Gauge: Scales inside

Visually link items

I would like to easily draw a broken arrow linking 2 graphical elements, so that they are visually linked together. This way, I could describe the flow of a process and, if I move a graphical element, I won't have to edit the complex set of lines ...

Remove conflict between TAU framework and PIBufSS

We should be able to use buffering on one tag that is fed by the connector, in case there are moments when data has to be primed into it using AFSDK.

Be able to point the PI Connector for UFL to INI files

Please allow INI files to be pointed to by saving their full path, just like the PI Interface for UFL, rather than saving a copy of an uploaded INI file. This makes editing, testing, debugging, etc. much easier.

Batch interface to support slightly different parsing logic

Some of the fields incoming from the DCS are user entered and prone to errors. Please allow for the option to include slightly different logics to be able to filter out those user errors (such as empty spaces at the end of the string, etc).

Create event frames from DeltaV Alarms & Events (EMDVB)

Alarm tags created by EMDVB can be difficult to analyze at scale. Event frames are a natural format for alarms because they have start and end times, durations, and can have different severities. PI client tools allow simple querying of event fram...
