several Instances for PI Relay

Having the PI Relay for OPC UA Connector running on a different machine than the actual connector is a good Idea, as we are now able to provide Windows credentials for AF Access without Credential manager. On our Site we are running several small...

Option to install sample PI tags with simulator interfaces

Posted on behalf of a customer. As of PI Server 2018 SP3, simulator interfaces have been removed from the PI Server setup kit, and the default PI Points are no longer installed. These were very important to check if the server installation went w...

Separate priority setting for Data Read and Data Write

Data Read and Date Write (Buffering) from/to PI Data Archive is based on the priority settings in PI SDK and PSE. We have a architecture of 6 member PI collective and all the source data is not buffered to the individual collective. Hence for othe...
