Do the Drivers support it yet?

Hi guys,

I have been working with a customer remotely using G11/12 and have encountered the following problem. Master module MD3 v 15 program designed in IQAN Design 5.08. Sent program update to the remote MD3 via G11/12 and remote module stopped with 'blue screen' and the following message:

Startup

Opening application

System started

The system has encountered a situation which could not resolve

The unit has entered a safe state for your protection.

Out of memory (heap). Reduce application size!

MD3 #312040107

Proc: OSP qui MainProcess

Code: 5.08.1-OOM0-000000000

Please write down the message  above and contact your local...

The unit would not restart. I was lucky I had another MD3 unit loaded with size reduced program and quickly sent to the customer. However I don't know what to do with the previous unit and what options I have.

Initial program statistics:

Any help will much appreciated

Even though IDC is public, it cannot be assigned as input to the function group.

I'm trying to test a timer logic implemented in Simulink model which has step size 10ms, whereas IQAN cycle time is set as 5ms, but the output is not as expected. But this works exactly as expected when i set IQAN cycle time same as Simulink model step size.

What might be the issue? I tried changing Simulink block property 'synchronized' in IQAN but no success.

My further implementation would also be using Simulink top model with 2 reference models of different step size. So, IQAN cycle time = 5ms, Simulink model ref1 = 10ms and Simulink model ref2 =20ms. What should be the approach to ensure timing requirements?  Any help on this would be great.

Thank you in advance.

I just had IQANdesign 7.02 crash

I changed to a display page and started to zoom in to see the text better

Then it popped up the regular dialog box to make a bug report. The display page was still resizing slowly in the background

Before I had time to fill the text in the program exited completely including the bug report box

The message was something about "Illegal floating point" in some QT library

I was using SVG file for the startup graphic. It worked fine until update 7.02.20.9286. It started showing the Parker Logo. I tried deleting and re-importing. It showed imported and connected to the master module startup image, but still the Parker Logo showed at startup. So, I ended up changing the file type to PNG. This worked. Are SVG files no longer supported for startup images?

Whenever I delete a state in a finite state machine that has state trasitions connected, it crashes IQAN design. If I delete all the state transitions first, it will allow me to delete it without crashing. 

i check the project it gets to 90% a wait and then a  crash

i am guessing if it cannot get past that it will not upload

i sent all the crashes to parker by answer yes to send it in.

I am having trouble uploading an .idax project file to a multi-master bench test system (two MD4-7). Electrically, the two modules are connected to 12VDC and each other via a diagnostic CAN-A connection. I am connected to the computer via ethernet and C3 port. The series of events was as follows:

1. Various uploads during initial testing were successful and allowed me to develop the system.
2. After ~>1 week of uploads, the errors began. Error is as follows:
   1. Send project to device, select device as recognized by IQANdesign
   2. MD4 screens go blank and sometimes show Parker Logo
   3. Sometimes a blue screen (Attached image) flashes (~0.5s freq) on headmaster MD4 for ~30s
   4. IQANdesign popup shows "Sending project to system, No reply from master module"
   5. Then MD4s revert to previous program
3. After a weekend of not touching the MD4's, a program was successfully uploaded a single time, but has not worked since then
4. Programs can be uploaded to isolated MD4s, but cannot be uploaded when the two are linked via the diagnostic CAN-A connection.
5. Issue persists to empty project with just two MD4-7's and diagnostic port CAN link, and using different CAN ports for the diagnostic line.

I recently encountered this. I had a functional parameter that I would enter the default for. When I would save and close out then reopened the project, the default was not saved. I have also thought this happened to a math function as well where I would enter in some commands and saved but when I reopened the project, the commands were not there anymore. The only way I could get it to save properly was to re-order the calculation order. Is this a known issue, I don't know why the calculation order has anything to do with the program's ability to save the project. Using IQAN design 5.03
