Is the proemion server down, i keep getting this message:

My software will not display any errors, warnings, or hints when I go to PROJECT CHECK or when I SEND project.  Help, please.

We are trying to control a Danfoss PVEA however we constantly get a overload fault for the output. We are using a PWM out from an XC10. Reading some other posts I have seen "Trying to command a current below the specified 100 mA limit can trigger either open or overload, as an effect of the regulator becoming unstable."

Given the input impedance Am I fighting a losing battle here?

I have a customer who has a GPS with a communication interface "NMEA0183" and I wonder if it was possible to communicate with Parker MD4 screens?

They have already managed to communicate with NMEA2000 (which is based on J1939) for another project, but I think it's quite different. 

Has anyone ever had any experience with NMEA0183?  It is a Marine protocol.

Any plans for bigger MD4 displays, perhaps 17"?

IQAN5.04_Bug.PNG

I recently updated from 5.03 to 5.04. When switching between a larger function groups  to a smaller on it will not allow you to scroll up to the top of the function group.  It locks the window with it scrolled down below the top of the view.

I also noticed channel blocks moving on the work space after editing properties. 

Is there any means of comparing the computational capability of different IQAN hardware?

Basically, how do I know how well or even if an application I want to develop will "fit" on say an MC3 or an MD4 or any other master controllers that all have different hardware limitations and even architectures under the hood?

Is there a means within IQANsimulate to know if a master controller would run out of RAM, or have trouble finishing within the specified cycle time?

Is there any way of providing a high level relative comparison between hardware modules? EG execution time for a standardized function, or a maximum number of channels of a given type? Can you tell me if a MD4 has x time the capability of an MC3 on any axis?

When looking at the processor speed and amount of RAM in the MD4, I'd expect that it'd be fairly hard to overwhelm it. But then again, I have no idea how efficient the internal data structures of IQAN are and how demanding other threads running for the UI might be.

Hi,

I was looking for a vibration sensor to use with MC41.

I have got the Parker's ACC50 accelerometer as this is advertised as vibration sensor among others.

It has an output 0-5V and measures G  (+-1.5G 1-axis). 

Although, I would like to measure frequency and amplitude as well.

Is it possible to use that sensor and convert the data to frequency live or later?

If no, is there any vibration sensor that can output frequency / amplitude?

Thank you.

Hi,

I am new to iqan and I work on a project where I have connected an arduino uno with several sensors on an MC41 / MD3 via generic can bus.

I have managed to transfer correct values for most of the sensors up to number 255 (1byte). i.e temperature, humidity, sound do not need more than 255.

Although, I use an accelerometer /gyroscope where it can go up to +-2000 dps (degrees per second). As I mentioned before I can get correct values up to+-128 dps. 

As a solution I tried to send 2 bytes for the gyro and read 2 bytes in iqan as well. That just changed the scale. i.e -2 dps became -512 dps. Also, I played with less bits in iqan but still the same. I get correct numbers only when using 8bits. 

Is there any way to split the bytes in iqan and read the correct value more than 255?

Any other idea to solve this would be helpful.

Thank you.
