Switch for using Name of AF Attributes from Browsable Name or Display Name

Add a Switch to the OPC UA Connector that we can choose if we want the AF Attributes to be created using "Browsable Name" or "Display Name". Using the Display Name would make it much easier for us to locate the Attribute and refer to its OPC Tag a...

Increase the default log size

The current default log size in the event viewer is 1MB. Although it can easily be increased, a larger default (100MB+) would allow to catch errors the first time they occur and allow for further troubleshooting then having to change it and have t...

Add a Boolean data type

Boolean variables are useful for reusing Boolean (sub)expressions, concise debugging of the value of a Boolean expression, and extraction and storage of Boolean values before writing to Int32 PI status tags (e.g. on/off status, open/closed status).

Be able to modify the PI Point prefix from the PI Connector for UFL administration page

It does not make sense that edits to some of the PI Connector for UFL's JSON files can be done through the administration page, but not all. The administration page should be a 1-stop configuration shop.

Allow dynamic parameters in URL

Often third party web API needs input parameters so static URL is not enough. Sometimes parameters are simple, e.g. current data, or can be derived from PI tags; these could be set with placeholder in configuration.

Install and configure more than one PI Connector Relay instance per server

At local industrial sites, we deploy use cases different in nature and end user consumption in separated AF DBs, like OEE, PSM, Autoclave, utilities, etc. We need to centralize these individually into our central PI System. We need to segregate th...

Enable setting tag attributes in MQTT Connector

The MQTT Connector should have ways to set tag attributes. There should be way to set the default compression and exception settings and also other tag attributes like point and data security.

OPC UA 2.x - Health information and connector statistics

In the PI Connector for OPC UA 1.3.x, some very useful statistics are available - Events in DA queue, Data rate, Variables Numbe - but 2.0.x these items are not available anymore. Those items should be available for data selection to be monitored ...

Allow the AF root element name to be configurable

The root element in AF is determined by the Connector code.  Allow the name of the root element to be specified by the user.
