Add ‘No Replace’ mode to UFL Connector

Configure target PI/AF/DB at datasource level

Mass create data source list for PI Connector

For the PI Connector for EtherNet IP you can have up to 100 data sources. Typing in all of them is tedious. It would be nice if we could copy/paste information from Excel OR have a structured import/export file to the data source list.
