Overload the Convert function to allow a input UoM and output UoM for unitless values

For unitless values you can assign a unit of measure by using the Convert() function. To further convert this to another UoM in the same class you need to nest another Convert() function. For example, Convert(Convert(3600, "s"), "h")) It would sim...

Remove Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools For Office Runtime (VSTO Runtime) from any install kits that contain PI AF Client

According to this, VSTO Runtime is included with PI AF Client for the sake of PI Builder. The installation of VSTO Runtime also causes the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable to be installed as well. However, accordin...

Pi Notifications should have smarts to exclude or N/A message body content for excluded attributes created from templates.

Pi Notifications should have smarts to exclude or N/A message body content for excluded attributes created from templates. Currently if we have say 4 attributes in an element template, and some instance elements have a couple of those "excluded", ...

Add severity as a notification trigger criteria

Sometimes we have cases where we want to create the event but do not send a notification if the severity is low. I think it would be beneficial if we could add the severity as a criteria for notifications, that way we can choose at which point the...

Utilisting exisiting PI Datalink functions within Asset Framework for attributes

PI AF attributes (used for analyses) lacks the ability to filter for conditional values. (e.g. the function PIAdvCalcFilVal). Often data can be represented poorly for calculations and there isnt an easy way to filter the outliers and use that valu...

Ability to define if an analysis will be inherited from a base template.

I would like to easily define if a derived template will inherit an analysis. This derived template should have a check box on the analysis that says: 'Do not Inherent'. Without this option I have to disable the analyses mapped to the derived temp...

Installer screen should read 'PI Data Archive Install Directory' instead of 'PI Data Archive Directory'

For an upgrade - misleading - could be interpreted as the folder where PI archives currently reside.

Add Archive Statistics to AFSDK

I would like to be able to request current Event Queue, Primary Event Queue, and Archive Events counters programmatically in order to perform my own throttling when backfilling from external systems. This becomes especially important if you also h...

Write Event Frame analysis outputs to attributes at the child level

We often write outputs at close to event frame attributes that reference a PI Point attribute on the referenced element. The analysis will not write to an EF attribute if it points to a referenced element attribute at the child level. In the examp...

Document and have a dialouge that informs the user that Analysis backfilling does not observe compression settings.

Currently when backfilling an analysis with the PI Buffer Subsystem turned on, all values are sent to the PI Data Archive uncompressed. This is because values are perceived as out of order and these settings are not observed. This should be mentio...
