Clarification on Under/Over Range?

When trying to enter negative values into a tag I get "Under Range." Reading up on this issue I'm seeing that the zero and span of the tag are supposed to be set to encompass the acceptable range . Is that wrong? The current tag in question is set to Float32. The Zero and Span are set to cover the acceptable range. And yet I'm still getting… (Show more Show less)

Update a static attribute inside event frame

Hello, I have the following challenge - there are event frames containing some data regarding a particular production order. The event frames are created and closed based on the data stream flowing via PI. The thing is that I have one value, which is delivered later (a few days later usually) and should be included into particular event frames.… (Show more Show less)

Hi Samanvitha To connect to OPC UA server and get data using OPC UA connector either you need to configure Root NodeID's or include Data Access Filter file with node e.g(ns=*;s=*/0:Simulation) and items i.e. OPCUA server tag1,OPCUA server tag2. AF will automatically create tags based on the configuration and start collecting data as per the…

Hi Azeem, Check if the PI Interface service is running with a service account, check if it has pibufss dependency, and record the existing version of PI Interface. Then backup the .bat files within the interface folder. After that, perform the upgrade by running the installation kit and check if the tags are updating after the PI Interface was…

How to automate renaming of AF Server

Currently, we have a test environment consisting of a PI data archive and PI AF server. Currently, when we want to refresh the test environment, the underlying SQL database (PIFD) is copied down on-demand from our production environment. Following this copy down, there are a number of manual steps that I have to take in order to prep the… (Show more Show less)

TrentHuhn (to Eugene Lee) 3 weeks ago (Show more Show less)

Thanks, this seemed to work. I ended up creating a small console application using the AF SDK that can be run from the command line to rename the AF server. static void Main(string[] args) { string afServerName = "", runType = "", oldAFserverName = ""; if (args.Length > 0) { runType = args[0].ToString(); …

Team, what are the benefits beside, easy configuration, to use OPC UA vs PI OPC Interface? One particular use case that I see for OPC UA is monitoring the state of the OPC Servers. Since you can write directly to AF, this facilitate the creation of monitoring tools and notifications.

Is there a way to set a value as questionable using an analysis in PISE?

Is there a way to mark an attribute value as questionable using an analysis? What I'm looking for is this: I have a Temperature attribute. Every time a new value comes in it's checked to make sure it's within a range. Say -30 to 130. If it's outside that range mark the value as questionable. Is that possible? Thanks for your time.

Is it possible for users to write their own analytics functions

It was possible to extend the functionality of earlier versions of PI-AF by writing your own Data Reference functions. Will something similar be available for Analytics? Can we extend the available functions with user written ones?

Our goal is to first allow connectivity with 3rd party calculation engines. We have many customers that have a repository of code written in 3rd party calculation engines such as MatLab that we…

Hi Paresh, The last version of WebParts is 2013 SP3 which was released prior to SharePoint 2016 release and we haven’t officially test the PI Web Parts on SharePoint 2016. Therefore, we can’t give a recommendation for SharePoint 2016.
