Every 0x0026 position block is self-describing: [i32 raw][u16 base][u16 exponent],
value = raw / base^exponent. The live 31i-B capture (ref-dynamic2-axis1.bin)
reports base 10 / exponent 4 on every block, so axis 1 is 280.1574 mm, not
2801574. The driver ignored the envelope and instead sent 'cnc_getfigure'
(0x00D3) -- a command that does not exist in the FOCAS wire protocol, served only
by the in-tree mock; the real control refuses it with rc=1, so on hardware every
position fell back to PositionDecimalPlaces (default 0) and published raw counts.
- ParsePositionBlock decodes the envelope into FocasPosition; the driver applies
raw / base^exponent at publish. PositionDecimalPlaces is now only the fallback
for a scale-less (4-byte) block.
- A block describing no position (0xFFFF vacant marker, base not 2/10, exponent
> 18 -- raw / 10^400 would read as a Good 0.0) publishes BadNoData on that node
alone; siblings are untouched.
- ReadPositionFiguresAsync / IFocasClient.GetPositionFiguresAsync and the
per-axis figure cache are deleted.
Ported from the sister ignitionoee FOCAS driver v0.17.0 (+ Focas.Wire-014);
live axis-scoped captures live-dynamic2-axis{1,2}-0x0026.bin (Z-34184 X 0.0374,
Y 370.177) added as fixtures.
#556 item 1 — leading whitespace defeated every Inspect's pre-filter. Seven
factories (Modbus/S7/AbCip/AbLegacy/TwinCAT/FOCAS/Mqtt) tested
`reference[0] != '{'`, so a padded blob returned EMPTY and a tag the driver
refuses deployed clean. The check now trims first, matching the idiom
Sql/Calculation/MTConnect/OpcUaClient already used. The raw reference is still
what is handed to the mapper — the driver reads the stored blob, not a trimmed
copy — so the gate keeps mirroring the runtime rather than becoming lenient.
Both directions are pinned: a padded blob the mapper accepts still draws
nothing, and one that is not object-framed AFTER trimming still draws nothing
(it is not an equipment-tag TagConfig at all).
Six of the seven mappers hand the blob to a whitespace-tolerant
JsonDocument.Parse, so their verdict is unchanged by padding. MQTT is the
exception: both its readers carry the same framing gate, so a padded blob is
genuinely refused — which is why the untrimmed pre-filter was a real defect
there and not a cosmetic mismatch.
#556 item 2 — FOCAS and MQTT appended advisories unconditionally and then gated
the catch-all rejection message on `warnings.Count == 0`, so an advisory (which
fires on ACCEPTED blobs too, and says nothing about a refusal) silently
swallowed the only message naming a refusal nothing else can. The two classes
now accumulate in SEPARATE lists and the backstop gates on the rejection count
alone — structural, not string matching. MQTT's swallow was reachable in
production (a padded blob its readers refuse while every describe branch finds
the parsed document well-formed); FOCAS's backstop is currently unreachable by
audit, so its guard is protective.
#557 item 2 — decided and pinned: KEEP the union verdict. Evidence:
FromSparkplugTagConfig hard-codes PayloadFormat=Json and never consults the key;
only MqttSubscriptionManager (the Plain ingest path) decodes by it; and
MqttTagConfigModel.ToJson deliberately omits the key entirely in Sparkplug mode
(#513). So a Sparkplug driver genuinely serves the tag and rejecting it would be
stricter than the runtime. The cost — served behaviour depends on the driver's
MqttMode, which no tag row records — is paid by an ADVISORY naming the key and
the mode dependency, not by changing the verdict, so both gates keep agreeing.
The same invalid value on a blob the union REFUSES stays a rejection; the class
is decided by the accept gate, never by the key.
Falsified: reverting Modbus's trim reddens the padded-rejection theory;
neutering MQTT's backstop guard to the pre-#556 shape reddens the
advisory-plus-unnameable-rejection test; disabling the #557 advisory reddens the
contract pin; and for FOCAS, removing a describe branch alone stays green (the
backstop covers it) while additionally neutering the guard goes red.
Gitea #551.
1. CSV import ran no driver-typed config gate. Its typed columns were always
strictly parsed, but the free-form TagConfigJson column reached the database
unread, so a CSV could author a tag the driver rejects — one that deploys
green and reads BadNodeIdUnknown forever. RawTagCsvMapper.Parse now names the
offending row in the staged review grid, and RawTreeService enforces the same
gate on CreateTag/UpdateTag/ImportTags: a form cannot be the guarantee (the
API and any future caller reach none of them, and this repo has no bUnit).
A rejected import row is an ERROR — the batch inserts nothing and the row is
named — never a skip.
Note the brief's premise that manual entry rides ImportTagsAsync is wrong:
RawManualTagEntryModal commits row-by-row via CreateTagAsync, which is why
the gate had to land on all three write paths.
2/3. The seven pre-#549 Inspect methods ran a hand-list of DescribeInvalidEnum
checks, so every rejection cause not on the list was invisible. They are now
ACCEPT-GATE-FIRST (the MTConnect/Sql/OpcUaClient/Calculation shape): ask the
driver's own reader for the verdict, then explain the refusal, with a
catch-all so "the parse rejects but Inspect said nothing" is unreachable.
That closes S7's absent dataType, AbCip members[], Modbus stringByteOrder and
the type-dependent guards, plus causes the issue did not name (absent
region/address/tagPath/symbolPath/topic, TwinCAT Structure, MQTT's Sparkplug
tuple). FOCAS and MQTT keep advisories about ACCEPTED blobs, so they
diagnose rather than return empty.
Authoring half: ModbusTagConfigModel gains stringByteOrder;
AbCipTagConfigModel asks the new AbCipTagDefinitionFactory.DescribeInvalidMember;
S7TagConfigModel captures whether the SOURCE blob declared dataType and asks
S7TagDefinitionFactory.DataTypeKey/DeclaresDataType. One authority per rule.
4. Doc sweep: the six factory Inspect summaries, EquipmentTagConfigInspector's
class remarks and AdminOperationsActor's comment all claimed invalid enums are
"silently defaulted by the lenient runtime" — false since R2-11 Phase C made
the runtime reads strict. They describe rejections now.
Authoring FOCAS tags through /raw -> Browse device... produced tags the driver
could never read. Every committed tag read BadNodeIdUnknown forever, and the
failure was silent end to end: the AdminUI accepted it, the deploy gate sealed
green, and the driver reported Healthy with 0 errors while ignoring the tags.
Net effect: the whole fixed-tree surface could not be published through any v3
authoring path. Found cutting wonder-app-vd03 over to v3 against a real Makino
Pro 5 / Fanuc 30i, where 0 of 20 committed tags read while two hand-authored
MACRO: tags on the same device read Good.
A captured browse leaf's id IS its DriverAttributeInfo.FullName, and the fixed
tree emitted "{deviceHost}/{path}" there -- an internal cache key, not an
address. Both authoring paths wrote it verbatim into TagConfig.address, and
FocasAddress.TryParse accepts no such form, so the driver skipped the tags at
init.
Fixed at the emitter rather than by stripping the host at commit, which fixes
the browse-commit flow and the manual picker's tree-select together and leaves
one canonical address form:
- FocasAddress gains a fourth kind, FIXED:<path>, and moves to Contracts so the
AdminUI and ControlPlane can parse without referencing the runtime driver
(#526). A FIXED: read is served from the fixed-tree snapshot the poll loop
already maintains -- no area read, no connection. Writes refuse: nothing in
that tree is a writable location on the CNC.
- The address carries no device. A tag's device comes from its Device row, and
a second routing channel for one fact is what created this defect.
- An authored FIXED: tag arms the fixed-tree poll loop by itself. Enabled
defaults false and the browser force-enables it only for a browse, so the
operator would otherwise browse, commit, deploy, and land on a driver whose
loop never starts -- every tag Bad with a correct address.
- Fixed-tree values are now dated from the last answered poll and go
BadCommunicationError once it is stale (8 cadences, floored at 30s). The poll
loop swallows a failed tick by design, so a dead CNC would otherwise serve its
last snapshot as Good indefinitely -- harmless while nothing could bind to the
tree, not harmless now.
Guardrails, so this class cannot recur silently:
- FocasTagConfigModel.Validate() runs the real parser instead of a non-empty
check, and FocasTagDefinitionFactory.Inspect() warns at the deploy gate, which
covers CSV/API config that never touches the modal.
- The manual picker offered axis/spindle/program/status "parameter groups" --
none of which is a FOCAS addressing space -- and its own default value,
axis:5, was unusable. It now composes PMC / PARAM: / MACRO: through
FocasAddress, so what it emits is parseable by construction.
Tests assert addresses ROUND-TRIP through the parser rather than matching an
expected string: the previous FocasAddressBuilderTests pinned "axis:5" exactly,
which is how a green suite coexisted with a picker nobody could use. Verified
red-first against the old emitter. FOCAS 308, AdminUI 1095, ControlPlane 169,
Core 581 -- all pass, 0 warnings.
The remaining half of #540 -- a driver reporting Healthy/0 errors while
skipping tags at init -- is fleet-wide (eight drivers do this) and is filed
separately rather than patched per-driver.
R2-11 Phase C. All six equipment-tag parsers (Modbus/S7/AbCip/AbLegacy/
TwinCAT/Focas) now read enum fields via the new TagConfigJson.TryReadEnumStrict:
absent -> fallback, valid -> parsed, present-but-invalid (typo) -> TryParse
returns false -> EquipmentTagRefResolver.TryResolve false -> driver surfaces
BadNodeIdUnknown, instead of the old lenient path that silently defaulted a
typo to a wrong-width Good.
Modbus flips all three enum fields (region/dataType/byteOrder); the other five
flip dataType. The deploy-time Deployment:TagConfigValidationMode=Error gate is
unchanged and remains the operator pre-flight.
Coverage:
- Six *EquipmentTagParserStrictnessTests inverted from Freeze_typo_* (lenient)
to Typo_*_rejects_the_tag + Valid_*_still_parses.
- TagConfigJsonTests.TryReadEnumStrict_rejects_only_invalid matrix.
- Driver-level end-to-end proof:
AbCipEquipmentTagTests.Driver_read_of_a_typod_dataType_ref_surfaces_BadNodeIdUnknown
drives the real AbCipDriver.ReadAsync through resolve->status.
Golden parity corpus has no typo'd enums, so the flip is a no-op there.
Full solution builds clean; all six driver suites + core + parity + gate green.
Adds <summary>/<param>/<returns>/<inheritdoc> where missing and removes
project bookkeeping IDs (task/tracking refs) from shipped code comments,
so the docs read cleanly and CommentChecker is quiet except for known
false positives (PLC/protocol terms, event/IEqualityComparer inheritdoc).
Doc/comment-only; no logic changed; solution builds clean.
Move FocasDriverOptions (and companion option types), FocasCncSeries,
and the FocasDataType enum to a new Driver.FOCAS.Contracts sibling
project. FocasDataTypeExtensions (which uses DriverDataType from
Core.Abstractions) stays in the runtime driver as FocasDataTypeExtensions.cs.
Convert two doc-comment references:
<see cref="FocasDriver.InitializeAsync"/> → <c>FocasDriver.InitializeAsync</c>
<see cref="FocasAddress.TryParse"/> → <c>FocasAddress.TryParse</c>
per the approved decision — no compilable usings were present in the
moved files.
The runtime Driver.FOCAS project gains a ProjectReference to .Contracts;
the .slnx is updated accordingly.
