DataEntrySingle

Open

The Data Entry Single symbol is designed to enable users to input and update data into PI Tags seamlessly. This symbol supports a range of data types, including strings, numerical values, booleans, multistates, and datetimes. It serves as a powerful tool for interacting with and updating PI Tag values directly within the PI Vision interface.

Starting the Control

To start the control click on the “Assets” button in the upper left corner of the PI Vision display.

In the upper part select “weruDataEntrySingle” by clicking on it.

Afterwards the desired attribute from the asset tree could be added to the display via drag and drop. The control appears on the display and can be used.

Usage of the Control

This control is used to enter values for PI tags or attributes manually. For this purpose, the entered value can be sent to the PI system without further selection of the date by clicking on "Update". In this case the value is written to the SnapShot with the current timestamp. In addition, a timestamp can optionally be selected via the calendar icon. In this case the entered value is written directly into the archive at the selected time.

Removing the Control

Before removing the control it is necessary to switch into edit mode (Icon in the upper right corner). Thereafter it is possible to click on the control and press the delete key to remove the control.
