MC4x error status

Frank GUO 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 years ago 1

Hi,


Is there any way to read the error status of MC4x? I believe when error occurred a system message would show up. But is there any channel can be used to identify what error detected?


For example, how do I retrieve the error on DOUT HS+LS?


Regards,

Frank

MC4xFS: VIN combined with CIN as safety function

Frank GUO 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 years ago 2

Hi,


In the MD4x instruction book, it says VIN can be used combined with CIN as safety function.


If the sensor normal output ranged from 0.5v-4.5v, what would be extra safety measure by adding the CIN as the ground of sensor? If the signal abnormal, it would be out of the range. Is the extra CIN doing the same thing?


Regards,

Frank

J1939 Baud Rate Adjustment

Shawn Hurst 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by mdonaldson 7 years ago 3

The J1939 speed cannot be adjusted in the adjust group of the IQAN system.  The only way to change the speed is to adjust the drop down menu in IQANdesign and resend the application.


Currently, i have to keep 2 versions of our software current with this selection in the 2 different states.  


If it was adjustable on the machine, we could use 1 program and have our technicians select the speed of the unit they are connecting to.  Something similar to using an FP with a step size of 250, min value of 250 and max value of 500.

Universal Tilt Sensor UTS programming shortcut

Eric Metz 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Mark Bevington 5 years ago 8

Does anyone have a complete program written for the IQAN J-1939 Universal Tilt Sensor?  It seems pretty straightforward, but I'd appreciate the time savings if someone already has this in an importable file.  I was hoping this would be in the "Solutions Library", but no such luck.

dm1 to multi master using appin/appout

Codie 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 6

Is there a way to either pass a DM1 message through appin/appout or have multi masters looking at the same DM1 messages from an engine. I have multiple masters and screens for an industrial app.

Array Example

mgoutier 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Felix Chacon 6 months ago 17

Can someone post an example of a decent size array so I can dissect it a bit. I'm struggling on some of the syntax of it.

Changing default language

Edzard 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated 6 years ago 5

Hello all,


I received a project that I need to revise. This project contains many translations (in software and display). The default langauge is set to Dutch however. I would like to use English in the software. Is there a way to change the default language, without losing the translations?


Thanks in advance

Reading hz more accurately

RobinArvidsson 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 9

i am using a FIN to read an RPM sensor. The sensor has 30 pulses per revolution.


Today we are getting an even value (2-4-6-8 etc.) of off the sensor. in other words 1Hz is the lowest given pulsefrequenzy. ( 1 pulse per second = 2 rev per minute 1*60/30 )


i would like to be able to read half an rpm, or even 1 rpm steps would work ( 0,5Hz )..

is this possible?


i know i could average an Array, but i would assume the FIN could give me a more accurate read, with less delay?

Generic Bus and Generic Modules

Is there an upper limit, maximum number, of generic modules that can be configured on a single generic bus for an MD4 controller?

CAN Routing

ksilovich 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Aurelio Romano 7 years ago 6

It looks like you guys added CAN routing for the MC4x family in IQAN 5, but there is no documentation of it anywhere that I can find. 


So my setup is a Generic 500k CAN bus that has 10 modules on it.  I need to place a router in front of one of the modules to block a few CAN ID, so I can broadcast it a different set of data.  The module that is behind this CAN router is also sending out its own messages to the rest of the network that the other 9 modules need to see.

So do I set up 2 routing rules?  One to go from A to B, and then B to A.

Or how would I go about setting up the CAN routers to make this possible?  



This is what I have right now.  There is one ID i need to block from the ECU to Trans, and then the Trans to ECU will all be allowed.  Will this setup work like I am wanting it to?
