    By default, do not install the PI Module Database Builder when the PI System Management Tools install kit is run

    Similar to how the PI DataLink install kit included PI DataLink (Legacy) but required manual modification to setup.ini in order to install it (this was before PI DataLink Legacy was dropped from the PI DataLink install kit entirely), the PI Module...

    Make the tuning parameter PointDb_RemoveEmptySource visible by default

    This tuning parameter toggles the automatic deletion of unused point sources. By default, it is hidden and the automatic deletion is disabled. Point sources are used mainly for PI Interfaces, which are slowly being replaced with PI Connectors and...

    Expose "Tuning Parameters" in AFSDK

    It would be very intesting to access tuning parameters (that are present in PI SMT) via AFSDK. This is interesting when you have to manage dozens of PI DA servers and you want to ensure they are all correctly configured (and no change are performe...

    Optimize SID resolution when viewing mappings in PI System Explorer

    In PI System Explorer → File → Server Properties, the Mappings tab loads much more slowly than the other tabs when you have a slow connection to the PI servers and the domain controller. In tech support case 00589952, I found that the loading time...

    Allow bools to be unpacked from Integers

    AF should allow you to have a PI Point Data Reference as individual bits within an INT. Ex. PIPOINTA is an int16 or int32. PIPOINTA.0 and PIPOINTA.1...etc.. should be able to be mapped to a bool attribute. (where .0 is the 0th spot in the integer ...

    PI System Explorer Git

    As a user I NEED a more user friendly approach to saving various versions of my databases inside of AF. Currently every change requires a manual export xml which we have to save with the current date. Then we use a word document to track those cha...

    If a PI Point doesn't exist for an element attribute as part of a template, allow us to link the tag value to null. Currently if the PI point doesn't exist, the integrator or other client tools will raise PI point not found message. To get around ...
