AVEVA™ Adapters

Prioritize user-friendliness over reflecting the configuration file

Currently, the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility is a program that lets you enter data into the configuration file without having to type parameter names and while having some protection against invalid inputs (e.g. a check box for true/false va...

Show the description/documentation of parameters in a tooltip, possibly for a ⓘ icon

I find myself switching between the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility and the documentation of the AVEVA Adapter to ensure that I know how to set a parameter. It would be much easier if the description/documentation of each parameter was shown i...

Be able to reference an external file that contains a query

Currently, the AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS requires the query to be entered as an input, and it is not as easy to edit, meaning that the current best say to manage a query for this AVEVA Adapter is to keep it in an external file, edit it, and make sur...

For query strings for the AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS, provide a larger, resizable text box that preserves new-line characters

Currently, the text box for the query strings (for queries against the data source) for the AVEVA Adapter For RDBMS is the same as any other text box. It spans only a single line and is not resizable, and its width is limited by the width of the r...

AVEVA™ Adapter For Ping

I realize that there is already a PI Interface For Ping and a PI Connector For Ping, but that logic didn't stop other AVEVA Adapters from being created (e.g. AVEVA Adapter For BACnet). An AVEVA Adapter For Ping would allow us to continue to check ...

Allow multiple instances of an AVEVA Adapter to exist on the same server without using Docker

Currently, there can be only 1 instance of a specific AVEVA Adapter on each server if Docker is not used. However, within that instance, multiple components and data sources can be configured. This is convenient, but then the service account for t...

Rename services to reflect the renaming of the product

AVEVA Adapters were previously called "PI Adapters", but the name of any AVEVA Adapter service begins with "PIAdapter". The PI To CONNECT Agent was previously called the "PI To Data Hub Agent", but the service name is still "PIToDataHubAgent". I'm...

PI Adapter for OPC UA should be able to write outputs to the OPC UA Server

The PI Adapter should be able to create a data pipe listener on certain streams (unsolicited reads) that would trigger the writes back to the OPC UA Server. This is useful when providing set points to the equipment without the need of establishin...
