    Allow Creation of Acknowledgeable Event Frames

    The PI Web API exposes a "CanBeAcknowledged" property when reading Event Frames. However, this property is read-only: it cannot be supplied when creating a new Event Frame or updating an existing Event Frame. I would like the ability to include th...

    These were removed from the 2018 SP3 install kit as OSI found many customers removed these tags and interfaces after installation. However, our experience is the opposite and these tags are massively useful for diagnostic, experimental and trainin...

    Mass create data source list for PI Connector

    For the PI Connector for EtherNet IP you can have up to 100 data sources. Typing in all of them is tedious. It would be nice if we could copy/paste information from Excel OR have a structured import/export file to the data source list.
