UniInt-based

UniInt, which stands for Universal Interface, is not a separate product or file but rather is an OSIsoft-developed template used by developers and integrated into many interfaces, including this interface data simulator. The purpose of UniInt is to keep a consistent feature set and behavior across as many of OSIsoft's interfaces as possible. It also allows for the very rapid development of new interfaces. In any UniInt-based interface, the interface uses some of the UniInt-supplied configuration parameters and some interface-specific parameters. UniInt is constantly being upgraded with new options and features.
SetDeviceStatus

PI Interface for Ramp Soak Simulator Data supports UniInt interface health tags. In particular, for a health tag with an Extended Descriptor attribute containing [UI_DEVSTAT], the interface writes the following values:
- a) "1 | Starting" - the interface is starting up
- b) "0 | Good" - the interface has successfully connected simulating data
- d) "4 | Intf Shutdown" - the interface has shut down
  
  Refer to the UniInt user guide for more information on how to configure health tags.

Note: Vendor software is required. PI Server may run on the same system as the interface, or it may run on another system.
