Re-Lock an adjust group , without having to power cycle

David Holcomb 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Mitch Houle 8 years ago 2

We have several customers who dislike having to cycle power on the display after a technician has unlocked an adjustment group with a PIN code. They have critical operations that do not allow for resetting the master, but want to re-lock an adjustment group, be it by clicking a button or else on a timeout.

Answer

Hello David.


If you use a Pin code channel (PCC) as the pin code for entering the adjust group you can set the condition for resetting the lock yourself.

You could for example use the SIC 'Menu system open' as resetting condition (when it is not true).

Then you would need to enter the PIN code every time you close the menu

Custom gauges Scale

Mark Walser 8 years ago updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 years ago 4

It would be nice if you could scale a custom image in the display page. If a custom PNG or SVG is created you must resize it out side of the IQAN and bring it back in.

Answer

You can right cliick on the hardware, and then select the temperatue. it will then have this block in the main functionality.

Is it possible to divide/split a text somehow?

Peter Nyman 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 1

Is it possible to divide/split a text somehow? I use the Project/properties/version as 1.0.0 (Major.Minor.Fix) and would like to be able to split this into three separate objects containing major, minor and fix as separate numbers. A function for dividing the parameter based on a limiter or a function for retrieving for exsample the first two characters from the left or the 3 characters from position 3.

Access adjust screen items with logic channel

Ethan Zeman 8 years ago updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 years ago 2

I would like to access the adjust screen to adjust a text parameter similar to how the Action of a VIN channel can be used from a display screen. However, I do not want to us a VIN. Instead I would like to use internal logic (i.e IF X= True AND Y = True goto Adjust Paramter Z). Is this possible? Thanks

Stoted data communication through CAN bus for printing.

Supratim 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 5

We know the stored data can be downloaded through IQAN run and printout can be taken. But one application customer is asking for the printout of the stored data in the machine itself, without connecting any Laptop. Small thermal printer can be used. As MD4 do not have any serial port, so we want to use another CAN controller which can connect serial printer for printing. Now our concern is to send the Stored data through CAN bus to other CAN controller. Please explain how to do that.

Activating internal digital when display page changes.

Keith Boone 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 years ago 2

Is there a way to active an internal digital channel when a current display page changes? I have an application where a function needs to be turned off anytime that the operator leaves the respective operation screen. There are multiple operation screens with this function.

Answer

we've done this before using a system information channel, set to 'active display page' this will give a numerical value based on what page is up, and you can then run it into logic.

Display control channel - DCC in MD4?

Keith Boone 8 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago 1

I have an application where the display backlight needs to be selected from a display page designed for the vehicle operator. The customer needs two selections only, which are DAY and NIGHT, for their operators.


The actual % levels for Day and Night will be set in the adjust groups which will be password protected with access only to their technicians.


In the IQAN Design manual, it references the “Display control channel – DCC” to control the display backlight.I can find this channel in the MD3, but it apparently does not exist in the MD4.


Is there a way to do this in the MD4-7?


Thanks
