Allow restricting access to the Adapter to only allow configuration by specific users

We want to make sure that we have more control over who can update an Adapter. Is there a way to add a login or other restriction to only permit certain users to be able to modify Adapters, similar to how, with PI Connectors, only specific Windows...

Ability to disable file renaming for AVEVA Adapter for Structured Data Files or PI UFL products.

The pharma industry has to abide to GMP regulations, in this scenario, the original files should not be modified or renamed. It would be good to have an end to end solution with PI System products instead of making copies of the original file.

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...
