Analytics & Calculations

I find myself making analytics on child elements which by themselves have limited value, but are needed to get rollup analyses to work. This adds complexity to the design of AF. Two ideas would improve this: 1) Count # of attributes that meet a c...

I would like to create a custom AFAnalysisRule that allows us to leverage the resources on the PI Analysis Service to perform calculations that the Analysis Service currently cannot perform. These calculations include matrix operations, array oper...

We have many calculations following this basic pattern - take recorded values of one attribute, apply a filter (using FilterData), then retrieve values of a second attribute at the filtered timestamps of the first attribute. Currently, we cannot r...

For unitless values you can assign a unit of measure by using the Convert() function. To further convert this to another UoM in the same class you need to nest another Convert() function. For example, Convert(Convert(3600, "s"), "h")) It would sim...

Hello, We have a use case that would benefit from being able to insert into an AFTable from an analysis. This would work in the same way that event frames do, where a trigger condition is meet that causes the row to be inserted. The variables from...

Consider implementation performance analysis service statistics in AF Explorer which is now performed in a complicated way by exporting data to Excel, rearranging and viewing in a pivot table. It would also be useful to be able to retrieve that da...

I want to be able to link an EventFrame to the Primary Parent of the Element the EF analysis is defined on. E.g. i use a child element to a Unit to contain the logic to detect and generate downtime events. However, i want the downtime event to li...

As a user configuring notifications I want to include categories in my formatted message so that I can contextualize the alert based on data already in the system.

Working with AF Analysis the following usability enhancements are requested. 1.  Clicking on an analysis variable to edit it would automatically put your cursor at the beginning of the variable string.  Current behavior is: you click on...

I would like to build an analysis that generates an event frame when one of the referenced PI points is unavailable - i.e. the point does not exist, permissions are missing, or the Data Archive server is unavailable. Currently when these conditio...
