Debugging notes

Use field-confirmed sensor commands without side effects first; any commands are processed as high-risk operations and confirmed twice.

Verify the configuration

  1. Use the plugin-specific debug panel with one confirmed test point or test message.
  2. Confirm that the returned value or received message matches the device point list.
  3. Perform writes or control operations only with an approved test point and the site safety procedure.

Troubleshooting

  • The debug panel shows no result: Check the required inputs and plugin parameters, then inspect the device or target log for a response or error.
  • Special method execution fails: Check method parameters and permissions; control, write or reset methods also need to confirm that the device is in a state that allows operation.
