    Uni-Int to write to scan-class health tags on startup

    We've noticed this particularly with the RDBMS-PI interface when configured for failover: Health tags that are only written to when the interface becomes primary or has completed its first scan (eg Point Count, Scan Class I/O Rate etc.) say 'Intf ...

    Separate commonly used PI Interfaces that do not have a successor into read-only and write-only versions

    Currently, it is recommended to use the read-only version of a PI Interface if only reading is required, and to have separate read and write instances of the read-write version of a PI Interface if writing is required. (Reference: https://docs.osi...

    There is a stronger market demand to have more alarm data in PI so that the alarms can be analysed together with the process data. Existing (as of Oct 2019) PI OPC AE Interface does not support history recovery. Without the history recovery featur...

    EMDVB - Add Option to End Procedure EF with batchview.endtime equivalent instead of when it's unloaded from the BOI

    Currently the EMDVB interface will not end the parent Procedure level event frame until the batch has been unloaded from the Delta Batch Operator Interface. It is very common for users to leave batches loaded for quite a while which causes batches...

    Batch interfaces keeping merged child operation EventFrames open until the parent Operation EventFrame has been closed.

    Currently for batch interfaces using the /MUP parameter, child operation event frames might be reopened and closed multiple times until the last operation event frame closes and the child event frame is closed for good. For example with UnitProced...

    EMDVB Data Type Enhancement

    Please include option in the DeltaV EMDVB interface that can handle the timestamp format used with .evt files. Currently, if in the interface a trigger is used with a property, the timestamp format in the .evt file is retained, which cannot be sto...

    Enhance pitopi.ini sections to include point source to make them unique

    The pitopi.ini file is used by the pitopi interface for collecting data from multiple sources and to save other miscellaneous settings such as 'histonly' flags. The configuration ini file uses sections to separate settings between instances with a...

    PItoPI should give indication when it is stuck querying a corrupt source archive

    Currently, PItoPI interface can get "stuck" if it is querying a source data archive that is corrupt with no indication that this is what's happening.  It appears to be sending data to the destination server, but no data is received.  It ...

    Support Analysis Backfill of Source Tag

    Many of our source tags sending data to a central Data Archive are populated with data from analyses on the source AF Server. This creates two problems when we perform a backfill that recalculates data over a specified timespan for the source tag:...

    PI EFGen 4.1+ has limited recovery capabilities

    Up to PI EFGen 4.0, we were able to backfill OOO Event Frames by simply inputting the start and end time of the corresponding period. Since 4.1, this must be done in a per-event basis, since larger time ranges are modified so that RST matches the ...
