Is there a way to use MD4-7 in Potrait Mode?

The MD4-7 will be installed in Potrait Mode on my machine.

The default startup image in IQAN MD4-7 is a Parker Image.

Is there any way to change that? I want the MD4-7 to display a different image (my company's logo) when it boots up.

Because we ship our machines all over the world, we have to deal with a lot of units of the sensors, for example pressure in bar kPa MPa and PSI. To show the correct value the number of decimals are depending of the used unit. for bar I don't use a decimal and for MPa I use one decimal.

Is it possible to make the number of decimals depending of a channel?

Has anyone else noticed that since 5.01 upgrade, the time to save the design file is much longer.  I commonly get a "(Not Responding)" for a period of time in the window header.  Just curious to know if it may be something other than the upgrade.

Is VNC Client supported by IQAN 4 ?

i just upgraded to IQAN 5.01 and got the "refers to itself" error on one of my state parameters. 

i am refering a Text parameter into the "text" field of the states in the state parameter, 

The text parameter is using the state parameter as mode selector. 

is this bad practice or a bug in the update? 

i've done this to be able to display an editable name of my state parameter when using the state picker in the gui.

Hi,

I noticed that when copying SPNs to a new project or external FG the name is copied but you loose all translations

It would be nice to have all the information included.

Not sure how to put the correct term to this request, but to explain what I basically want to do is use VDIN buttons as EVENT COUNTER triggers. But when holding the button down for say a second then it must start triggering the event counter continuously in quick successions of say 100ms.

There must be a simple way to do this?

i'm using the "visible" slot alot in my display pages on MD4 to conditionally hide and show values/controls alot. 

When hiding a value channel, on startup, and then unhide it when for example i press a VDIN the value will not unhide until i press the button the second time. 

in the simulator everything works as expected. the value gets visable the first time i press the VDIN, but on the acctual hardware i need to press it twice.. 

Anyone seen this before? is it a calculation order thing? when do the screen refresh? can i force a "redraw" of the screen? 

and the odd thing is that it is only true for the absolute first time after boot, later on all works in the current display page..

IQAN 5.00, MD4-10

Maybe I am missing something very simple, but I am struggling to understand how to receive an analog input on a XC23 connected to a MD4, convert it to a CAN parameter (generic or J1939), insert this CAN parameter into a CAN frame and output it on the bus with the MD4 module. Everything is straight forward until having to assign the JFOUT or GFOUT to a module. The system seems to not allow me to assign the JFOUT or GFOUT to the MD4 module. Do I need to create another device on the Generic or J1939 bus and assign this output frame to that device? This is some what confusing to me as this seems really like a virtual module, as I would anticipate that the MD4 is really the device sending the message. If I have to create another module on the J1939 bus to assign this JFOUT to does it have to be a different J1939 source address than the MD4 module? Another question, if the MD4 is connected to two J1939 buses can it not use different source addresses on each bus? Please help.
