The **Operation** tab allows you to simulate the response that the device would send to the OpenGate platform when receiving an operation, by selecting a previously created operation.

The help opens a modal window that provides information on the data structure for input and output operation variables

Inside the function, you can create an input and output operation. Using the **delete** or **save** buttons, you can delete or save the emulation of that operation.
