Simple logic for animations.

As is is now, animations can only be associated with one PI point. So, if you need something to animate based on simple AND or OR logic, you have to build the logic first in PI and then tie the animation to it. Why can't we have simple AND, OR, NO...

Pop up displays.

Add backgrounds to displays using any common image file.

If this were possible, I could use screenshots of my DeltaV (or any other HMI) displays and then overlay PI animations on top of the background. This would allow me to make a "copy" of my DeltaV graphics in PI vision. Users would feel more comfort...

Data Collection Manager User management

We are running a central DCM Server in our site to maintain the dataflow between different UA Connectors and different DataArchive/AF pairs. We use this DCM to restart Connectors and to browse and select new Tags on a OPC UA Server. As central Ad...

Ability to use templates from a different database

On the AF server we have things structured in different databases. When working in a database it would be great if I could use a database template (e.g. element template) from a different database. In some cases these templates are valid for both ...

Harmonize Attribute Editor and Attribute Template Editor

Currently Attribute Template Editor and Attribute Editor behave different regarding visualisation of templates when using derived templates. Attribute Template Editor shows the attributes of the base template only if Group By Template is checked....
