AVEVA PI System plug-in

Following are some points to consider for using AVEVA PI System:

• The AVEVA PI System Plug-In requires the installation of the AVEVA PI System feature.

• During the AVEVA Mobile Operator installation, you can select and install the AVEVA PI System. The PI System installation does not require a license.

• The Service Account running the PI System Plug-In must have the read/write permissions to the PI Points/Tags.

• Check if the PI Web API is configured to work with the PI Buffer. If yes, then ensure that the PI Buffer ID also has the read/write permissions. To know about the PI Buffer, see the AVEVA PI documentation.

• In the PI System Explorer, you must set the value of 'AuthenticationMethod' as 'Kerberos'.

• You can update the MobileOperator.PISystem.Update.Service.exe.config file to disable the Certificate Revocation List. To update the MobileOperator.PISystem.Update.Service.exe.config file, do the following:

  <appSettings>

  <add key="CheckCertificateRevocationList" value="false" />

  </appSettings>

  Note: By default, the Certification Revocation List is set to true.
