State Picker Text Does Not Update

Chris Litwin 6 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 3

I have a project where I am using State Pickers to select joystick button functions. The functions that show up in the state picker menu are defined using SMC channels. The SMC channels are defined using adjustable parameters. The problem I am seeing is that if I am on the display page where the state pickers are and I change the adjustable parameters the state picker menus do not update to reflect the new functions from the SMC channels that changed.

Control channel selector menu outside screen

Pierre Fagrell 6 years ago in IQANsimulate updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 3

In most situations the menu for selecting a control channel is aligned outside the screen, making it impossible to select all channels on a regular 1080p monitor.

If I have the simulator at the bottom half of a 4k monitor or fullscreen on a regular monitor it aligns incorrectly.

If I have the simulator fullscreen or aligned to the top of a 4k monitor it works fine.

External Control, slider not selected

Pierre Fagrell 6 years ago in IQANdesign updated 6 years ago 2

I am using external control with a Grayhill Encoder to select between 9 different tabs that each has a slider on them.

How can I make it so the cursor focus moves to the slider and the slider is selected when I click a tab?

Please see attached video:

Youtube video

What happens now:

1. Turn wheel to desired tab

2. Click button and the correct slider is shown

3. Turn wheel four times to hilight slider

4. Click button to select slider

5. Change slider parameter

6. Click button to save value and unselect slider

7. Turn wheel four times back to tab selection

I would like to automate step 3,4,7

QCode Components Improvements with Channel Types

Andy Pauly 6 years ago in IQANdesign 0

IQAN-Component.png

Hello 

I using only Qcode and I find it often hard, with the huge amount of channels names, to find the right one. I must often add the file types to the channel names. This helps a lot. For Example:A Internal Digital Channels will always get a postfix [IDC]. Function Parameter always get [FP]. I use the initials of your manual. But way is this not added automatically to the Component Prefix. (= the blue part)

CM0504 current limit

Greg R 6 years ago updated by Edward Polzin 6 years ago 1

Regarding th CM0504 module. What is the time to trip for the 25A current limit? If a motor is powered and spikes above 25A, will cause the module to fault? And will it recover?

Closed loop velocity control

Jerry Rowe 6 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Ryan Bland 747 2 years ago 3

I am working on a couple of projects where we want to use a PID loop for motor RPM control with encoders for feedback.

I set up the program with the encoders for feedback but when I run the simulation, the valve drive goes to zero when the encoder count matches the commanded speed. Based on this it appears the PID is set up for positioning. Can it be used for closed loop RPM control?

Multi languages channel names

Andy Pauly 6 years ago in IQANdesign 0

Hello

The C-standards of a lot of mobile machines forces the machine-manufacture to have for the operator/driver 24x official EU-languages. Service technician only need to have up to 4x languages. That's the reason that the operation manual must be printed in 24x EU-official-languages and workshop manuals only up to 4x. 

I can set up in Parker IQAN only one multi-language block. Would it be possible to have two multi-languages blocks available: one for the operator, one for the service technician.

Regards

Andy Pauly

Getting clone out of multi master display application

Ed Schippers 6 years ago in IQANrun updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 2

The multi master system i build has 3 MD4 displays.

0ne of the displays , not the head master, had some problems with the screen so needed replacement.

So I took a clone file of the system, using ethernet on the head master. the upload, specially from the other  displays, this took forever. around 2 hours. 

After getting the clone file, I send the file to the new display , disconnected the rest to safe time

This worked only partly, functionality was ok, but a lot of pictures of lamps and buttons were missing.

I send the clone to the complete system. again it took forever and with no better result.

Then downloaded the setting,  opened the clone file in design en uploaded from there, this again took ages.

This worked ok, after sending the settings all was running perfect.

What could have been the problem with the pictures?

And is there any way to speed up the process?
