LDE supports a variety of development and debugging capabilities, including:

  • Importing .mpk (Model Package Kit) files

  • Loading deployed applications from the devkit

  • Running and monitoring the applications

  • Editing local text files directly

  • Viewing system and application logs

  • Adjusting GStreamer (GST) launch debug levels to troubleshoot and understand runtime issues

LDE is compatible with both:

  • GST-based applications

  • PePPi applications

These capabilities make LDE a powerful tool for rapid testing, debugging, and iteration during application development on OptiView platforms.

Once the application starts, the log viewer is automatically displayed. The AppLogs tab shows the most relevant trace logs, while the Computer Vision Unit (EV74) and Syslog tabs provide additional system-level information to help developers understand the system dynamics during application runtime.
