IQANdesign 5.08 released

New versions of IQANdesign 5 and IQANsimulate 5 are released, with retro-fixes from 6.x. 

Recommended for MD4

For IQAN-MD4, this version solves a problem where the MD4: Flash memory error correction could fail. Although the probability of failure is low, updating is recommended to update to avoid potential problems. The same solution that is previously released in IQANdesign 6.04. 

See release notes for IQANdesign 5.08 and for IQANsimulate 5.08

No new versions of IQANrun or IQANscript were needed for this release. 

One of our customer using an Android 11 (released 8th sept.2020) smartphone can not install the IQANgo app accessible from the Google playstore of the iqan.se website. Could the Android version be the reason for this failure to install the app ? Many thanks.

Hi,

We want to connect to the modem of an our crane, but it seems "File transfer" in the state section and we cannot connect. What would be the reason?

Thanks in advance...

I purchased 5 Trucks that have Iqan - MD3 units. All the trucks are the same but one truck had a short and and the MD3 is shot. I purchased a used unit on ebay and it allows the truck to run but nothing works in the truck. Can I copy the software from another unit and delete the sofware on the used MD3 I Purchased?

Thank You!

It appears in the manuals that the MC41 can accept a Frequency/Direction sensor type and is allowed in the System Layout area of IQAN Design, but you get an "Error: Property not Available" in the application portion.  I have tried using an event counter with the high speed DINs (C1 Pins 11 and 12).  I have cycle time of the MC41 set to 1ms.  The results are inconsistent at best with error in pulse count up to 25% at approximately 200Hz.  I tried using   PCNT input with the high speed input for direction.  It improved, but is still not accurate as the pulse count seems to double and miss counts on direction change.  Is this a software bug? Is there another work-around?

If you add an external function and try to drag an adjust item from it to an adjust group, it will not allow it. If you open the list of adjust items and find the parameter and drag it that way, it will allow it. This seems to have broke on the latest update. 

I.m trying to install IQAN Run on a new PC. IQAN Design instll works fine. But when entering License key I got followin message "License is not valid for this program. The Entered license is an IQAN Design license"

Where do I get a valid IQAN Run license?

In order for me to keep a clear overview of all the functional groups and systems in my system layout, I could use a feature that allows me to filter or at least put all the names in alphabetical order like words starting with an A up to Z and numbers starting with a 0 up to whatever number possible. 

This is just an idea I would like to see coming in future updates.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,

I need to send a PDO1 off SDO to a Variable frequency drive. When I enter the necessary data portion of the frame, IQAN Design (5.04.8.5179) gives me an error saying I'm out of the maximum range. I'm confused by this. Currently,

I won't be able to correctly send the SDO. Any thoughts?
