Troubleshoot and Accept Scout
Start with the first incomplete step in the current task. Refresh the task once, inspect the latest operation and record the visible reason, time and request reference before retrying a write.
Diagnose by Symptom
| Symptom | Next action | Owner |
|---|---|---|
| Scout is missing or access is denied | Check tenant, DFS Pro and Scout activation, then action permissions | Administrator |
| Business goals are unavailable | Use exploration for discovery, or publish the required business requirements | Application owner |
| Expected equipment is missing | Reconcile the existing MDM or asset identity and review queue | Data steward |
| Semantic models are unavailable | Create or import the intended model in model management | Model owner |
| A model has no linked points or equipment | Associate its nodes with existing equipment and attributes | Model owner |
| Matching candidates are absent | Check discovery completion, source selection, scope and result pages | Data operator |
| Unit, axis, temperature or battery meaning is unclear | Obtain a field dictionary and installation evidence | Domain specialist |
| Compatible Point classes are absent | Check the property unit, selected catalog and complete result list | Model administrator |
| AI analysis is unavailable | Test the configured model route with an actual Scout analysis | Model-service owner |
| Approval action is unavailable | Complete required evidence and verify independent release roles | Reviewer or administrator |
| Model or binding version changed | Refresh the task and validate a plan for the current version | Operator |
| CSV preview is ready without imported values | Assign the governed import to the data-integration owner | Data-integration owner |
| MQTT is connected without fields | Check topic, publisher, payload format and parser support | Source owner |
| Publication succeeded without readings | Check source access, observation time and ingestion path | Data operations |
| Readings exist without a business result | Check application inputs, processing and output | Application owner |
Treat missing data, currently unavailable data and a valid measured zero as separate states. Record the source, observation time and unit whenever a real value is available.
Recover a Timed-Out or Partial Operation
- Refresh the task and open the existing operation or release.
- Inspect completed, failed and pending stages.
- Preserve the request or release reference for support and audit.
- Use the recovery action presented for that workflow.
- Verify the resulting active version and downstream state.
For an API retry, reuse the original idempotency key only when the endpoint documents that retry behavior. Semantic-model recovery can restore a supported model or reference version; raw-data recovery follows the data workflow's own controls.
Customer Acceptance Checklist
- The intended tenant and delivered frontend/backend versions are in use.
- Viewer, operator, reviewer, approver and release-operator roles work as assigned.
- Authorized customer sources and real equipment identities are confirmed.
- Scope, units, physical meaning and time boundaries are agreed.
- The approved model service returns a usable Scout analysis when AI analysis is in scope.
- Decisions, validation, approval and release results are recorded.
- The workflow produces its expected dataset version, model references, observations or application result.
- Source freshness and historical coverage are reported separately.
- Remaining items have owners, required evidence and target follow-up times.
- Recovery limits and temporary-data cleanup responsibilities are documented.
Prepare a Support Request
Include the task name, tenant context through the approved support channel, page and action, time, visible error or request reference, affected scope, product version and last successful step. Follow the customer's support policy for records and attachments. Keep passwords, API secrets and model credentials in the approved secret-management system.
