Exceptions
ExceptionDescription

A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.

This is a usage error, i.e. it will never occur (the exception will not be thrown) in a correctly written program. Your code should not catch this exception.

The OPC UA operation has failed. This operation exception in uniformly used to allow common handling of various kinds of errors. The System.Exception.InnerException always contains information about the actual error cause.

This is an operation error that depends on factors external to your program, and thus cannot be always avoided. Your code must handle it appropriately.

Remarks
Normally, the NodeId of the object instance as the ObjectId is passed to the Call Service. However, some Servers do not expose Condition instances in the AddressSpace. Therefore, all Servers shall also allow Clients to call the AddComments Method by specifying ConditionId as the ObjectId. The Method cannot be called with an ObjectId of the AcknowledgeableConditionType Node.
