    Please upgrade the most commonly used PI Interfaces so that the only Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable version that they require is the 2015-2022 version. This will reduce the size of the install kit, make it faster to download, make it faster ...

    Avoid reloading tags after edits of non-key PI Point attributes

    Currently, UniInt-based interfaces will reload a tag if edits are detected on any of the PI Point attributes. This is not ideal as edits to non-key attributes (such as EngUnits) will still cause a tag to be reloaded, potentially leading to data so...

    UNIINT Interfaces and Connectors should be able to retry an output event if output write fails

    When an interface fails writing to a DCS system, the interface writes a failure status to the output tag and goes on.  User has requested an option to have an output tag retry after write failure. It would be good to have this functionality i...

    Support data collection across data diodes or similar technology

    Regulatory and/or security requirement to separate data collection from data storage using a one-way data flow. Could apply to Interfaces or Connectors, for example PI Interface for Emerson Ovation. PI Interface/Connector -> one-way data flow -...

    UniInt should include a test mode for all interfaces that collects data but does not send it to PI.

    This functionality would allow users to test the connection to the data source and inspect the data that is retrieved without sending it to PI. That data might be written to a text file, for example. This would allow users to verify settings and ...

    Ability to wait successful connection to PI Data Archive and download PI point information during startup

    (Posted on behalf of our customer) It can reduce the chance of startup failure because of the connection to PI Data Archive time-out. It's also helpful if interface can reduce time to get PI point information from PI Data Archive.

    Retire 32-bit versions of PI Interfaces that have a 64-bit version

    These days, 32-bit operating systems are used for 1 of 2 reasons: Somebody accidentally installed the 32-bit version instead of the 64-bit version, which is a mistake that OSIsoft has no obligation to accommodate. The computer is very old, in whic...

    Migrate the PI Universal Interface (UniInt) Framework to use PI AF SDK

    Most PI Interfaces are based on the PI Universal Interface (UniInt) Framework and rely on PI API and its successor, PI SDK. PI SDK has, in turn, been superseded by PI AF SDK. PI SDK also relies on the deprecated and insecure ActiveX technology, wh...

    BUG: GE HABConnect with BitContainers

    I have a case that was closed in 2017, where someone provided a workaround executable for the Interface that fixed the issue. I am assuming they were able to detect a bit container field if the MASK was set for the pitag, but unsure. However after...
