I have a program in v4 that can't currently be upgraded, yet I need the initialization functionality like in v6. Cycle utilization is an issue so I'm looking to find out what the most efficient way to keep the controller from processing a lot of math every loop and just keeping the resulting parameters after the initial calculation.

Will an if/else statement with a static init variable accomplish this or does the controller still process all of the Qcode even if it is not executed? Is there a better way?

The following characters show up on a label in the simulator but not on an MD4-7

Hello,

I purchased the IQAN Run software and install the license key into my laptop by mistake. I want to put the license key into my colleague's laptop but unfortunately it is not allowing me to register it. Is there is any way to put the license key to my colleague's laptop?

Thank you

Hi,

I haven't received an email with the correct key for the 10 bluetooth connections with IQAN RUN, where can I see my key? I can't work without these connections.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Lorenzo Simonetti

I am working with a file that has many settings and it would be nice to be able to save the settings file in a format that would allow saving in a spreadsheet.  This would allow a user to be able to sort through the information much easier.  Is there currently a way to save a settings file in a spreadsheet or similar format; any type of workaround to get the settings file information into a spreadsheet?

Hi everyone,

Is there someone that could help for my work for a client

Hi everyone,

I would like to attract your attention to the problem that i have encountered as described below:

I have been working to convert input from Wema type fuel level sensor (resistance output) converting it into VIN for MD3 input using volt divider. After calibrating actual device I have defined 2 square curves (0-50% and 50%-100%) to get better accuracy. IQAN program attached (.FuelLevel.idax). When I opened this program in IQANDesign 5.08 I have got the following result when simulating on computer which you can see it is wrong result as and simulation would give only -039 or 1.04.

If I load program in this stage into machine it would behave incorrect as in simulation

Then after playing with it I have discovered that closing simulation and then editing 'Default function' for M_Fil (Math channel) for example changing "-0.39" into "-0.391" and then back into "-0.39" and then restarting simulation it would come back to normal (what i would expect) as you can see on the following picture

When I have loaded the program into machine in this stage it has been working ok since then.

Your comments will be much appreciated

It might be interesting to think about a way to structure the software so you can easily generate corresponding flowcharts and or state machine diagrams based on it. This would save a lot of time when communicating with people that are not familiar with the IQAN software architecture and makes documenting the software a lot easier than manually creating the flow charts ourselves. Again this is just something that came to mind and would love to know what people think about this kind of feature and if this is even plausible.

Thank you in advance!

Hello.  I am a new IQAN user and I am having difficulties.  I found at power up that I had a flashing IDTag error (it is not obvious in the sales literature that one was required) plus I cound not establish a connection via CANbus.  I am using a Kvaser Leaf Lite as my interface.  I read in a forum on this site that the tag resistance for address ) is 294 ohm.  I plugged in a 278 ohm resistance and the issue remained.  I havefour questions:

1.  What is the tolerance on the address resistance value?    

2.  Does this error prevent establishing a connection with a PC over the CANbus?

3.  Does the interface GND need to be connected to the IQAN-MC41 GND?

4.  Does the CAN-A and CAN-B configuration setting need to be set to terminated?  My controller is operating as a stand alone device.

Any help I could get on this would be appreciated.  Thanks.
