- AdminUI MTConnect driver form: "Comms-loss confirm (ms)" in the Reconnect section, always written
(0 = first refusal, negative = off is never dropped), case-insensitive load, unknown keys preserved,
advisory at >= 90000 ms (the watchdog fires first). Form output byte-pinned and parsed through
MTConnectDriver.ParseOptions on the driver side.
- Driver: a confirmed refused-connection outage now annotates every told CONDITION quality-only
BadNoCommunication (state/ack kept, once per outage, UNAVAILABLE-Bad skipped); the first delivery
afterwards re-diffs all subscribed conditions so unchanged ones get a quality-only Good.
- docker-dev/docker-compose.mtconnect-gate.yml: throwaway Agent in its adapter's network namespace so a
stop is a genuine ConnectionRefused (a plain stopped container is a DNS failure = ambiguous).
- Docs: MTConnect.md comms-loss section + live-gate recipe, docker-dev README, drivers.md rule.
