PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 PI Event Frames We built on what was learned from PI AF Performance is much better than PI Batch 3000-5000 records in 1-2 seconds. Object Structures Flexibility (Elements and Attributes) Scalable Reporting Provides RtDuet with a location to record its events. 29
PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 PI AF PI AF SDK is relatively easy to use CHM Help file is extremely useful Performance is better than PI Module Database Filter and search functions Object Structures Designed for reuse and scalable Provides RtDuet with infrastructure. 30
PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 PI AF & PI Event Frames unlocks RtDuet potential Using PI AF allows n RtDuet triggers. Using PI AF allows n RtDuet reason tree levels. Using PI Event Frame templates allow n types of Event Record. Not for just Downtime. Production, Quality, Batch etc. New PI Event Frames features mean no need to make an event fit the structure. The structure can be modified to fit the event. 31
PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 PI AF & PI Event Frames Key Features Used PI AF is RtDuet s infrastructure and metadata store PI Event Frames is RtDuet s main repository PI Event Frame Searching Elements or Event Frames / Indexing PI Event Frame Templates Flexible Configuration Changes can be tracked and versioned Check-Out and Check-In Reusable code and easy to work in team environment. vcampus Sample Code 32
PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 Benefits of leveraging the PI System The PI System is a great neutralizer. The PI System is the foundation of RtDuet. Its removes any requirement for a single technology or vendor hardware. PI SDK Real time process data Late binding data (Lab, Manual Inputs, Batch Process) PI AF SDK ROI for Customers 33
PI Event Frames and RtDuet 2011 Always Room for improvement The method for detecting change in PI AF is polled not pushed. Have to refresh method on top database object. PI Point templates / Data Reference Templates are not intuitive. Need to look at faster ways of getting the attribute data out. Pushes SQL very Hard - Hard Disc Activity Application on different box. IIS Data and PI AF Security What version of IIS? (2 Hops) PI AF and PI Event Frames editing with multiple concurrent users. 34
