Hi there,

For a project I have to couple an IQANs system with a RS485 sensor. I was thinking a J1939/ CanOpen to RS485 converter could work. Has anyone done something like this?

Thank you in advance.

I'm having some strange problems with simulating a CIN channel.

setting:

min: 4000 uA

max 20000 uA

scaled min 0 

scaled max 1935

when simulating, the slider will not move within the 4000/20000 or 0/1935 range but between 1935 to 77400.

Hello,

We have a machine working from october 2020. it has a MD4-7:

On 7th June, the customer sent us this blue screen:

After switching off and on it has started perfectly. this is the MD4 log where we cannot see anything strange:

Shredder display master log (PY200046 - AC....irlx

Last week we received another feedback from another customer (working from may 2019) with this blue screen: 

By the moment, it has appeared just once. We hope this will not appear again.

But, if it possible, we would like to have any clue about waht can be the reason of those blue screens? We need to say somthing to our customers...

Thanks in advance,

Adolfo

Hello

I have an application where the Transmission rate of a GFOUT must change during operation. 

The Rate should be 1000ms. But when the cylinder moves the rate should drop to 20ms. I cannot use therefore an Initializion block. How do i get it to work.??

Hello everybody,

right now I'm working on a project wich requieres saving a lot of values and saving them in a .cws file.

I want to monitore around 10 different channels over a time span of around 8 hours on a frequence of around 100hz (= 100 values per channel per second). 

Additional i want to add a timestamp to each value. This needs to be kind of automated. In the best case i would want to push a Button on the display at t=0 and after around 8 hours later,i would push another button to stop the measurement, connect to the MD4 via Laptop, download my values and save them in a .cws file. 

I thought of something like a Measure group wich can be startet via the push of a button and wich saves the stored values and lets me export them.

I'm really gratefull for any help with this topic.

Thank you very much.

Example:

We tested this in the shop before combining programs with duplicate address tags. see the images below. there are never two of any address in the program being looked for at one time. this worked good for a half a day during testing and now we are seeing issues with the duplicate addresses loosing contact but not giving a duplicate error as you would see with two of one addressed module. the machine will work for a while and then loose contact for a few seconds and come back on line. Is this a program issue because of duplicate addresses or something else i am missing? 

I am trying to input a fixed value to a j1939 parameter with 4 bytes but after it accepts the value it moves the decimal and removes the last couple integers. My resulting outgoing message is wrong. I tried to input 1955772161 to receive a message of 01 b7 92 74. but instead I received 00 b7 92 74. I am using iqan  6.06. I can use two 2 byte j1939 outs but would be nice to fix this.

I need to change the background color for the pop up message boxes. I am using white screens so the messages pop up black text with a gray back ground. It is difficult to see in the sun. I need a white back ground.

Why is there no information any where on setting up an encoder. You have to set the Max Pulse to 1 and the Scaled Max to 4 . There is no description anywhere on how to set these values.

When trying to update a older 4.07 program by opening it in 6.06 - I get an error Corrupt file.  I can open it in IqanDesign 6.04 and save it and then it will open in 6.06 so I can keep going but there seems to be a bug in 6.06.
