To specify how the connector processes incoming data, you create a configuration INI file.
The configuration file is composed of sections that define how the incoming data is split into fields, then processed, and then written to PI tags, PI AF elements, or event frames.
Concrete examples can be found on GitHub - PI Connector for UFL Samples. You will find a set of INI files accompanied with sample data input there. The INI logic as well as the scripts and data input can be downloaded and modified accordingly.
The following topics explain configuration files in detail. Refer to the referenced GitHub address, or see the commented examples in Review configuration examples for more input on the individual functions and features.
