    Currently, if you install a new version of a PI Connector, the PIPointPrefix.config.json file is silently overwritten and reverted back to the default. For users that do not use the default prefix, this means that data gets recorded in the wrong t...

    Minify the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code of the 1st-generation PI Connectors

    The HTML code of the administration pages of these PI Connectors is over 3000 lines long and is very unoptimized. It also seems like most of the CSS and JavaScript code is inline and so is not taking full advantage of HTTP/2's multiplexing. Pleas...

    Ability to update the AF Server name in Data Collection Manager without Recreating the Destination

    Currently, it is not possible to update the AF Server name in the DCM without recreating the Destination. This process is prone to errors since the configuration for the AF and PI Data Archive servers needs to be recreated. Having the ability to ...

    When the point count maximum defined in the license file has been exceeded, this interrupts real-time data flow for all PI Connectors until the error is cleared. This affects an reports or time-sensitive operations relying on production data. Data...

    Preserve variable-attribute mapping upon attribute path change

    Currently, if a variable is mapped to an attribute and the attribute's AF path changes, the variable must be remapped to the attribute. Instead of relying on the attribute's full path to identify the attribute, each attribute should be identified...

    EnableAutoBackFilling for specified AF analyses

    Is it possible to enable or disable the parameter EnableAutoBackFilling for different group of Analysis in different database.   The idea is to not have same  parameter EnableAutoBackFilling for all Analysis of all databases on the same ...

    AF function PrevEvent() should return timestamp of previous event even if data is "No Data"

    Normally AF function PrevEvent() returns the timestamp of the previous event for a specified timestamp. But if the previous event is system digital state "No Data" it does not return the timestamp but again system digital state "No Data". That is...

    Compression (with the opposite intention)

    If you have a PI Tag that fluctuates within very excessive ranges, then it becomes quite difficult to observe its trending patterns in a chart because of its volatility. A feature to smooth the volatile values (i.e. exclude those outside of a use...
