Hello, 

Since we have been using iqan design for a few years, some colleagues and I think that it would be really useful to be able to add images to illustrate / describe a part of the code in some cases.
These images could be reduced to a few kb automatically so as not to take up too much space in an application.
Is this a feature that would be feasible?

Thank you

I don't understand what is going on in v6.08 IQANdesign.  I can no longer assign a 29 bit CAN ID to a GFOUT.  When it's first assigned everything seems okay, but as soon as you run Project Check, it then flags the ID as "Value not within limits".

NOTE:  The ID I am attempting to use IS WITHIN LIMITS as it is less than 536,870,911 (0x1FFFFFFF) as detailed in the text explanation box.  Did v6.08 break this ability????  See below:

Hello,

I am working with a device that sends multiple frames using the same message ID. Often times there is a parameter that contains data from two different frames, for instance, Parameter "X" (32 bit float pt) data can be found in Byte 6 & Byte 7 of Frame 01 and Byte 1 & Byte 2 in Frame 02. I'm able to use the paged/mask filter successfully to capture the multiple frames but am stuck with how to take the individual bytes and convert them to 32 bit float. I've noticed a Generic Parameter In Channel handles it automatically when assigned "real" and is pointing to the 4 Bytes but this only works when the data (4 bytes) are packed into the same frame, not spread across two different frames. Thank you!

Hi there, I am wondering if anyone can help me with a feature I really think is important:

I use 2x MD4-7 displays (and 3x MC43's) in a Multi Masters system

What I want is to recall the Dialogue Box or Conditional Message for all active "System", "Engine DM01" or "CMSG" generated errors/faults/messages etc, with a single button - any active fault message that would appear within the dialogue box on the screen.

Then I want to scroll through these messages without accepting them/cancelling them with the cross on the (RHS Top) box with a forward, backwards button etc, before eventually cancelling the on screen dialogue box all together (with or without accepting the faults). This I feel is a really important feature. People want to know all the active faults/message of the entire system, but without them disappearing altogether from the screen before the information is understood.

There is a timer to re activate the dialogue box, but this is really not a good option. I need a recall on demand, not a timer.

I see this on other engine displays (Murphy etc). So far I cant figure this out, so of anyone knows how to do this it would be great!

Otherwise, this is a really good feature to add to new feature request list please?

Thanks!

So we are running into an issue where we have an integer adjust parameter that had a range of 0-400 and we decided to change the range to 0-60, but if we update systems that have a value set greater than 60 then the adjustment slider in the MD4 is disabled and you cannot set the value, without going through the IQAN go app to force the parameter into the range. Is there a way to either have it set the parameter to either the max value or to the default value during an update? Preferably it would just keep the value and allow you to update using the slider, jumping into the new range. Thanks

Hi!

I've stumbled upon something that maybe you guys could clarify or just acknowledge:

I exported a Generic Frame(GFIN) with associated Generic Parameters(GPINs) to a DBC-file but the units for the parameters don't get exported. Everything else works just fine!

I selected the GFIN in the Function Group and then clicked "File" -> "Export" -> "Export CAN database..." and saved the file but upon opening it the units for the parameters are nowhere to be seen.

Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?

I am using IQANdesign 6.07.8.7990.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Hello,

I have an SV Camera and an MD4-7 on separate power supplies.
They're communicating over a wireless link.

If I power up the SV Camera before I power up the MD4, it never links up. Always shows 'No Contact' for the camera.

Is there a way to avoid Power Cycling the camera?

I could see a static IP avoiding the need for the DHCP process, but I don't believe you can configure the SV Camera to have a static IP.

Channel values are obstructed by green box while in measure mode. It would make more sense to move green box to far right.

I just updated IQANdesign to 6.08.22.8040. Why some of the IDC, SMC and DMAC channels are now yellow?

Hello,

I am attempting to setup DM1 Out messages in a project utilizing a MC43 and running into a few challenges. 

1. How can I propagate the status of a I/O to a Math or IDC channel? I am mapping a I/O to intermediate channels so that a single application can support multiple machine models and hardware layouts. The Math/IDC channel have a Equipment Model configured as a function selector. I want to use that Math/IDC channel then in the DM1 Out container as a Status type so that a FMI can be set based on the status of the actual I/O.

Is there a way do this?

If would be nice if StatusOf(VIN-A:MC43FS[0]) spit out a integer which could be used in the FMI field of a Value type DM1 out.

2. I've noticed that I get a project error if I create a Status DM1 out and a Value DM1 out that use the same SPN number. It would be nice if you could mix these as long as the FMI configured for the Value type did not overlap with the FMIs used in the Status Type. Is there a possible way to have a Status and Value type DM1 out that utilizes the same SPN number?

Thank you,
