Hello

It is possible to measure a frequency with a md4 ?

Thank

I have an application where I am using a gauge to display the position of a rotating object. I make the 12 o'clock position the 0° point. I noticed that as my input is rotating from clockwise, that the needle on the gauge rotates counter clockwise from 359° back to 0°.

It would be nice to have the gauge continue to rotate in a clockwise direction as my input crosses the 0° threshold.

We have a system with MC43FS > MD5-10 > MC43FS layout. The MD5 display is central between the MC43's using the CAN in/out pins for connections. CAN terminations (software enabled) on both MC43 master and diagnostic busses (each MC43 module is end of line).

We had a fault where there was no comms on the master bus using APP IN/OUT between any of the 3 modules, just indicated red in IQAN design and state 'timeout' on the app in's. No error flash on the MC43 LED and no error message shown on the MD5.

We found that the master bus wired in the MD5 was the wrong way around (CAN high /CAN low incorrect), but it did not show this as an error, no logs suggested what the problem would be. I'm sure normally if this happens we get a bus error/ CAN fault shown on the screen, pointing us to where the problem may be, but this doesn't seem to have happened in our case. Could be helpful for future fault finding if it was available or showed a message?

IQAN Design 7.05.27.10982

If I export an image group in iQAN 7.06.22, any images with a period in there name in iQAN will export without the period and anyting that follows the period. It does not matter if what follows is text or numbers.

Example: Image named "test-circle-5.2" will export as "test-circle-5"

The customer encountered a strange problem, they use the MEM channel to accumulate the total mileage. The system uses MD5 and MC43FS controllers, and the programs are also separate. The customer uses the same algorithm to perform operations in two separate controllers. In MD5, everything is normal and the total accumulated mileage has been increasing all the time. However, in MC43FS, once the values accumulate to 2048km, they will no longer increase. I use the IQANsimulate to monitor that MC43FS can also break through 2048km. 

The difference between the two programs lies in their different Cycle time. MD5 is 50ms, MC43FS is 10ms.

What could be the reasons for this problem?

Is there any intention of being able to convert text project files into Standard Project files? Or even better opening from a text file.

Saving a project file as a text file allows for revision control and diffs. Also this could allow for LLM assisted coding and troubleshooting.  

An XC43 sent a COUT error to the MD4 display, which is the master module in the CAN bus network. However, the error was not logged in the MD4 log. Any idea why this might be happening?

Hi,

I want to create an External Function that will contain a JFIN. 
When I will import the External Function, I would like to be able to vary the PGN property of the JFIN.
At the moment, it seems that the PGN property of the JFIN can only accept integer number, it cannot accept an integer coming from a channel.
If I insert the External Function in my project, I will not be able to change the PGN property of the JFIN because it will be locked. And I do not want to change it to the same PGN value for all the occurences of the External Function.
I would like the PGN to be a FGI to the External Function.

My use case is that I want to control Hawe PSx CAN valves where they have a different PGN for each valve section. It would be neatly integrated inside an External Function so I could reuse it for all the different valve sections I have in my project.

Any workaround?

Thank you and have a good day!

Hi,

I would like to ask about the best way to update a program on a machine that already has an existing IQAN application installed, especially in cases where some parameters have been modified from their default values.

If we upload a new program with the same project ID:

• Will it overwrite the existing settings (i.e., reset parameters to default)?
• Or will the current parameter values be preserved?

I want to make sure we avoid unintentionally resetting user-defined or tuned parameters during an update.

Thanks in advance!

I am having an issue with a dual display setup that has multiple cameras.   The cameras we are using supports 5 streams.  
If both displays have the feed going, and one display is turned off or looses power, the stream on the other display goes down, and the only way to bring it back online is to power up the other display or cycle power on the ethernet switch. 

Is this normal behavior.  if so is there any way to see the camera status for the display, so after x amount of time, of not having a camera feed, I could reset power to the switch to resolve this issue?
