Would be great to be able to include links in the script.

For example:

<a href="mailto:email@example.com">Send Email</a>

or

<a href="C:\IQAN\foldername">Open folder</a>

To help the user find clones or reports and send emails.

Simplified IQANdesign renewal

The IQAN store “IQANdesign update subscription” is being replaced with a new option, IQANdesign license renewal.

Renewal gives the option to use your latest license number to purchase a new IQANdesign license (80% off), valid for updating to all IQANdesign versions released within 12 more months. 

This is the same price as the previous subscription, but without the need to sign up beforehand and having emails from the store with reminders.

Manage license in IQANdesign

Two new release versions of IQANdesign are now available:

IQANdesign 6.08.25 and IQANdesign 5.08.2

In these versions, there is a new menu item:

Help > Manage License

Manage License lets you view the full license number and enter a new one. If the current license is too old to install the latest updates, a link to IQAN store for IQANdesign license renewal is shown:

Hello,

Inside the IQAN software there`s the check for updates option in the HELP menu. Our company has installed a new firewall and now updates are blocked. Can You tell me the serveraddress / port I have to whitelist to get these updates going again?

Thanks in advance,

André van der Heide

I have a couple of small requests to make usage easier.

When doubleclicking for example in a name field with two words it selects the 1 word you clicked on.

In other Windows programs or in this forum for example, triple clicking selects all words in the field/row, that would be handy to have in IQANdesign aswell. Especially when creating new channels with long default names like "Dual Direction Math" or when creating many states/text parameters for engine fault codes.

When clicking on a state function the last selected tab/state is shown, the name does not have a box around it so you can edit the state function name.

If you click on a state name then it gets a small gray box around it and you can edit it's name.

If you create a new state the name does have the small gray box around it, but if you type in a new name you will edit the name of the entire state function, this is opposite to the behaviour above.

We have been seeing issues when sending projects to IQAN modules when a mix of 250kbps and 500kbps baud rates exist on the same module.  

In our case, we have a multi-master system with (2) MC43 modules.  The diagnostic bus on CAN-A for both at 250kbps.  The modules are addressed as 0 and 1.  The 0 address module has all CAN bus speeds set at 250kbps.  The 1 address module has all CAN bus speeds at 250kbps, with the exception of CAN-C as 500kbps.  CAN-C is connected to a truck engine bus that continues to communicate during the flashing process (data is always present on CAN-C whenever the MC43 is powered on).  

When we attempt to send a project, the flashing process stalls once the module with a 500kbps bus is updated.  This happens very regularly, and happens with IQAN Design 4, IQAN Run 4, IQAN Design 6, and IQAN Run 6.  The process seems to get to the point where the 500kbps module is updated, but can't proceed to any additional modules in the system or finalize the process.  This is very troublesome when remote flashing system updates via IQAN Go.  Disconnecting the 500kbps bus prior to flashing does allow us to avoid this issue, but this step is often forgotten about by our service techs.

Is there a reason that the system stalls/errors out when flashing master modules with a mix of baud rates? 

Feature request for "Auto-Sort Channels" In Application Logic

Feature request to add an "auto-sort" or "auto-stack" option with selected channels in Application Logic view. A simple action, maybe in the right-click options. Something that will stack the selected channels one on top of the other. Instead of having to click and drag each channel (in the case there are many channels).

Just a thought :)

Hi, I have a project built around a MC43. I would like to copy this existing project and replace the MC43 with a MC43-FS. How this can be done within IQANdesign?

Support for IQAN-G12

The IQAN-G12 is a new version of the G11 CAN-Bluetooth adapter, with increased speed, range and enabling enhanced security.

IQAN-G12, next version of CAN to Bluetooth gateway

Pairing with G12

When connecting to an IQAN-G12 for the first time, pairing is required.

In systems created with IQANdesign 6.08 or newer, pairing enable and passkey is controlled by IQANdesign properties. See IQANdesign 6.08 news post. If the IQAN-G12 is used in a system with 6.07, the passkey is all zeroes but pairing is only temporary.

GUI improvements

Send to machine, Send button is moved to the line with the selected file.

Send to machine confirmation dialog now show firmware versions of both file and the system that is about to be updated.

Android specific updates

Increased minimum version

Minimum android version is increased to Android 9. Users of Android 7 and 8 can continue to use IQANgo 6.07.

Export file and Import file in Files manager task menu

With Import file, one or more files in a folder or another app such as Dropbox, OneDrive or Google Drive can be selected.

With Export file, the selected file can exported to the Downloads folder on the device.

iOS specific updates

Shortcut to the Files app added to the Files manager.

Available on Google Play and Apple App Store

This would allow for custom decoders and increase usability for people that are not as familiar with hex for diagnostics

I would like to see a tool or some way to get the logs from the controller without additional hardware or licenses.

Just thinking that we should be able to get the needed logs out from the system without additional costs and harware.

We have an external reporting application that needs log files as an input.

This Reporting application is used by end customer and it makes no sense to purchase IQANRun license to every customer that needs this reporting.

I think the easies way would be make an program that is just script engine and just performs the scripts without the IQANRun.

This way we can invoke that script engine from our software to do needed actions. I know this can be done starting IQANRun silently, but it still needs that license.

Or even if we can get the API for integrating needed feature to our reporting program that would be the best solution I think.
