    Elements are not always assets

    Elements are not always assets but PIVIsion always calls elements, assets. (Ex. search criteria for template type. event frames have Reference Assets. But not all EF' come from assets. Can we keep the term element in PIVision instead of asset to a...

    allow manual event frames

    Allow the PIVision user to manually enter an EF based on their particular observation. Many times bad things happen and the pi tag data is not yet being monitored for this failure condition. This allows everyone to have a larger voice recorded in ...

    Avoid reloading tags after edits of non-key PI Point attributes

    Currently, UniInt-based interfaces will reload a tag if edits are detected on any of the PI Point attributes. This is not ideal as edits to non-key attributes (such as EngUnits) will still cause a tag to be reloaded, potentially leading to data so...

    Double check window required when deleting an instance in PI Event Frames Interface Manager

    As a PI System Admin, I would like to see a confirmation window (acceptation pop-up message), when deleting Interface instances in PI Event Frames Interface Manager. This would minimize the deletion of the instances by error.

    Currently when running any event frame generator interface (EFGen, PIFTBatch, etc.) in history recovery mode, there is no way to monitor progress of the actual history recovery. The only way to determine status is to check message logs periodicall...
