    Remote PI ICU

    Regardless of where interface info are stored (PI Module DB or AF), it would be useful to have a remote client tool allowing administrator users to configure interfaces  like they do with tags and AF objects. Today when you have to change con...

    OPC Alarms&Events interface should natively support event frame creation

    As a PI Interface for OPC Alarms & Events user that would like to leverage AF Event Frames for more advanced analysis, I would like for the OPC AE interface to have an option to natively create event frames that open when a Status = Active mes...

    Link Referenced Elements from Unitprocedure to Procedure Event

    When Eventframe Batches are created by a Batch Interface, the used Unit in the plant is created as Element in AF and linked to the Unitprocedure EventFrame. Unfortunately it is not linked to the parent Procedure Event, leaving the "referenced Elem...

    Support Analysis Backfill of Source Tag

    Many of our source tags sending data to a central Data Archive are populated with data from analyses on the source AF Server. This creates two problems when we perform a backfill that recalculates data over a specified timespan for the source tag:...

    PI PerfMon tags to support Timestamp DataType

    There are some performance counters that are Date and Time based. PI PerfMon tags have to be configured as Float32 or Int32 and at PI AF it has to be converted by using PI Analysis or Formulas. Would be easier to configure, maintenance and to bu...

    Suppress creation of an AF Element hierarchy

    As a PI Admin, I may have already created a AF Element Hierarchy corresponding to my BES or MES source data. Therefore I have no need for the interface to create a new AF Elements and I would like to suppress this completely.

    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 PI SDK has, in turn, been superseded by PI AF SDK.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...

    PI BES Interface (i.e. PI EMDVB): aliasing of Unit Names

    Currently the interface creates PI UnitBatches or Event Frames associated to Units (PI Units or AF Elements) determined by some placeholders specified at the "Unit Procedure" level; the default is "[AREA]\[PROCESSCELL]\[UNIT]". Moreover the inter...

    Store Tagdata in Batch Eventframe

    Our customer want to have the ability to build Batch Reports centrally in AF so that several Applications can access the same data. We are already transmitting batch data as Event Frames from our DCS batch package like Simatic Batch and others to...

    Create event frames from DeltaV Alarms & Events (EMDVB)

    Alarm tags created by EMDVB can be difficult to analyze at scale. Event frames are a natural format for alarms because they have start and end times, durations, and can have different severities. PI client tools allow simple querying of event fram...
