PI Module Database Ken Coates, Jon Peterson OSI Software, Inc.

Introduction PI Server Databases Programmatic Interfaces ActiveX. OSI and ActiveX based interfaces. Tools for applications OSI Products. Controls, applications ISV and system integrators User’s applications

Introduction, continued PI Module Database Add structure to the PI Data Archive “Display Time” data source resolution PI Batch Database Model and store batch data Map batch data to PI Data Archive Support ISA S88 and beyond

Purpose Batch Industry Demands on equipment modeling Numerous, similar equipment entities Produce a wide range of products Moveable, configurable equipment

Purpose All industries can benefit Add Structure to the PI Data Archive Add organization through PI Point grouping Controllers Arrays. For example profile points Complete hierarchical model

OSI Brewing Demonstrate the Module Database Pre-beta PI 3.3 Top-down design approach Start with the big picture Drill down into the details

PIHeadings Used to implement consistent naming convention Does not enforce a particular hierarchy Does enforce order

PIModules PIModule is the fundamental equipment element Comprised of: Name PIHeading: Module's hierarchy PIAliases: Collection of Data sources PIProperties: User/Application specific configuration data PIModules: More equipment collections

PIAliases PIAlias maps a common name to a PI Point Used to associate data with modules or equipment All PIModules have a collection of PIAliases

PIProperties Set of Name-Value pairs Stored in a VARIANT; therefore can hold nearly anything User or application definable properties Non-time series data associated with module

Unit: Brew Kettle

Brew Kettle, Phil’s Stout Line Nearly identical to Brew Kettle on Mark’s Stout Line References different data sources Demonstration: Display time resolution of data sources

Historize Equipment Changes Just like Process Data Time stamp and Value Keep track of modifications New Instruments and New Units Changing Product Information Updated Specifications New Products / Raw Materials Database Driven Applications
