trouble communicating with PACCAR MX11 J1939
I am having trouble communicating with a Peterbilt that has a PACCAR/DAF MX11 engine. I am using 4.07 software.
Is there any chance my communication problems might be on the IQAN side?

Machine ID from clone
Is there a way to extract the Machine ID from a clone if the filename has been overwritten?

multi master comms
Just for my curiosity.
When I am setting up the gauges and what nots for the display. I notice that for the display on the MD4 I can see and display all of the sensors on any of the masters without doing a APPOUT/IN or JFIN. This tells me that those values are always being transmitted between the masters. But, if I want to use the same data values into an Application logic circuit on another master then I have to do a APPOUT/IN or JFIN. If all this data is circulating on the master or diagnostic bus anyway, why do we have to transit it again for use in the application logic? I'm building a multi master system with one md4 and two mc43.

CAN Bus I/O distribution block.
Any plans on developing CAN bus I/O distribution blocks rated for outside use with either M12 or Deutsch connectors?

Save image from Simulate as PNG
Is there a way to save an image of display from Simulation as an PNG or SVG. We would like to use them in our user manual and would allow for a professional looking image.

APP IN / APP OUT Packaging: Is there a means to package signals into and unpack out of the APP IN/APP OUT
Can I pack multiple signals / parameters into the APP OUT parameter so as to send more infomration in one message? Then unpack it on the other side. For example, if I have a lot f digital signals I want to share arround multiple MC43 modules, sending only one APP OUT is far more sensible than making multiple APP OUT's ? Kind of like a J1939 PGN with SPNs inside.

Add to preference menu
In the main menu is the Preferences tab, can I add functions there for example a different display mode option.
Like choose another display mode between classic and new.

MD4 multiple J1939 SA addresses
Is it possible for one MD4 to have multiple J1939 SA addresses? For example one SA (SA=0 or 1) to communicate to another MD4( SA=39) and another SA (SA=49) to communicate to engine and transmission?

Hi Jacob, you can only set a master module to have one source address, but you can set J1939 output channels to use a different source address for sending the message. As an example, some engines use a specific source address that the TSC1 message must be sent from. In the TSC1 channel you can specify the sending source address.

CAN frame update indicator
At a given cycle time, is it possible to determine if a J1939 CAN frame has just been received? I am aware CAN frame blocks return a boolean indicating if their frame is new or not. However I believe this only works if the CAN frame has an enabled time out. Is it possible not to have a time out and still be able to determine if a CAN frame is new or not?
My goal is to not implement a time out, yet still be able to distinguish a CAN frame that has not been updated for a while from a CAN frame that is continuously being updated with identical values.
Thanks,

Updating a firmware without rebooting
Hello,
I am working with a MC43, that controls a relay (a DOUT LS) that maintains the 24V power supply to the MC43 (enabled by a timer relay before that).
If the MC43 shuts down, it can't be turned back on, without re-toggling (manually) the timer relay. This behavior is perfectly fine except for firmware updates. I can send a IQAN project remotely, but when the firmware update is finished the MC43 systematically reboots, then looses its 24V. Is there a configuration that prevent this behavior?
Thanks.
