A typical initial response could look like this:

From this point on, you can see both Python print() output, but also Python errors in the Docklight communication window:
12.12.2022 12:57:11.074 [mc] - code: compile, script id: maxTRACK N23 demo rev8<LF><CR>
code: execute, script id: maxTRACK N23 demo rev8<LF><CR>
Hello World from MovingCap!<CR><LF>
Here is what MovingCap reports after uploading and starting a script that contains an obvious Python error - the amount of spaces in line 22 is incorrect, rep. this line is not properly indented. See the Internet for "Python Indentation" and why this is important:
12.12.2022 12:58:57.769 [mc] - code: starting, script id: maxTRACK N23 demo rev8<LF><CR>
12.12.2022 12:58:57.869 [mc] - code: compile, script id: maxTRACK N23 demo rev8<LF><CR>
