Analytics & Calculations

Additional capabilities for rollup analyses

I find myself making analytics on child elements which by themselves have limited value, but are needed to get rollup analyses to work. This adds complexity to the design of AF. Two ideas would improve this: 1) Count # of attributes that meet a c...

AF Function Call to test for existence of a PI tag

Some Analytics fail due to a tag not existing. It is possible to test for a Bad value via the BadVal() function, however, this does not work if the tag does not exist. Consequently the equation will not run. This caused me many hours of debugging ...

Add support to create custom AFAnalysisRule plugins

I would like to create a custom AFAnalysisRule that allows us to leverage the resources on the PI Analysis Service to perform calculations that the Analysis Service currently cannot perform. These calculations include matrix operations, array oper...

Add Continue() Function To Asset Analytics

Similar to the Exit() function, a Continue() function would be very helpful in reducing the calculation load on my analysis service, in this case by not fully executing variables if a condition is true. For example, if I'm evaluating the state of ...

Define time for analysis "evaluate" button to make debugging faster

Currently, the evaluate button can run your evaluation at the current timestamp and the last scheduled time. It would be really helpful to key in a 3rd timestamp to diagnose edge cases. The current workaround involves putting dummy variables in to...

TagTot should make use of input UOM when no output UOM is defined

TagTot will automatically account for UOM that have the time dimension as something other than per day only when the input has an assigned UOM and the function has an output UOM defined. It would be friendlier if the output UOM was defaulted based...

Quadratic Regression

Add a quadratic regression function similar to "LinRegr". This would be helpful for trending relationships that are not linear, such as flow vs. pressure.

Analysis timerule option: Add a possibility to make the timerule conservative. Emit calculation events only if the snapshot time of all inputs are more recent than the planned calculation time.

Now the TimeRules Natural and Periodic emit events to the Data PIPE in case NATURAL: an event is received by one of the selected inputs case PERIOD: when a certain timespan elapse.Both method doesn't take into account that some input of the analys...

New analysis to perform insert into AFTable

Hello, We have a use case that would benefit from being able to insert into an AFTable from an analysis. This would work in the same way that event frames do, where a trigger condition is meet that causes the row to be inserted. The variables from...

Provide a tool (in PSE?) to assist management of analytics scheduling offsets

We recommend customers use offsets to distribute scheduled calculations across time but there is not a good way manage this.Propose some utility to list a group of all scheduled analyses by same period, users supply X number of offsets and then th...
