Thanks Alex. I'll take a close look at the doco. And apologises for the mess our SPAM filter made to the subject. I should have cleaned it up.

The restriction to configured tags applies only to historical data.

I would like to be able to improve a visualization tool I have created by allowing one to do "live loop" to borrow a term from DBDoc, a wonderful 3rd party Baileys tool. I would like to be able to interrogate any parameter in the system live. Similar to the Star button in IACC. We use PI and PI provides a decent SDK for accessing historical data for hidden tags.

You should not need to purchase another package. For more information, see the AIM*Datalink manual B0193YJ - Chapter 7 - Access to Historical Data.
