PI Interface for UFL

Showing 31 of 5208

Change UFLDesigner to use .NET 4.6.2 or above

Currently, the UFL Designer uses .NET 3.5, which, unless you install during initial server configuration, is next to impossible to install later on if you have a server on a protected domain with no internet access. Installing .NET 3.5 also requir...

File name extensions "_OK" and "BAD" / Deletion of correctly read lines

We operate a UFL interface that evaluates CSV files with additional analysis data and reads data for existing PI tags, storing the values (including timestamps) in the PI server archives. Our UFL interface is not permitted to create PI tags. I hav...

Support Regex engine in the message filters

It would be nice to have regex matching and replace in PI UFL ini files. Also, would be nice to have anything other than ASCII encoding support (ex UTF-8..with/without BOM, etc) Use cases: ex. we need to parse timestamps where year has either 2 o...

UFL Interface - Increase UFL designer sample data file size limit beyond 50 KB

The UFL designer currently limits the sample data file size to 50 KB. This requires users to truncate their text files until it is below this limit.

There is no way to easily delete data in a time range if you want the changes to occur on both the primary and secondary data archive. It seems the UFL interface would be good to use to do this. You could provide it a tag name and time range and t...

and operator

Add a function that can be used in the UFL Configuration File to perform bitwise operations. For example, a function similar to the AND operator in Performance Equations and Asset Analytics.

Add TCP option to PI UFL Interface

Currently the only two options are file reading or a serial interface. But what if you have ASCII data streaming from a TCP/telnet source? The configuration would be almost the same as serial - for the connection, rather than a serial port, just n...

PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...
