Free PI Vision custom symbols

Two working symbols for AVEVA PI Vision, open source, no licence and no sign-up. They are also the quickest way to prove a custom symbol installs cleanly on your own server before you commit to anything.

Combo Chart
Free Edition

Try PIForge for free. Overlay trend lines and bar series on a single PI Vision display — no license, no sign-up required.

Combo Chart — Free
Trend 1 Trend 2 Trend 3 Bar 0 50 100

AlarmIQ
Free Edition

PI Vision has trends, gauges and tables — but no alarm list. This adds one. Drop tags, give each a limit, and see what is in alarm right now, worst first.

AlarmIQ — Free
Active Alarms 2
Severity Asset Attribute Value Limit
Critical Reactor R-101 Temperature 96.4 > 80
Major Pump P-201 Vibration 7.1 > 4
Normal Pump P-201 Bearing Temp 62.0 > 90

Installing either of these

Extract the four files into %PIHOME64%\PIVision\Scripts\app\editor\symbols\ext\ on the PI Vision server, unblock them, and recycle the PI Vision application pool.

Two things fail silently and account for most unsuccessful installs: copying to %PIHOME% instead of %PIHOME64% — different trees on a PI server, and PI Vision is only in the 64-bit one — and Windows silently blocking files that came from the internet. Neither produces an error message.
