I have a program that uses a directional pulse count channel. I have sent the program with all of the boxes UNchecked for send get options but it still resets the channel. Can anyone offer insight on what the proper settings should be that will retain the accumulated position when you load the program so that it doesn't reset to 0. I am sure that there is small that i am missing, but i need some help with it. 

Here are my current settings:

Send/Get OPTION SETTINGS: (I have attempted sending with all of these unchecked but still get the same result)

Directional pulse count channel: (the IDC does not fire until a button is pressed on a remote screen which is inbound from a canbus display. 

I'm researching CAN open safety sensors and trying to establish how the communication works. I'm under the impression that CAN Open safety is not a totally new protocol but rather a way of transmitting data between devices in a safe way, using standard CAN Open protocol by anti-phasing some of the message contents.

Will the MC4xFS modules support CAN Open Safety communication with the specification of a device that is compliant with SIL 2, pLd as detailed below?

CAN interface (hardware):

According to ISO 11898-1 & ISO 11898-2 (also known as CAN 2.0 A/B)

CANopen application layer and communication profile:
CANopen Safety protocol: EN 50325-5, CANopen protocol: EN 50325-4 (CiA 301 v4.0 & and 4.2.0)
CANopen device profile for inclinometers: CiA 410 version 2.0.0

The common ground between the two is the CAN 2.0A and CAN 2.0B, does this mean i can achieve CAN safety communication?

Has anyone had any experience with these devices or perhaps a template application they could share?

Thanks.

Preferred System Layout in Iqan Design 4 

State Parameter Channel

Input Channel = None

Feature request: Set the default state to a value other than state 0.

I want the same behaviour as a function parameter.

Hi All,

Could anyone please let me know if there is a tool for the IQAN suite that can translate the contents of the Menus and the standard messages from IQAN (Overloads, open load, no contact, etc)? 

Peace,

Nico

It would be nice if the min and max values for the Y-axis of a line graph could be driven from a channel rather than static?

Is there a way to log an array.  I have 4 values that are put into an array that I want to log for future data analysis and logging them as 4 separate items does not allow for using the data effectively.

Dear

Hello

It would be really interesting to be able to assign parametrizable functions to certain settings which are for the moment, inaccessible with parametrizable functions or mathematical function in order to have more flexibility in writing. Here is a concrete case that I am facing more and more! I often have several machines at the same customer, which are very similar, but with some small differences. We would like to gather all the programs of the different machines in one and to come to select it by means of parametrizable function. Until then, there are not too many difficulties. On the other hand, sometimes some are equipped with outputs (current out) bidirectional or unidirectional. This choice can not be made other than by selecting yes or no. I did not find the way to associate them with a logic or function configurable.

It would also be interesting to be able to activate or deactivate a calculator by configurable function. Example: for the same customer, sometimes I will have 1 MD4, a Mc43 sometimes an MC41 and sometimes nothing. But each time, the same graphical interface. Basically, it would be really interesting to be able to associate with all the settings available in yes no, by mathematical or Tor or adjustable functions.

Thanks

I have an MD4 connected to a computer via CAN.

I have designed a keyboard in the MD4 to send keystrokes to the computer so that it behaves as a regular keyboard in windows.

Now I would like the possibility to create a mousepad in the MD4 as well. If i could just read the coordinates of a touchposition this would be easy. Is there a way to do this or could it be implemented?
