    Allow automatic interface restart based on Device Status

    In some cases, such as when using a tunneller, the PI interface for OPC DA requires a restart to resume collecting data. A feature that allows an automatic restart of the service based on the value of the Device status Health tag would avoid human...

    Convert incoming string data to float and provide division all in the same tag instead of a PE

    OPC server is outputting data with the currency data type (VT_CY) and it needs to be stored in the float type.  As per the OPCtoCSV document, the OPCtoCSV tool/OPC interface invokes VariantChangeType in order to convert this currency value to...

    Monitor data throughput for PI OPC DA interface

    Just knowing if the interface service is running is not enough. Knowledge of data throughput, events/sec, of PI OPC DA interface is needed to know if the OPC DA server is up and running and there are no connection issues.

    Add a configuration option to the OPC DA Interface so that the user can adjust the maximum advise tag exception delay for Event/Trigger tags

    This affect to delay in Event\Trigger points. KCS: Delay in Event Points. When using Event Points, we purposefully do have a delay (if excMax is > 2 s then 2 s else 0.9*excMax) for advise tags (Trigger Point) before they're sent to the PI Serv...

    Add a configuration option to UniInt so that the user can adjust the minimum wait time for checking for new events from the Update Manager

    This affects the delay in Event\Trigger tags. KCS: Delay in Event Points. The largest and most variable delay seems to come from the time the event is written to the PI Server and the time the interface (UniInt) picks, which is between 0ms-1,000m...

    Any Patches/Updates needed to be ready for Microsoft's DCOM hardening in 2023?

    By March 2023 Microsoft will enforce a patch that upgrades DCOM security. Some applications that use DCOM (such as the PI OPC interface) will require some updates to continue to work. Are there any updates that I need to apply on any of the PI com...

    PI interface for OPC DAの配列型タグ対応

    PI interface for OPC DAを配列タグ対応にしてほしい。東芝製DCSのデジタルデータの場合、状態を配列型で存在している(例：種別「PB8」、ITEM「LS1」の場合8ビット。種別「PB4」、ITEM「SS1」の場合4ビット)。この値を取得する際、1ビットずつ取得した後にAF演算で１つの値に計算している。対象全タグに対してこの処理を行うことは大変なので、interfaceのところで一度に全ビット取得し、1つの値として取り扱いたい。

    PI Interface for OPC DA and VT_ARRAY|VT_BSTR datatype

    PI Interface for OPC DA has a plugin called "Time Array" to manage numerical arrays but string arrays are not supported. It would be a good improvement to develop this feature for string arrays.

    Modifying the functionality of Trend Advise feature for PI OPC interface

    As a PI OPC Interface user I would like to get step-like trends whenever that the Trend Advise parameter is enabled (even with having large exception and compression deviations that filter some of the events) so that I don't need to enable the ste...

    debug an arbitrary number of tags belonging to a PI OPC interface instance

    It is currently possible to debug one tag, or all tags. Logging timestamp and data for all tags is expensive and make logs harder to read, so one one would like to select an arbitrary number of tags.
