Native CANopen support

Add dedicated CANopen channels to simplify implementation of CANopen communication. Also, support for EDS files would be nice.

String functions

Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Lars Bolduc 2 years ago 6

There are a few different forum questions and feature requests that I think would be possible to solve if we had added some string handling functions, for example comparison of text channel values: 

http://forum.iqan.se/topics/1006-any-way-to-store-serial-number/

http://forum.iqan.se/topics/403-convert-machine-id-to-numbers/

,string concatenation:

http://forum.iqan.se/topics/162-idea-ability-to-change-tp-channel-value-using-qcode/

and conversion from integer to text

http://forum.iqan.se/topics/863-ascii-characters-from-j1939-parameter/

Anyone else who thinks this could be a good idea?

touch number pad for adjusting parameters with MD4

andyr 9 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 24

using MD4 to adjust function parameters within adjust menu, could a pop-up touch number pad be made available as an option to enter a new value rather than scrolling which can take a long time if the adjust range set is wide with a small increment step number

Ethernet/modbus communications protocols on MD4?

David Holcomb 9 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Andy 1 year ago 5

We frequently are integrating IQAN into larger systems that frequently have Ethernet/modbus in use.  Any hope of getting communication over the ethernet ports?

Free text comments in IQANdesign functionality view

It would be nice to have the possiblity to add a box for entering comments in the functionality view.
The Description field of the channels and objects work, but one must click on the individual channel to see it, or use the Project Documentation generation to see a more complete list of all descriptions.

Lamp feature for lables

Fredrik Forsberg 9 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Grisel, Evert-Jan 1 month ago 8

It would be nice to have lables with lamp function. Be able to define "Input channel", "ON color" and "OFF color" for lables.It would be easier than making two lables as we do now.

Custom re-usable Function Group

AxelC 9 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Jean-Marc Zanni 2 years ago 10 1 duplicate

Hi,



In our company we use many times the same code in one application, and in differents target (MD3 and MD4)
for example we receive can bus data from two similar targets, then we do the same transformations for both on the data. Or we do the exact same task on a MD4 and a MD3.
That mean that we have 2 times the same code. We made a function group that we can copy but if we update one we have to update the other. And it is not that easy if the code is complicate.



It would be great to be able to make a kind on "User Function Group Lib", where we can define a function group with inputs and outputs that can be used in the application. Editing the function group in the lib would then update it every where.



Then the ability to export/import this lib to an other project would allow to be sure to have the same code on two different project.



I know that it is a big job but it would be such a great improvement.

Sub-Groups in Adjust Groups

Barth Hollanddrain 9 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 12 months ago 9

Is it any way possible, or be made possible to create subgroups in the adjust-groups?
The applications we create use a lot of costumer-dependent values.

We use the MD4/5 screens on our machines, also to adjust values/parameters in the program.
Calibrating our systems takes a lot of time now, simply because of scrolling and searching for the right parameter.

Having sub-groups would speed things up.
Also having those subgroups optionaly password-protected would be a good addition.
