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...

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...

Include [optional] unit of measure in the data selection configuration.

Some data sources do not provide a unit of measure. It would be useful to be able to specify the unit of measure as part of the data configuration so that this information is provided to EDS/PI/ADH through the data flow.

Allow the BACnet Adapter to handle responses with an LVT that does not match the request

Currently the BACnet Adapter expects devices to respond with the same "Length Value, and Type" (LVT) value as the request. When this occurs the BACnet Adapter cannot parse the data in the response. For example: Request from Adapter, LVT=1 Response...
