Low frequency PWM
Hi
To control a visco fan clutch a low frequency PWN signal is needed ideal 1 to 5 Hz
a standard Iqan PWM goes only as low as 10 Hz.
is it a problem to use a Dout and plus this output? using a timer and change the on period?

I used a standard Dout, but the principle you are describing.
worked fine..!

IQAN Design 4.02 issues
2 issues I have ran across with IQAN Design 4.02.16
1) Some time when working the Select All function stops working. I have to close the program and restart it to use it again.
2) When resizing a Comment Box it will jump left and up quite a bit. It doesn't stay fixed in the location it was in before.
On a side note of that it would also be nice that when you copy and paste a comment it remains the same size. Currently when you past it it goes to a define size instead of what was copied.

J1939 code reader in 4.02 not working
We have written our own code reader (DM1) for engine which works in 3.19 but when converted to 4.02 it does not read the PGN's and reads as false (not evaluated). The PGN's have always had a warning of "invalid Identifier" since Iqan 3 but still would read and worked fine. Now they are not evaluated. The PGN's are 65226, 60416, and 60160 and I believe are necessary for reading DM1 faults and BAM messaging.
Is there a change in 4.02 that would cause this? How do I get these to read?

How To Modify I Pulse
Hi Guys,
New to IQAN so please be kind lol.
I normally write in CodeSys.
I have a pulse input in to a MD4-7. I want to now take that pulse and modify it with an adjust group I have to create a modified pulse that I can then read with a gauge.
I have the pulse in, I have the adjust group, what do I use to read these?

Log size
Can anyone advise how big a log record is (analogue values) so that I can determinate the capacity of the logging memory in terms of number of records. Is all of the 64MB available for logging or is some reserved for system logs?

New Here, Image Questions
Hi All,
Is there any way to import a single image and rotate it on a MD4-7? Othere than creating multipal images at different rottions?

axis camera 4.01
I have a potential application where I would need to display streams from 2 axis cameras. One will be a visual light unit and the other will be a thermal imaging unit. I guess I will need to use a POE switch to connect the units to a screen. Has anyone tried this type of set up?
Also the visual light camera has a zoom function - how could this be controlled via IQAN?

restoring from a backup file
Help!!!
I have been working all morning on a sequential application and on doing a save - Iqandesign has completely frozen and eventually crashed windows!
Unfortunately I made the fatal error of not pressing the save button frequently enough and so the only live file on my machine is the one I started with at 8.30 this morning!!
There is a backup file which appears to be from just before the crash but when I try to open it Iqan is telling me that it was made by a previous version of Iqandesign 4
Is there any way of finding out which version and is it possible to download older versions - I can't find them on the parker website - only the latest version.

Pin Code Time and Date Entry V2.63 MD3
Is there a method available to protect, via pin code access, changing the time and date entry via preference date/time display page in an MD3?
We have been experiencing issues with operators on one of our end-user sites with our mobile equipment. We have implemented a method of tracking the operator that is currently using the equipment via a terminal access key value being transmitted to the MD3 over J1939 bus and then capturing the data via event logs. The events are time/date stamped, works well. The new issue we are experiencing is that the operators are now manipulating the system time and date and I would like to inhibit them from being able to do so.

User input of values
I have an application where I am using an Intellinder cylinder that has the position feedback. I need to be able to allow the user to input the value of the position that he wants the cylinder to go to (extend or retract) and then execute the movement through a PID loop. I am having difficulty with the user input of "ending" position. The precision can be up to 0.01". I can use an adjust item to input the value, but I don't see a way for the default value to read the current cylinder position nor do I see a way to have the adjust item display on the home page instead of in the adjust sub-menu. Any thoughts, ideas, etc. are greatly appreciated. I could use some urgent help desperately.
Thanks
