Hello, 

Fairly new to the Iqan design... When I try to receive a Can Message (generic 29bit identifier) with ID 0x18FF01, the ID is said to be out of range??? But my ID is in the ID range?!

Thanks for the help in advance

Regards

Davey

I tried today to download a 5.x program into a brand new MC2 unit who have never been upgraded with a new firmware. (Actually, I used 5.03 version)

I always go no communication with the MC2 until I use a V4.x iQan design.

After the first firmware update from 4.07 iQanDesign, I was able to complete the task from the 5.03.

There is an issue with this version ?

Does anyone know if its possible to increase the size of the "pop-up" boxes used for conditional messages etc.

Is there a way to use the +/- feature (available through the Adjust option inside the Menu) in a display page created by me? I have a user friendly settings page, but it seems sloppy to use it with the Slider control.

How can I save the value of a previous state with the memorizing calculation? I can't seem to figure out what I need to use as my activating to just get the previous value.

Version 5.03 of IQANdesign, IQANsimulate, IQANrun and IQANscript are available on check for updates.

New features

Multimeter in IQANdesign
The free floating quick-measure "Multimeter" window from IQANrun is added in IQANdesign. 
It is possible to bring up the Multimeter window and drag channels to it while measuring, or while editing the application.

Use IQANdesign 5.03.12 for this feature

Graph measure in IQANrun multimeter
It is now possible to add a multimeter measure group to the IQANrun graph measure view by selecting the group or one of its items and clicking the graph
button in the multimeter toolbar. You can then use the same features as when measuring on a regular measure group, such as starting/stopping the measurement, zooming, saving etc.

GT module and telematics node in IQANdesign
A new type of gateway module is added, GT - Gateway Telematics. This represents a generic Parker IQAN Connect gateway supporting IQAN remote diagnostics via IQANconnect and 
telematics; signal collection from the application sent to a server. 

More information on the gateway hardware and the telematics service will follow in the next couple of months. 

Important bug fixed

XC21, XC22 and XC23 inputs frozen after cranking -fixed.
This problem existed in versions 4.07 - 5.02. The master module could freeze all input values of an XC2x if the module had a short dip in power supply,  <9V for tens of ms. The dip had to be short enough to restarte the XC2x whbefore it had timed out in the application. 
Applications with longer cycle times e.g. 50ms were more likely to be affected. 

For more details on 5.03 updates, see release notes

Have you used any bluetooth transmitter / receiver with Iqan? I want to send sensor signal 0-5V to MD4 with bluetooth.

Has anyone had any experience connecting a Red Lion Data Station Plus to a MC43? In IQAN 5 I have configured a Generic Can Bus with a Generic Can module and using a GFOUT frame. In the Red Lion I have a CAN card and am using the IQAN driver, but I can't seem to communicate. In Analyze my address shows up as -1 and no contact. I have no idea what to try, if anyone has a working example it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Sometimes I have blue screen on my laptop when I send Project with IQANDesign or IQANRun on a MD3. I tried with many versions (2.63, 5.0, 5.2) and two laptop. 

I just want to know if somebody knows this kind of bugs.

Does anyone have any tips/tricks to break up an external function into multiple files without loosing the I/O and graphic mapping in the main program?

Through lack of fore sight 1 of my external function blocks grew to the point where windows 7 thinks IQAN is no longer responding while updating.

I have made multiple external functions and split up logic in those but I can't find a way to take the existing function blocks in the main program and point them to the newly attached external functions without re-adding the block with all the headache that causes. 

Any pro-tips would be welcome
