Text Memorising Channel

Julian Robinson 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Pierre Fagrell 4 years ago 14

I need some assistance please.  I want to memorise text from the J1939 TPIN, so they when the key is off (ie no J1939) then he text is preserved and disaplyed on the MD4-7 all the time.

The only way I can figure out to get the TPIN value into the Memorising channel is by using a state parameter channel first (SP) as this only accepts states for the text values.  Then I can get the text into the Memorising channel.  I use a IDC channel that looks at the PGN OK status to trigger the Memorising channel to Qreplace.  This stratey works fine for numbers, but not for text

BUT anytime the PGN in frame times out (ie key off), then all the text values go to blank including the Memorising channel, through that entire signal chain.  If I disable the Timeout on the PGN input, then it works, but the project now has yellow warnings for no Timoueouts and this is a messy solution.  

Can anyone please advise how to get J1939 TPIN values Memorised when the datalink is off (and all messages timeout)

Thanks

Julian

VDIN to adjust function parameter values

NEricson 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated 4 years ago 2

Is there a way to use VDIN buttons (obviously not using the toggle feature) to raise and lower a function parameter by the given step size instead of using the slider?

Stopping an parameter from being copy through a clone.

Ryan 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 6

I have a integer parameter that represents the address of a piece of equipment(MD4 is master) at a site.  There are other identical pieces of equipment at the site that will have different addresses(saved as integer parameters). (all using the same Project)

My issue is, that if someone clones (with settings) the Project from one piece of equipment and loads it into a different piece of equipment, both pieces of equipment will have the same address.  

These pieces of equipment get paired, wirelessly, with common control devices(using J1939), so they have to use the same Project with the MD4 address.  

So, is there a way to stop a parameter value from being copied through a clone(with setting) to a different MD4?

Ideally I would like the parameter to be set to the default until someone goes into the adjust menu and sets it.

If there was a way to stop all parameters from being copy using cloning for this Project, that would be ok too.

Display Module pages to Touch Screen

Anastasia Xenaki 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 years ago 1

Hello,

At the moment the display I have on the touch screen and the display I have created in the iQAN design are completely different.


I need to directly display the user interface pages to the touch screen.

How can I connect my project to the touch screen?

Thank you

Uploading using IQANdesign 6 to MC42 gives error

Theleo De Bruyn 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 years ago 26

Hi there!

I have a little problem that i tink is very weird. I recently got te newest version of IQAN Design 6 and i tried uploading it to my machine using my PC and an ethernet. (A picture of my system layout down below). The uploading proces went smooth until it needed to upload to the MC42. At that point the Screen on the MD4-5 was stuck in the blue uploading screen.(picture 2) after a minute or two my pc gave an error. (picture 3) I tried uplaoding a other program with same result, Connected a other MC42, again with the same result. Uploading using IQAN Run. with the same result. BUT using my phone and IQAN Go, with the application on my phone it went trough the whole proces without a problem after saying yes to the different project error. (picture 4) What could be the cause of this strang problem?

I have been using IQAN Design 5 the past 2 years without this ever happening.

Cheers!

Program MC2 with 6.04?

Marc Wingert 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Dogukan Sariyildiz 2 months ago 2

I have previous experience with IqanDesign about 8 years ago, including factory training at Parker Forest City.  I just downloaded the latest versions 6.04 and 4.07.  Is there a reason the MC2 cannot be programmed with the newer version?

Thanks, Marc

It would be very helpful if we could adjust VDIN button height and width dimensions.

10 Digit or More Number Entry

Kerry Brock 4 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 years ago 3

Is there a way to enter a 10 digit number in IQANdesign?

I tried using an Integer Parameter channel to do so, but it appears to only allow 9 digits.

The goal is to manually enter an IQAN module serial number since the MDGN channel for a serial number is in text format and there is no way to convert it to a numerical value.
