RELATED IDEAS

Add point Type INT64, UINT64, to PI Archive

Some interfaces such as PI Modbus allow the polling of a 64-bit signed integer value or a 64-bit unsigned integer value. Yet the database does not allow you to store these values in their native formats. You must store them as a 64-bit floating point but some precision is lost. Please add the ability to store these values in their native format.

    It's kind of incredible that AF claims points can be Int64, but when anything above an int32 is passed to the data archive, it cuts off after Int32.MaxValue.

    We're forced to either store this bitmask as a string, or split it into two Int32s.

    64bit values would be very helpful!

    In our current project Powermeters store their energy count as INT64 values and we think that the use of such devices will increase in future sustainability projects.

    These days, adding support for anything 64-bit is probably more important than keeping support for anything 32-bit.

    This is so needed, so frustrating not having this type.
