Optimize tag search by introducing a setting allowing less precision when filtering a tag search by value (especially for float tags)

For example, when searching for Float32 tags with a value of -0.062 in PI System Management Tools, several results may appear, whereas no results appear in an equivalent tag search in PI DataLink. The value of the tag in PI SMT may display as -0.0...

Automatically check for updates

Please add a feature that automatically checks for updates when PI DataLink starts up. This way, the updates come to the user rather than the user having to check if there is an update.

Currently, the Root Path field of Datalink can be pointed to a single cell to retrieve the name of the Data Archive where the tag resides. It is not possible to specify an array of cells, as only the first Data Archive will be considered. There ...

Output at close option on EFGen

Allow some IF checking for TagPath to see if it exists or has a value before putting it on an Event Frame Attribute.

It would be useful to be able to add tags to Event Frame Attributes that only exist or have a value. This came up with a request to merge Batch and A&E so that Alarm Tags made by the A&E interface can be added to Event Frames made by the B...

EFGEN - Remove dependency for existing tags for interface to start up.

We recently ran into an issue where a few PI tags were retired, but the corresponding EFGEN interface configuration that used the tags were not retired. On the next reboot, the EFGEN interface would not start back up, since the tags could not be f...
