CAN Diagnostics Improvement Request
Platform 4 - MD4
Is it possible to provide more information regarding CAN error reporting ?
For example "Critical CAN Error"
Can you information regarding the type of error that has been found ? For example
-Collisions
-Insufficient termination
-Error frames
-High utilisation
Summary: If the MD4 shuts down a CAN port due to a critical error then I just want to know exactly why.
4.04 IQAN Analyse - NI CAN Analyser.
The tool now reports CAN errors. Is there any more information available regarding the error frame encountered?
Eliminate a wasted J1939 CAN BUS
I run a dedicated J1939 Bus to speak with the Vehicle CAN. I imagine most do it this way.
Now that I have to cover for the possibility of both 250kbs and 500kbs J1939 vehicle CAN buses, and do not want to have multiple versions of software floating around if I can help it (tried it, can be a bit of an unneeded mess), I am running out of CAN Buses on my MD3s.
The way it is now, I am planning on setting up 2 vehicle can buses, each with their own "engine", then pick which engine to enable in the settings (250kbs, 500kbs, or disabled). Unfortunately, that leaves me with a wasted Bus since I can not run both the 250 and the 500 to on the same physical CAN Bus pins. An empty Bus might even throw an error. I haven't tested it yet.
It would be nice to be able to select J1939 bus speed in the software settings or be able to disable the unused bus in the settings. Either would free up a bus on the MD3 so I wouldn't have to put absolutely everything else (Master, Expansion, Diagnostic, and J1939 components) all on the same physical bus.
Ports and protocols required via Ethernet connection
Could someone advise what ports and protocols IQAN software are using when connecting via Ethernet to MD4?
MDL TO MD4 CONVERSION
I new here, and new to the software platform, so hello to everyone. Although I am new to the IQAN platform I am very familiar with PLC programming and basic logic.
I am tasked with converting a bunch of MDL programs to MD4's (as we aren't going to be able to get any MDL's soon) and as I dive into this it seems like there should be a much easier way to do it.
Can someone do a quick write up of the most efficient way to complete this task?
(IQANdesign 4.01.11.4175)
Ability to change mathematical channel type (MAC, DMAC, IMAC)?
Possibility of using USB stick for downloading data?
Also it could be useful if we could also have the ability of downloading programs this way, although security could be an issue.
web interfacing options for G2
Might be dreaming, but if I could get either Myspace.com former webdesign abilities or Obsidianportal.com wiki design abilities that would be awesome. Would like to put up banners and backgrounds for my company along with links to my company website.
Javascript would be cool, though I think basic html would be enough.
For the automatic reports, I want to be able to have the server login to the machines each day and try to extract some fuel usage and performance. Logging in with IQANrun is nice, but I want the machine and server to contact me.
I can setup text messages from the machine. So that is cool. However, some of my programs are maxed out in memory, and it would be nice to put the burden on the server instead of the controllers since I perceive that the server would be better at the job. Should be cheaper than adding a module for memory or something like that, though I could be wrong.
(some of my machines just have many options all in one program)
Summary:
Ability to setup automatic reports on machine stats collected and distributed by the server
Ability to set backgrounds, banners, and general appearance for customers looking at their web portal
Ability to create wiki pages for the customer management of their machines
Configurable sample rate in IQANRun mesurements and graphs
Some signals we are trying to log over a few minutes makes for huge files that are difficult to manipulate in Excel.
I would like to see the possibility to log parameters at 500ms, 1s, 10s, 30s intervals.
Thanks !

partly locking of application in IQAN design
Hello!
we have a costumer, which would like to make an CAN-Interface for different trucks by himself.
We would like to allow this only, if we can lock in our application all things, except CAN-Interface Module for Truck.
I have tried to make some locks in the application, but this is not possible as I needed. For example I cannot lock the Menu.
Is there a possibility to lock everything, except one software module?
If not, can you program something for us?
