Console Tab (System Logs)
The Console tab is where you check the health of your project, from code compilation to uploading to the board.
Notification Types
The system categorizes notifications by color and icon for easy identification:
- Debug (Gray): Detailed technical info, usually for debugging the IDE.
- Info (Teal): General info, e.g., "Sketch compiled successfully".
- Warning (Orange): Warnings (e.g., unused variables, memory almost full). Code still runs but needs attention.
- Error (Red): Critical errors (e.g., missing semicolon, library not found). Compilation will stop.
- Success (Green): Success message (e.g., "Upload complete").
Filter Feature
When logs are too long, you can use the filter to find information quickly:
- Click the Filter (Funnel) icon.
- Enter keywords in the search box (e.g., "error").
- Or select the desired Log Level (only show Error, or Warning...).
Debugging Compile Errors
When encountering an Error (Red):
- The Console will clearly show the filename and line number causing errors (e.g.,
main.ino:42:10). - Click that file link to let the IDE automatically jump to the error line.
- Combine with AI Assistant (Debug mode) to ask AI to explain and fix the error.
