SmartSignal xConnector gives you the equipment-performance intelligence you need in the PI tools you know and trust.

Many of you use OSIsoft PI—the world’s leading operational and real-time data-management infrastructure. With PI, you gather and archive large volumes of data, access them, and view them via easy-to-use graphical tools. PI is a proven tool, and the foundation for establishing your culture on continuous improvement.

Now you need to analyze the PI data and predict impending equipment problems from it. This is a challenge as there's no way your resources—or any resources—have the time to evaluate thousands of PI data points, to draw proper conclusions from them, and to take appropriate actions. You need a way to effectively and efficiently analyze the past...and to move forward to predict the future...

That’s why OSIsoft and SmartSignal are partners.

SmartSignal works on top of PI to provide the earliest and most precise equipment-failure detection. We analyze, in real time, your mountains of PI sensor data to detect early signs of equipment problems. We identify the “needles in the haystack” in the PI data—the impending problems—and notify you of these issues only.

We provide this intelligence through our patented technology , which allows our customers to detect minor failures, major failures, and even catastrophic failures before they happen, in time to eliminate expensive maintenance expenses, fuel expenses, and revenue loss.   
  
SmartSignal xConnector lets you leverage the benefits of SmartSignal directly in your PI tools.

With xConnector, SmartSignal’s modeling estimates and incidents are added to your OSIsoft PI screens, where you can graphically see how your equipment should be behaving and what issues require your attention. With xConnector, you get all the benefits of SmartSignal PLUS all the benefits of OSIsoft’s data visualization technology and powerful trending functions.
