Use client tools to visualize event frames

You can use PI Datalink, AVEVA PI Vision, and PI WebParts client tools to visualize event frames. You can also use PI OLEDB Enterprise, PI JDBC Driver, or PI Web Services to integrate event frame data into other third-party reporting tools.

Note: PI BatchView, and PI Manual Logger do not currently support event frame visualization.

• PI Datalink

  PI Datalink support for event frames includes exploring and comparing hierarchical events. For more information, see Events in worksheets.

• AVEVA PI Vision

  AVEVA PI Vision enables you to view and analyze your PI System data during the time range of a particular event. For example, you may want to examine the performance of an asset during an operator shift or compare the data for several assets during a downtime period.

  AVEVA PI Vision supports event frames through the "Related Events" viewer. For more information, see Analyzing and comparing events.

• PI WebParts

  PI WebParts does not include specific features related to event frame visualization. However, you can create a data set based on a relational data source that retrieves event frame data via PI OLEDB Enterprise. This event frame data can then be displayed in a PI Table web part, for example, and used to provide context, such as start and end times, to other web parts on the page.
