Hi Alan,

I thought about that but if possible, I would like to ignore the failed
operation messages only under a controlled and expected situation. 
I think that if there is a problem with the device it will be easier to
analyze it later with all the possible information.
But this is my opinion ...

Thank you

Best regards
