2. 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
Briefly mention why we chose to base a lot of development effort on ActiveX based interfaces.

3. Introduction, continued
PI Batch Database
Model and store batch data
Map batch data to PI Data Archive
Support ISA S88 and beyond
PI Module Database
Add structure to the PI Data Archive
“Display Time” data source resolution
This presentation will concentrate on the PI Batch Database. An understanding of the PI Batch Database does require mention of the PI Module Database. The PI Module Database is covered in detail in another presentation, so we will do a quick overview here.

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

5. Purpose All industries can benefit Complete hierarchical model
Add Structure to the PI Data Archive
Add organization through PI Point grouping
Complete hierarchical model

6. OSI Brewing
Review of PI Module Database
Use model of two Brew Kettles

8. PIModule 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

9. PIUnit A PIUnit is a specialized PIModule
A PIModule set to be a PIUnit can historize batch objects

10. PIUnit Reactor1 PIAliases PIProperties

11. PIModuleDB Summary Easier access to PI Data Archive
Model to fit users requirements
For example, production requirements vs. maintenance requirements
Model supports changes through time
Module definable attributes
PIProperties collection

12. PI Batch Database Model and store batch data
Map batch data to PI Data Archive
Support ISA S88 and beyond

13. PI Batch Database Design based on previous experience
ISA S88: 1. The material that is being produced or that has been produced by a single execution of a batch process. 2. An Entity that represents the production of a materiel at any point in the process.
Requires two unique data objects
PIBatch
PIUnitBatch

15. PIBatch Encapsulates first definition: “the product being produced”
“Batch” of beer
Has a start and end time; but not all times significant
Associated data may be difficult to store in PI Data Archive

16. PIBatch Properties Batch ID Product Recipe Unique ID PIUnitBatches
PIProperties
Start Time
End Time

17. PIBatch Properties Product PIUnitBatches PIProperties
String or reference to the PIProducts collection in the PI Module Database
PIUnitBatches
Collection of PIUnitBatch objects; references to physical batch processing
PIProperties
Name-Value pairs; used to store application/user specific data
A few of the properties deserve more explanation.

18. PIUnitBatch
Encapsulates 2nd definition: “production of material at any point in the process”
Definite time of activity
Associated data stored in the PI Data Archive
Created via interface on a PIModule set to be a PIUnit

19. PIUnitBatch Properties
Batch ID
Product
Procedure Name
PIUnit
Unique ID
PIBatch
PISubBatches
Start Time
End Time

20. Creating a PIUnitBatch
A PIModule, with its IsPIUnit property set to TRUE supports following method: Function AddPIUnitBatch(bstrBatchID As String, varProduct, pStartTime As PITime, [pEndTime As PITime]) As PIUnitBatch
Demonstrate creating a PIUnitBatch

21. PISubBatch Encapsulates identifiable portions of a PIUnitBatch
Operations, phases, steps…
Sub-batch hierarchy is preserved
Sub-batch definitions are site configurable
Not restricted to Operation,phase and step of S88

22. PISubBatch Properties
Name
Sub-batch definition
Recipe
Unique ID
PIUnitBatch
PIProperties
Start Time
End Time

23. PISubBatchDefinitions
Defines available sub-batch definitions or types.
For example, Operation, Phase
Defines hierarchy of sub-batches
For example, A phase must be part of an operation
Does not define specific instance of a sub-batch

24. Creating Sub-batches Always part of a PIUnitBatch
PISubBatches property of PIUnitBatch Function Add(Name As String, pDef As PISubBatchDefinition, pStartTime As PITime, [pEndTime As PITime]) As PISubBatch
Demonstrate creating sub-batches

25. PITransferRecord
Material tracking
Genealogy

26. PITransferRecord Properties
Source (PIBatch or PIUnitBatch)
Destination(PIBatch or PIUnitBatch)
Start Time
End Time
Quantity
Engineering Units
Unique ID

27. Creating Transfer Records
Method of the PITransferRecordDb
Function Add(pSource As Unknown, pDestination As Unknown, pStartTime As PITime, [pEndTime As PITime], [Quantity], [EngineeringUnits]) As PITransferRecord
