Configurable input REST data queue file size for PI Connector for UFL

We're working with a large AMI customer, using the PI Connector for UFL as a REST server endpoint to receive meter data. However, during large interrogations, the amount of messages received can be faster than UFL can process, leading to overflowi...

UFL Timezone Conversion

Supported timestamps are currently limited to Local or UTC timezones. Data sources may not be configurable to provide timestamps in supported formats. There currently exists no robust or simple way of converting between timezones using the UFL...

On startup, the Connector currently waits for the configured scan frequency time to pass before doing its first scan. There are cases where a low scan frequency (e.g. once per day) is required. This results in an unnecessary delay before the Conne...

Be able to modify the PI Point prefix from the PI Connector for UFL administration page

It does not make sense that edits to some of the PI Connector for UFL's JSON files can be done through the administration page, but not all. The administration page should be a 1-stop configuration shop.

Configure target PI/AF/DB at datasource level

Actually the UFL Connector sends data to all of the listed PI Data Archives and AF Servers in the server list configured in administration page, so it's not possible to send different data to different PI DA or AF databases with a single UFL Conne...

Add scan time offset option to UFL Connector

Use case: The UFL Connector needs to read a huge data set from a REST Server which is updated once a day. The only way to control when the data fetch occurs is by starting the connector at the desired time. The Connector however currently waits fo...
