Allow AVEVA Adapter for Modbus TCP to collect data on INT64 and UINT64 registers

Certain equipment is providing energy data under INT64 or UNIT64 register types. However, the Adapter currently only supports FLOAT64, which is not compatible. We want to be able to configure the Adapter for Modbus TCP to collect data on INT64 and...

Rename "Compressed Data" to "Archived Data"

In the PI DataLink tab in the Ribbon, "Compressed Data" should be renamed to "Archived Data" since it actually retrieves archived data and not just compressed data. The icon should also be changed accordingly. Not all data in the PI Data Archive n...

Expand Healthpoint (Device Status) Information of the PI Adapter for Modbus TCP from Component to "Device" Level

When configuring PI Modbus TCP adapter you first define a component level and under this type you define your different devices/machines/sensors. In case of a broken connection to one of the devices the healthpoints currently only deliver the stat...

Rename "Timed Data" to "Data At Timestamps"

When I see "Timed Data", I think: "Well of course my data is timed! But what does this button do?". "Timed Data" retrieves interpolated/archived values at the given timestamps. Please rename "Timed Data" to better reflect this. I recommend "Data A...

Support for "RTU over TCP" for Modbus Adapter using MBAP header

Challenge: Today, the PI Adapter for Modbus TCP does not natively support " RTU over TCP". It does support Modbus TCP, so as long as the "bridge" properly converts Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP (including the MBAP header), it should work fine. If the b...

Allow multiple references to holding register for bit extraction

Given a 16bit integer holding register, in certain instances we only care for specific bits rather the integer value. Using the bitmap allows the selection of those specific bits but you can only reference the register once. i.e. In data selection...

Replace "https://techsupport.osisoft.com" in PI DataLink's About window

The link redirects to myOSIsoft. The link should be revised so that it does not redirect and possibly so that it leads to a different page instead. Either that or the link can be eliminated entirely.

Rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time"

"Time Filtered" was meant to be interpreted as "Time [Spent] Filtered", but it can easily be misinterpreted as "Time[-]Filtered" (i.e. filtered by time, i.e. Compressed Data). Please rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time" so that the name bett...

Accept HEX numbers for Register offsets in data selection

Most modbus equipment providers provide information using registers in Hex format i.e. 0x0000 ~ 0xFFFF. It would be nice if the offset could accept this to avoid error in conversions HEX to DEC. Would make things alot more seamless/easier.
