Is there anyway to disable the ReadIdentityObjectRequest warnings that popup in the Gateway logs when a device connection is down? Every evening the PLC in question is powered down until morning and these warnings fill up the log with a new entry every 5 seconds. I know I can filter them out of the view but it would be nice to prevent them from going into the log altogether. Thanks in advance for any help.

If you change the logging level to `OFF` on the log levels page it will stay off until you restart the gateway.

Oh man, completely forgot about that screen. Sorry about that! Thanks for the quick reply.
