Troubleshooting and support entries
Start with the product troubleshooting page to confirm environment, version, service state, permissions, and logs; use downloads or contact when scope confirmation, resources, or further assistance are needed.
Start from the symptom. Check Status first, then isolate menu response, license state, export output, and script execution.
Troubleshoot installation, access, services, PLCs, federation, and licensing layer by layer. Confirm port 8080 first, then database, Redis, modules, and devices.
HQ Scan issues usually come from TIA environment, Openness permission, scan scope, rule filtering, or export fields. Check the environment first.
Check login, port, download, upload, and permissions layer by layer. Confirm the service is listening before checking browser session and shared-folder boundaries.
