PI to PI Interface

UserInt1 (source point ID)

As an alternative to mapping PI point names, you can specify the unique PointID of the source point in this attribute of the target point. The advantage of this approach is that the mapping remains valid if the source point is renamed. Due to a limitation of the PI API, if the source point name is longer than 80 characters, you must use this approach to mapping.
