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...

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...

Bitmask Functionality in AVEVA PI OPC UA Adapter
