    DNP3 Interface specify Class for scans

    Create some way to configure PI Points belonging to a DNP3 interface instance such that the interface only requests data for a single class (Class 1/Class 2/Class 3) and not all three? Essentially, an event scan that will request one specified Cla...

    Mention the PI ICU in the names of PI Generic Names DLL and PI Spt DLL in Programs And Features

    Both PI Generic Names DLL and PI Spt DLL are part of the PI Interface Configuration Utility, but this is not obvious from their names. This can cause confusion or waste time when an administrator decides to clean up or replace some PI programs but...
