I am using IQANDesign 7.05 and if I use the component navigator on a CAN Frame IN or OUT (Generic or J1939) there is a letter designated to the frame.

I thought this must have been linked to the calculation order of the frames assigned to a given module but that doesn't appear to be correct because it skips letters (i.e. not all modules have A, some skip other letters). It is also not a reference to the CAN network (A through E on an MC43) that the module is connected to because there are letters like V and W.

What does this component in the navigator mean?

Is there a way to measure the display brightness that is set in the preferences menu? I have a system with 2 MD4s, and I would like any display brightness setting set on one display to be set on the other. Could we perhaps get a module diagnostic channel for this?

With all of the IP cameras that are ISO controlled,  It would be nice to be able to use these cameras like the OEM's (Ford/Dodge/GM) are doing with these camera system.  They give you an option to Zoom in on certain things. 

Cargo Camera,  Allows you to zoom in on your goose neck ball
Rear Camera Allows you to zoom in on the trailer hitch. 
Side Camera, Allows you to zoom in on your rear tire so you don't hit a curb. 

These cameras have larger resolution then the displays have.   
Would it be possible to add some camera features to do these type of things above.   

We can already set the width and height and resolution of the camera,  but there is no way to tell the system what part of the camera feed we want to see. 

Like I want to zoom to just these area of the camera. 

If you try to control the backlight of an MD5-12 with an Integer channel,  the display will flash off about every 5 to 10 seconds.  If I turn the control to not used.  Then the backlight stays at the level that is selected in the menu system. 

This is not an issue with the 8 or 10 display,   Just the 12"  Using the latest version of 7.05.

Hello dear IQAN team and users,

I'm working with a few different machines with different IQANdesign project files.

In each project, I'm using a few different CAN databases, which are not overlapping.

When I add or remove .dbc files in the built-in tool, this happens in all projects.

Is there any way to import .dbc files only in the active/opened project?

If that's not possible, could it be an idea to have the option to import CAN database "global" e.g. for all projects (as it is now) or "only for this project"?

I think it would help me keep more structure when I work with multiple projects at once.

I am trying to connect a third-party camera to the MD4-10 display. The camera uses port 8554, while I understand that the MD4-10 uses port 554. Is it possible to change this setting on the MD4-10 display from 554 to 8554?

I'm curious as to why an iQAN design project file would transfer to a MD4 faster using iQAN Run, as opposed to transferring it using design. Can someone from Parker comment on this? Is there something I could do differently in Design to get me similar transfer speeds?

Had I known this a few years ago, I could've collectively saved HOURS of time loading programs with lots of graphic elements into machines. I have one program, that when loaded onto a brand new MD4 using Design, would take over 15 minutes. When using Run, the same program transfers in minutes.

I am noticing in IQANdesign that when you set page B to use base page A, then set page C to use base page B, the components of page A are not passed to C. Is this intentional? If so, is there a way to make it so that page A comes through to page C?

I tried to read the TSC1 message from an extrernal source with an J1939 module and an MD5-10. I have some difficulty with it. Should this be possible or can iQan only send this parameter and not read it? It works with a generic module, but I don't like to connect another CAN bus as they cannot use the same CAN bus.

I am talking with Arc about there cameras, as they support turning IR lights on and off via ISO 17215. 
Is this something that could be added in the camera controls.

Reason we need this is for military application, were we want cameras on, but cant have any exterior lights on, including IRs.
