It would be nice if the minimum threshold current that a HS + LS digital output was lowered. A lot of relays only have about 480 ohm resistance, putting the current draw at around 50 mA, 10 mA lower than the threshold. And the output being used as a safety outputs cannot bypass the undercurrent detection. Would 20 - 30 mA be achievable?

Using IQANdesign 6.05.18.6047 and trying to incorporate lines with gradients on the MD4. 

When developing User Interface in IQANdesign the lines with gradients appear as they should.

However when simulating, not all gradients appear as designed and are one solid colour. Appears to only happen on a portion of the page.

I have a problem with two sw version i created v1 and v2 on (MC42) ,there was no major change other then changing the time out to" Not Used" on other controllers(air compressor and air dryer ctrl's) on the j1939 bus. when i flashed 36  it shows contact but its crashing the bus( i cannot read any message on the pcan unless i unplug the mc42) once i flash back to 35 everything works except the (air dryer and the air compressor) .

please help

We have a new machine where this has happened a few times now.

Suddenly the image on the screen will freeze and stop updating.

It seems to be repeatable by using the joystick encoder at a particular screen.

We are using "External button control" to select sliders and buttons on the screen by turning the encoder.

The way to repeat the problem:

Select a slider with the encoder

Click a button on the screen which hides that slider.

Exit and enter the menu page in question

Turn the slider

Of note is also that one of the sliders never hide, even though it's "visible" object is false.

I can send the file if you like.

After a few seconds of pressing the screen it resets to the boot image and gets stuck there.

Even though the screen is stuck at boot image, MD4 and XC42 are running like normal in background.

It is possible to start and stop the diesel engine with the J1939 joystick.

It is possible to connect with iQANdesign and iQANrun to take measurements

Cycle time is 23%

CAN utilization is low.

No errors in log file.

Power cycle gets everything back to normal.

So when I export my complete generic CAN database, by going to the Generic CAN module, selecting everything with ctrl A and then going File-->Export-->Export CAN Database, it will export the .dbc however it is missing every 32 bit offset parameter in any paged protocol Generic Frame ins, other than in the 0 page. This does not occur if I just select a single Generic Frame In channel and export it. Any help or potential work arounds would be appreciated. Thanks

How can I use a gauge in IQANscript 6. The button to add this function is not responding and in the manual I cannot find any further conditions for adding this function.

I have a system where I have an MD4-5 connected to an MC43 in a multi-master system, using both APPIN/APPOUT and J1939 messages between them.

I have implemented a FINITE STATE MACHINE in the MD4-5 master, and send the representative code to an identical mock-up of FSM in the MC43 (with all the same links).

For some reason I have cases where the MC43 system will either revert back from one state (4) to 0 and then back again (very briefly). At other times, I can see on my screen a J1939 (or APPIN) message (since I've tried it both ways), where the input number is 6, but the FSM in the MC43 will stay at 5 and not change to 6. What is also strange is that there is no path from 4 to 0 in my FSM design (though I suspect the default value on a CAN error, even with the master bus, is 0).

I am running IQANDesign 6.02.7.5650 (and hope to get an update if our new license code arrives)

We are using a cellular modem to allow our MD4 to connect to IQAN connect. While attempting to update the system using remote connect on IQAN Run the process will hang after updating the MD4.

It is possible to open the application logic in Iqan run with a lower security user level than I want.

This user level has to update a project, but is not allowed to open the application logic. 

Do I miss anything, and how do I have to do this, or is this really possible that everyone with a security level password can see the application logic in Iqan run?

Kind regards, Laura

After I send the project the screen goes blue and shows text below. I take out one of the larger function blocks and then it works.
