Yes, I am looking forward to this update 🙂 I really want to stop moving symbolically addressed tags into non-optimized DB's .... Spoiled from AB.... ---

Any chance this new driver could be available in the future for the 8.1 branch too ? ---

I don't know, I wouldn't count on it. At this point I can't even say the driver is a sure thing. We haven't managed to come to an agreement over licensing and actually buy the damn library yet. ---

Hi @Kevin.Herron, Any update on that subject ? Thanks ---

Licensing is taken care of, this new driver should be part of Ignition 8.3. ---

Are you also planning redundant plc support ? I see the library does support it. If not, please consider this as a feature request for both redundant 400 and 1500 cpu's ---

Thanks for the immediate response. I had my fingers crossed for a pre xmas release. ☹ I do have another suggestion(/issue) for your product. The Piping tool: There is a problem with the DOM. Tag binding to the pipes is attached to the index of the array. That means if a pipe is deleted in the middle of the array, then the binding attach to different pipes! "root": { ……. "props": { "pipes": [ { "appearance": "auto", "end": "none", "fill": "", "flanges": true, "lineVariant": "solid", "name": "pipe\_0", "origin": { "connections": [ { "x": 160, "y": 218 } ], "x": 311, "y": 218 }, "start": "none", "visible": true, "width": 3 }, { …….. } "propConfig": { "props.pipes[0].stroke": { ß This attaches to the pipe via the ARRAY INDEX!!!! (If a pipe is deleted, then this is not updated. It break’s ALL pipes higher in the array index!) "binding": { "config": { "expression": "{[edge]SVs/SV 061/SV\_Open} || {[edge]SVs/SV 063/SV\_Open}" }, "transforms": [ { "fallback": "#000000", "inputType": "scalar", "mappings": [ { "input": false, "output": "#808080" }, { "input": true, "output": "#0000FF" } ], "outputType": "color", "type": "map" } ], "type": "expr" } }, The binding should really be pipe object. ---

The underlying library is ACCON AGLink by Delta Logic > [@David\_Stone](#): > > Probably a SoftIng company. Who was bought by Softing right before the release. 🙃 [Previous page](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/siemens-symbolic-addressing/82329.md?page=1)
