Current Output channel only outputing min or max values, not ramping.
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
Error2.mp4
Function group logic works even when it is disabled
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
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?
Isolating a Bidirectional COUT signal
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?
Full on Firmware Update occurred repeatedly on IQAN 7.02
I've been experiencing a situation where I'm remotely sending an update to a machine's existing idax, updating say some input range differences, what I've noticed is that its consistently perform a full-on firmware update despite being no version change between uploads, resulting an upload process that should be 5-10mins to now 40-60mins give or take.
I've tried to figure out why remotely sending the project is triggering the firmware update but I'm not able to discern anything concrete as nothing critically different is occurring between the two iterations.
How to use PCC (PIN) to make display pages accessible or hidden
Hi,
I have a app (IQAN 6.08.32) which has a a VDIN button that is supposed to make the PIN dialog popup, and if successful (valid PIN is entered) then make certain display pages accessible to a user depending on their access level. It has worked up until now when I had to make logic changes as the PIN channel was being reset preventing the ability to make adjustments using IQANrun. This in turn has broken the apps display page navigation.
I have tried several things and none seem to work. Now, since the change detailed above, when the Service Menu button is depressed, shown below in first screensnip, the app just switches to the Primary - Service Page, screensnip #2, even though it is not supposed to show unless the PCC channel is TRUE. I have checked it and it is FALSE. It seems like one can not control whether a display page is shown using a PCC (PIN), even though I have the Show control for that page set to use the PIN . Has anyone been successful in doing this, or is this a bug?


CAN-FD paged protocol
I'm interfacing a MD5 with a 2Mbit/s automotive sensor that transmits 64 byte frames on a single CAN ID in 20 frame bursts every 50ms. I am missing 19 of the 20 frames every application cycle since the CAN RX message buffer is only one frame deep.
The messages are unique and sequenced with an integer counter similar to a paged protocol. The counter and other possible pagination triggers are at the end of this 64 byte payload though. Is there any way to set page mask/filters to look beyond the 8 byte legacy CAN limit?
MC42 PWM HS+LS output overload
Does the MC42 perform an active LS diagnostic on PWM HS+LS outputs during startup, even when the application function group is disabled? We receive a Critical Overload on C1:39 with a SPAL ABL321P PWM output. Delaying the physical connection of the PWM wire until after startup completely eliminates the fault.
According to the manual, Appendix B (page 122) states that the check for an HS or LS short to the battery during startup has no contact? Or am I misunderstanding this?
Yet it does happen....
