    PI Tag Mapping configuration in the background of PI OPC UA Adapter to use Point ID

    The CSV / JSON file in the background will have the mapping between the OPC UA Server tag against its' respective PI Tag Name. In such case, if we need to change the tag name after sometime, then which results in multiple process like stop the Ada...

    Support for additional Complex Data Types for all Adapters

    Request to enhance the Adapters to support more complex data types, specifically value/quality pairs. While some Adapters currently support geolocation and coordinate complex data types, they do not all support value/quality data types. In industr...

    Allow files to be processed similarly to, or better than, the PI Connector For UFL (in particular, allow data to be manipulated before using or archiving it)

    The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data Files is supposed to be the successor to the PI Connector For UFL, but they work differently enough that each can handle certain types of files better than the other. The AVEVA Adapter For Structured Data File...

    Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

    Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...

    PI Adapter for OPC UA Array Support

    As a PI System Administrator, I would like for the PI Adapter for OPC UA to support array data types from the OPC UA Server. A large amount of our data may be contained within arrays on our OPC UA Server, so we would not currently be able to colle...

    Before publishing documentation, please review it, from start to finish, to catch and fix most issues

    Whether I was trying to learn about a product before using it or trying to configure a product, I ended up reading most of the documentation of several new or somewhat new AVEVA products, including: AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS AVEVA Adapter For St...

    Replace the Expand All/Collapse All menu of components with equivalent buttons

    The Expand All/Collapse All menu is meant to be more convenient than expanding or collapsing all components individually. However, it currently takes a click, a careful mouse movement, and another click to select an option. To make this even easie...

    Be able to duplicate and disable components

    The ability to duplicate components would give a better starting point for components that need to be configured similarly. For example, I like components that collect little data and do so infrequently to have no data filter and have the logging ...

    Start/stop components to be retained on restart

    Currently it is possible to stop a component for a running adapter. However, if the adapter is restarted the component will automatically start up. It would allow for extra control during commissioning, downtime, incidents, etc. to be able to disa...

    Be able to reorder components

    As an AVEVA Adapter gets used more, some components might need to be added or deleted, which can leave the component list in a suboptimal order. Please allow the components to be reordered, ideally by clicking and dragging for the most frictionles...
