Add AVEVA Adapters to the Enterprise Agreement

Before, one of the main attractions of the Enterprise Agreement (EA) was that you get unlimited access to all standard PI Interfaces and PI Connectors. However, now that AVEVA Adapters are the successors to PI Interfaces and PI Connectors, and sin...

Detect and monitor which OPC UA server the PI Adapter is connected to

When configuring a PI Adapter to leverage server-level redundancy, it is not currently possible to monitor which server instance the PI Adapter is connected to. Surfacing this information would allow server administrators to better monitor the hea...
Giulio Cattarin over 3 years ago in AVEVA™ Adapters / AVEVA Adapter for OPC UA 3 Future consideration

An option to store symmetric keys in a file - OPC UA

It would be helpful to be able to read network trace between OPC UA Server and Adapter even if communication is encrypted. This possibility is described here https://www.unified-automation.com/news/news-details/analyzing-encrypted-opc-ua-traffic-w...

Make the Agent recrawl the AF/PI Point database from scratch

Make the agent recrawl the AF/PIPoint database from scratch every now and again and update its cache if required. I think this is what PI Vision does, so it doesn't have these limitations.

Provide Release Notes that consolidate all past product changes

When assessing upgrades, we look at product enhancements found in the Release Notes. This proves difficult when the Release Notes only mention the product enhancements for the adjacent product releases and we are upgrading from an older version no...

Support OPC UA ReverseConnect

Support ReverseConnect, allowing for the connection to be establish from the more secure area where the OPC Server reside to the least secure area where the OPC Client / Adapter resides. This is implemented in many other client tools and SDK such...

Add another Archive Mode option for the PI Interface for UFL

There should be a way to configure the PI UFL interface to both discard duplicate events (same value at the same timestamp) and record multiple unique values for the same timestamp when these events come from multiple data files. For example, if...

Support an analogue to the "step" PI Point attribute when creating PI Points

Even though it will indeed be useful to be able to specify whether data should be retrieved in a step-wise fashion, for new PI Points (assuming you're writing data to a PI Connector), it's important to be able to specify that those tags should hav...

The DNP3 Adapter should support group 40

The interface supports this group. The Adapter does not (see https://docs.aveva.com/bundle/adapter-for-dnp3/page/1231146.html). It is essential that the Adapter have this identical feature as the interface, to allow it to read the same data and be...

Adapter for RDBMS to support multiple rows with same "Timestamp" colum as IndexColumn

As of version 1.x, with the IndexColumn being specified in the dataselection, the Adapter will require that each row in the source Database to have its own unique timestamp. If there are multiple rows with the same timestamp, first value with the ...
