PI Interface for Bailey Infi90 11Chapter 3. Installation Checklist If you are familiar with running PI data collection interface programs, this checklist helps you get the interface running. If you are not
familiar with PI interfaces, return to this section after reading the rest of the manual in detail. This checklist summarizes the steps for installing this interface. You need not perform a given task if you have already done so as part of the installation of another interface. For example, you only have to configure one instance of Buffering for every interface node regardless of how many interfaces run on that node. The
Data Collection Steps below are required. Interface Diagnostics and Advanced Interface Features are optional.
Data Collection Steps 1. Confirm that you can use PI SMT to configure the PI Server.
You need not run PI SMT on the same computer on which you run this interface.
2. If you are running the
interface on an interface node, edit the PI Server’s Trust Table to allow the interface to write data.
3. Run the installation kit for the PI Interface Configuration Utility (ICU) on the interface node if the ICU will be used to configure the interface.
This kit runs the PI SDK installation kit, which installs both the PI API and the PI SDK.
4. Run the installation kit for this interface. This kit also runs the PI SDK installation kit which installs both the PI API and the PI SDK if necessary.
5. If you are running the interface on an interface node, check the computer’s timezone properties. An improper timezone configuration can cause the PI Server to reject the data that this interface writes.
6. Run the ICU and configure anew instance of this interface. Essential startup parameters for this interface are
