Hello! There are still interfaces that use the PI API to connect to the PI Data Archive and trusts are still a valid way to authenticate those interfaces. However Mappings are more secure and can be used with the PI API 2016+. You can read more about how this would work here: customers.osisoft.com/s/knowledgearticle?knowledgeArticleUrl=AL00309

@@AVEVAPISystemLearning thx for the reply - just checked the documentation - still looks the same from 2018 release except the rebranding.

Hello, The PI Vision Display Utility can be used to change display settings like reassigning owners and changing role settings. See the documentation on this process here: docs.aveva.com/bundle/pi-vision/page/1009359.html

Hi Juan, Compressed Data is a not a volatile function and will not update with F9. Instead you have to use Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F9 as described here: docs.aveva.com/bundle/pi-datalink/page/1014216.html

@@AVEVAPISystemLearning There is an option to recalculate the entire exel sheet. Would that work too?

Hi Sanjay, we do not cover that specific adapter in this course, but there are enough similarities in the adapter framework that this course will get you most of the way there. If there are still gaps, I would then reference the documentation for the specific adapter you asked about here: docs.aveva.com/bundle/adapter-for-azure-event-hubs/page/1237841.html

Hi Victor, There is no native support in PI Vision for audible alarms. However this could be done with PI Vision Extensibility (custom code), which you can find out more about here: customers.osisoft.com/s/knowledgearticle?knowledgeArticleUrl=How-to-find-information-about-PI-Vision-Extensibility

Hello, it may be that the box is in front of the data items you are trying to select. If so, you can select the box and under the Arrange option choose Send to Back. Hopefully this works, but if you need more support please reach out to TechSupport at my.osisoft.com

@@AVEVAPISystemLearning YES! That worked. Thank you so much!

Hello, you should be able to check this on the course's virtual environment once you are registered and have deployed the environment. The link to the course is in the description.

Hello, If I understand what is happening correctly you are still seeing the trust rather than the mapping that is shown at 5:50. This is most likely due to the protocol order the SDK is using when you connect with SDK (which is what SMT is built on). You can change the protocol order in the PI SDK Utility under Connections -> Options to use Windows Authentication first (instead of the Trust), but that may have unintended consequences so proceed with caution.

There are many different options depending on what the 3rd party software is and your use case for the data. To discuss your specific use case please reach out to TechSupport at my.osisoft.com

Once a ProcessBook display is migrated to PI Vision, it can then be fully edited in PI Vision just as if you had created the display directly in PI Vision.

If you see a value of percent good less than 100% that indicates a problem with data coming from that data source. To investigate further you will need to identify the data source (usually an interface) and to proceed with troubleshooting that data source.

Hello, We do not recommend making queries against the backend SQL server of AF. If you are trying the get Event Frame attributes into Power BI we would recommend using the PI Integrator for Business Analytics. Alternatively you can use PI DataLink or PI Vision as a client to see Event Frame data, if you are looking for native PI tools outside of PI System Explorer.

Yes you can! For a end to end walkthrough of this I would recommend watching this video: czcams.com/users/live_2N6wWJsUf8?si=vIt4lq8fqfF9bz5D

The key issue with this calculation is defining peaks in a consistent way. Visually it can be easy to see peaks, but how we define that with the calculation syntax over a trend is not as easy. Is the 3 highest points? Points over a certain value threshold? Add to that storing the peak values in a way that we can then average in PI Vision is difficult. I would start by trying to capture the peak values you are interested in consistently. You may end up needing to use Asset Analytics for this as it is much more flexible with intermediate value storage in variables. For further help with this calculation I would reach out to TechSupport at my.osisoft.com.

To make a change like you are mentioning, you have to take into account when you want the analysis to reset and the timespan to calculate. From your comment I am not sure of either, but I will try to summarize. To generalize the equation used in the video, it would look something like this: IF <New Running Total Should Start Next Evaluation> THEN <Running Total Over Entire Timespan> ELSE <Continuing Running Total from Defined Start Time> To put this in more specific terms of the analysis you have to fill in the blanks for your case here: IF (< New Running Total Start Time>) THEN TagTot(<Tag>,<Previous Running Total Start Time>, '*') ELSE TagTot(<Tag>, <Current Running Total Start Time>, '*') If your start times on not has consistent and always the first day of the month, then you may have to use variables to define you times and then call then in the subsequent Total analysis.
