Codie 4 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 4 months ago 1

Hello, I have a few 12 Bit messages that need to be received as big endian. Due to that the bits to receive on is 16 to 23 and then 28 to 31. I'm using a generic parameter in.

Function Parameter with Mode selector

James31 4 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 months ago 3

Hi All.

I am using a function parameter with mode selctor and want to be able to update values via an MD4 display and using the adjustment screen. I don't seem to be able to display anything other than mode one as an option to adjust via the screen. Since a application update does not change defult values I can't now change my mode 2+ function paramater values. Anyone help with what I am missing please?

Diag bus on C or D

I get a hint that "CAN port C or D not recommended for diagnostics". Can you explain why and what issues may arise from this?

Bus utilization of XC4x modules in MC43 & MD5 system

Kevin 5 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 months ago 5

We are planning on having 1 x MC43FS M24 with a single expansion bus loaded with 5 x XC43 modules. All the IO on each module is not used but it would be nice to have them all the same modules for consistency throughout the system. Is there any concerns with bandwidth with 5 modules on a single bus or is it worth cutting as many down to the smaller XC42 or XC41 where possible? They may have lower bus utilisation with the smaller variants? 


Are all the 5 x busses on the MC43 range the same throughput? (MD4 for example had faster busses on A and B I think).

We are planning on 6 x MD5 connected to the MC43, and I have reservations about bandwidth also on the master and diagnostics bus. 

Is CAN FD coming soon? hopefully this will ease my concerns as there is not any real way of calculating bus loads, only measure when the system is complete?

Bluetooth disconnected scenario continues measure

Kevin 5 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 months ago 1

If a system gets switched off or becomes disconnected suddenly (interrupted Bluetooth) during measure in IQAN design, I have noticed that measure still remains active and design wont let you do anything until the measure icon is switched off. Initially took me a while to see what was happening as the comms toolbar (I was attempting to reconnect) was greyed out until the measure was unlatched. See measure icon below still active after disconnect and browsing to a page in the logic.

Weirdly it displays a simulator error after disconnect even though its actual hardware I was connected to:

If you disconnect manually using the comms menu it unlatched the measure, would be helpful if it did this also with comms failure.

Hello,

Where can we learn the capacity of the processor of the MC42-MC43 controllers, how much of it we use, and how much we need to use?

Hi, There are many function groups, I rewrote a function group. Can I run the other one without deleting that group? Or how can I deactivate that old function group?

Timer Channel

Nur 5 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 5 months ago 3

Hello, does the Timer channel send data only in 50 mS? Can we reduce this? We want it to do it more frequently. How can we do this?

Wire kit 20085205 missing Address wires for MD5?

Jacob Meng 5 months ago in IQANdesign updated by Jos Lentfert 5 months ago 4

Wire kit 20085205 does not have C1:31 and C1:45 for an address tag even though it is shown on the pinout. Is there an internal selectable tag? Do I need to manually add these wires?
