Visual compare tool

The ability to compare project file with a visual tool would be nice.
Because for big project the text files compare is difficult to use.

Mode selector for "Text Formatting Channel"

ksilovich 11 years ago in IQANdesign updated 11 years ago 2

It would be nice to be able to assign a State machine or parameter to a "Text Formatting Channel".

I have a situation where I have "Group A", 10 Text Parameters with with a state machine (10 states) assigned to it. And a "Group B" of 15 Text Parameters with a 15 state machine. I would like to use a Single Text formatting channel to Add Group A to B for certain situation.

Trying to display the text on the screen currently is painful.


Also on a separate note it would also be nice to be able to use a Text Formatting Channel in a Text Parameter.

application input output vs j1939 input output for master modules

Zach 11 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 5
I wondered about application inputs and outputs vs j1939 inputs and outputs for master module communication.
If I understood it correctly, an MC2 master received a digital value from an MD4 master module via an application in/out pair.
Then in another location in the program, the MD3 and MD4 exchanged information through J1939 pgns.

How do I know when to use Application in/out or J1939 in/out?

Hello


It is possible to measure a frequency with a md4 ?

360° Rotation of Gauges

John Wambold 11 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 7 years ago 7

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.

Current Output channel only outputing min or max values, not ramping.

NEricson 2 days ago in IQANdesign 0

I have multiple machines programmed with the same program. One machine has a Current Output channel that wont ramp with the input channel. Once it sees a value it jumps to 100% output instead of ramping. Ive tried changing from (Multiply%) to (AbsoluteMaxOf) even thought it has 1 controlling line. In the process of diagnosing we've even tried 7.05 and 7.06. Again I have identical machines with identical programs and they operate correctly. Error1.mp4

Function group logic works even when it is disabled

Ed Schippers 5 days ago in IQANdesign updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 5 days ago 5

When using a function group with a slope filter, I encountered a problem: the slope continues to increase, even when the group is disabled. It appears that the group continues calculating in the background.

MD5 ID tag with termination

minh lam 1 week ago in IQANdesign updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 1 week ago 1

So if the MD5 states it does not have internal termination, I can not set termination in IQAN design. Does this also mean that using a ID tag with (T) such as 20085140 (0T) will not terminate the bus?

PWM IN MC43, Signal Conversion

Amir Darvish 2 weeks ago in IQANdesign updated 5 days ago 2

Controller: IQAN-MC43, Connector C1, Pin 12 (IN_34, pull-up type frequency input)

Issue: I'm feeding a 200 Hz, ~60% duty cycle open-collector signal into pin 12, using the module's internal pull-up (per manual: 1.5 kΩ to internal 5V, 10 nF) with no external resistor. Instead of a clean square wave, the signal reads as a sawtooth that never reaches 0V - high sits around 4.6V, low only drops to ~4.3V.

I've confirmed pin 12 floats at 4.6V unloaded, and leakage from my circuit is negligible. Tried several pull-up configurations externally; sink current into the pin stays very low (~0.2-0.5 mA) regardless.


Questions:

1. Is 1.5 kΩ/10 nF correct for this input type?

2. What sink current is needed to reliably trigger a logic-low on this pin?

3. Any recommended interfacing for low-current-sinking sources on these inputs?


Thanks for any guidance.

Isolating a Bidirectional COUT signal

Jeff Stephenson 2 weeks ago in IQANdesign updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 1 week ago 2

Would there be a way to isolate a bidirectional current out so that our negative signal will not trigger an open load fault when not connected?
