PI VISION OPC interface V 13.3.1

We are working on planning the migration to PI VISION from PI Process book and are thinking we want to run them in parallel from the APP station.  I have enough OPC tag licensing, but I can't find the details related to drivers, etc needed or if we simply just add another PI interface in the configuration utility.  The PI VISION manual is specific to that side, not the DeltaV side and guardian had no hits in the knowledge base for "VISION".  Anyone done this yet?  Thanks...JWB

  • Hello.

    We are operating PI Process Book and PI-Vision in parallel with DeltaV since 2021.

    BUT we have an external PI-System-Installation:
    - 1x PI-DATABASE-SERVER
    - 1x PI-VISION-SERVER
    - 1x PI-AF-SERVER

    The interface between our DeltaV System and the PI-DATABASE-SERVER is OPC-DA. The PI-Vision application gets the data from the PI-DATABASE-SERVER. So, the number of the needed OPC-DST-Licences is not increasing. From an OSI/AVEVA point of view it´s necessary to have the correct licence for the PI-Vision application but doubling the DST-tags is not needed.
