P2_RGB Explorer Icon

P2 Explorer version 4.9 is a minor release that redefines the Trending Tool technology and adds frequently requested enhancements to the trend. This release also improves the performance of the Data Table and supports further enhancements to Shift Log. 

Explorer 4.9.3 adds minor enhancements and addresses some reported issues found in previous releases.

 

Exaquantum Adaptor

The Exaquantum Adaptor is now available in P2 Explorer. This is available in P2 Server Management as a Tag Datasource type. The following adaptor parameters are specific to this adaptor:

  • Use Multi-Access: Determines whether the Multi Access Reader Class will be used for accessing the historian.
  • Tag Fetch Prefix: By default, tag discovery will be run to search a folder named "Root". Setting this option allows tag discovery to be run against a different, named Exaquantum folder.
  • Import Aggregation Tags: Determines whether tags under the "Aggregations" folder will be return during tag discovery.

 


Assign Calculation Tags to Attribute Values

In P2 Server Management, it is now possible to assign a calculation tag directly to an attribute value. This drastically reduces the amount of time it takes to configure a large number of entities.

Any entity with this template will have the attribute value automatically assigned to that calculation tag.

In Explorer, these attribute values are then available for entities with this template, wherever you can use an entity, such as on trends and in the hierarchy.

 


Create SQL Tags on a Narrow Relational Datasource

In P2 Server Management, it is now possible to create tags for a Relational Datasource. There are two conditions:

  • This will only work for Narrow relational datasources
  • There must be at least one tag on the datasource already (this is so that the SQL tag can copy the native name and type).

In this release, creating these tags can only be done in P2 Server Management, however users can write back to the tags from P2 Explorer. In a future release, users will have the ability to create these tags from P2 Explorer.

 


OI Sync Additional Merrick Properties

The following Merrick properties have been added to the Meter template, and are now included in the OI sync:

  • Oil Production Est Vol Daily
  • Gas Temperature Daily
  • Odometer Open Daily
  • Odometer Close Daily
  • Oil Production Act Vol Monthly

 


Case Management Enhancements

Case Management Form Filter

In Case Management, an additional filter has been added to the filter bar, which allows users to choose a form by which to filter the list of entries being displayed in the table. This drop-down will list all forms of type ‘Case’ and ‘General’.

Consolidation of Events, Cases, and Forms

In previous versions of Case Management, Sentinel cases and Explorer cases were distinct types of cases. In the latest version, there is no distinction between Sentinel cases and Explorer cases, these are both now considered ‘General’ cases.

Cases that were created as a result of a Sentinel event will now display details of the event from within Case Management, when the entry is opened.

In the entry itself, clicking the ‘Case’ icon on the left will show you the additional properties of the case that was created for the event.

Hierarchy Tree in Entity Picker

In the Entity picker on an entry dialog, you now have the option to browse the entities from a selected hierarchy.
