Hello All,

It would be nice that error messages of each input or output could be independently disabled.

I'm aware of the function group method:

https://forum.iqan.se/forums/1-software/topics/662-disabling-error-message-for-a-specific-output-when-its-not-in-use/

But I might want to disable the automatic error message of a particular output or input, and still being able to identify its error state, rather than stop evaluating it.

For example, I might want to "retry" the activation of an output in overcurrent/short state, and only show a custom error message after a few tries.

Or, in case some output is not always connected to the load, but it needs to be continously turned on. For example, an output for optional working lights, or position lights, which are connected to the machine when needed, and always removed when not. I don't want to bother the operator turning on/off the output, neither with error messages if always on. ( open-load detection can't be disabled output by output on some modules ).

Thanks!

When we use a mode selector to have differents values of function parameter for each state, default values of added states are 0, maybe they could take the same value that default value has the default mode

Dear

I have a multi master system with MD4-10 and MC42.

In the user interface I show every variable on the MD4-10 and the MC42, it is great and easy.

But in application when you need to acces to a variable on other master you can use APPIN/APPOUT or use Canbus function, it is hard to use. Why there are not a "super public" variable  cross master ?

Regards

I think it would be useful to have the ability to set the time and date of the RTC on IQAN modules that have an RTC via the application.  For example, i may want to sync the time and date with another controller in the system via J1939 messages.

Dear

For next generation of product, do you think it is possible to integrate in MDxx, MCxx :

• acceloremetre and gyroscoque (a few $ ship)
  • track accident, shock
  • track machine turning (during an accident)
  • track direction change
• GPS (a few $ ship)
  • speed
  • height
  • real time (can be use for backlight night and day)
• Bluetooth and wifi
  • bluetooth : same use than G11
  • wifi with convert of TCP <-> canbus to use external device.
    

What do you thinks ?

Regards

Hello,

It would be nice to be able to change the design of the State Picker for MD4.

For example:

• Text size
• Font options
• Border options
• Colors options
• To be able to use pictures/symbols instead of using text.
• To be able to remove or change the big dot inside the State Picker.

Is there a way to calculate an 8 bit crc for all of the parameters in a frame?

It would be nice if the software allowed us to tailor what we wanted to see inside each of the adjust groups.

Example: If I wanted to see the default value of an adjust item but did not care to see the order in which it was in I would just right click order and select default value... or if i wanted it to show just the name min mix default value and step size...

The default value is the big one though.. right now for me the fastest way to check all my defaults is to simulate the program and go to the adjust groups and run down what all my defaults are to make sure they are what I want them to be.

Hello,

Recently I had an issue where code meant for machine A was uploaded onto machine B, and machine B was able to halfway function. To prevent this issue in the future, I want to have some sort of identifier that the MD4 or MDL2 can read and either continue running or throw a message saying "Incompatible Code" and quit.

So far I have thought of a few possible solutions. If possible, I would like to do this over CANbus so I don't use up input pins.Ideally, it would be nice to have a module that broadcasts a serial number or identifier over CANbus that the MD4 can read and compare to a list of acceptable machines. Another idea would be to have the MD4 check a certain "identifier" module's address and only run the code if it can find it. Worse case scenario, we can use some sort of hardware tag, like a resistor, to send a voltage to one of the input pins.

Since I am a novice with IQAN software, I am curious if you have any better ways to do this. How would I implement such a feature?

Thanks for any help, I appreciate it!
