Hello all,

Back in the history 😊 IQAN TALK !

IQAN DG screen was in German and the MENU button was not working so I could not access any menus or change the languages

I managed to repair it (dirt on the PCB card) and all buttons are working now, I changed the language to ENGLISH and been able to understand the error message on the screen “Release Joystick”

Joystick rubber boots are not in really good shape so first thing is to set up new one if it’s still available, I am looking at it

I can also offer the customer a repair on his JS but in between I would like to increase the deadband with IQAN TALK software

I connect my laptop, managed to get connection on COM PORT 3 but when I tried to GET the application , that message pop up:

No manufacturer ID, this application probably too old

I have connect many machine of that age with IQAN TALK and never had any problem of communication

What do you thing, have you seen that before? 

Br

/Adrien

It flashes 3 yellow an 2 red 

I am able to get on Bluetooth with iqanrun.

I am able to pull the code off and upload the code

I did this all without a password. how do i enable a password as this will be going to market ?

Can someone explain to me why it is important to have a superuser password?

Do I still need it even if I already have a full access password and limited password?

thank you

Information for the different IQAN trainings can now be found in the "Links" on the main page.

Hello,

We have a crane control application on MD4-5 and occasionally this message pops up and the whole system is paralyzed and you don't have access to any menu, until restarting the system. 

What is that external system?

Is there any way to label the list of static IP addresses with a user defined machine ID rather than the IP address?

When I enter an IP address (e.g. 10.1.1.1 ) into the static modules list, it's machine ID is listed as the 10.1.1.1. But is there a way for me to change that to e.g. MACHINE 101? So I don't have to refer to a separate list I have created which translates the IP address to a machine ID that I am familiar with?

Hey

I have a couple of channels in a project that tell me there is an implicit value conversion occurring. What I'm confused about is exactly what it means and why its a warning?

In the Qcode below:-

HydOilLowNCorNO is a digital parameter that determines whether the input condition is NC or NO which translates to if a logic 1 is good or bad.

MaintBypassSensorHydOilLow is a digital parameter that determines whether we should action the sensor inputs or simply ignore them. iI's used here in this channel and in an almost duplicate of the channel that deals with digital input HydOilLevelVeryLow which is the last switched step on the tank level sensor and which triggers an immediate idle down, and timed shutdown of engine 

The Qcode is:-

TempResult:=0
If HydOilLowNCorNO Then TempResult:=Not(HydOilLevelLow) else TempResult:=HydOilLevelLow
If MaintBypassSensorHydOilLow then TempResult:=0
Result:=TempResult

The warning I get is that the bolded underline is an implicit value type conversion. What I struggle to understand is what is being converted? everything except the local variable TempResult is digital including the channel type IDC. There as far as I know is no way to declare a variable as specifically type digital and if I change line 1 to TempResult:=False then I get another implicit value type conversion warning for that line.

I know a warning isn't the end of the world but what do I need to do to get rid of the warning or produce better code? Is there a way to declare the local variable TempResult as type digital that Im simply not aware of?

Warnings in IQAN Design  to me infer something is suboptimal but here I cant see what I should do to change that.

Hi

I have a remote machine that has a teltonika modem on it that I can access remotely using OpenVPN. I know the configuration of the VPN is good because I can access the Teltonika admin pages (192.168.10.1) without issue from my laptop connected to my phone hotspot on 192.168.111.100

In the Teltonika  admin pages I can see that the modem has allocated a DHCP address to the MD4-10 module and I can ping it and successfully get responses from the display.

In Design I can see the MD4-10 module in the discovered modules but its discovered with an IP address of 172.16.0.1 which is the VPN endpoint assigned to the openVPN tunnel at the modem end. Ive added a static module with the right IP address of 192.168.10.14, but unlike the discovered module the indicator light never turns green.

Any attempt to communicate with the module fails with a "failed to open a new communication session" error.

Has anyone dealt with this issue before and sorted a way through it, I'm trying to work out if this behaviour is due to a missconfiguration of my vpn, or if its by design because I know Parker have a solution exactly in this space. If my understanding is correct though its a 3G based solution where Australian Telco's have all announced end of life for 3G in comming nearterm months so not a particularly long life solution.....

help if you can
