Iqandesign 4.0 multiple TSC channels
I have to send throttle commands on PGN 0 for speed and PGN 00001 for torque limitation.
This is possible in Iqandesign 3.19. In Iqandesign 4.0 I get an error message "Multiple TSC1" and the program won't run.

Sequential execution/validation
I need to find the best method to do a sequencial communication.
Actually I need to send canopen packet in order and I need to respect this order.
As I can have multiple item, required or not (enabled/disabled) to send.
Case 1:
For example, with a scanreco remote control LCD screen I need to :
- Clear screen
- Activate FrameID of each component required to be visible on the screen
- after this I'll need to update each FrameID value with a 250ms timing.
Actually I was able to do this for testing purpose, but the program is a bit messy.
Case 2:
Sequential safety validation. Each step need to be validated in a specific sequence and in case of condition lost, I'll need to start again from the first step.
- Press "bypass" mode status on the screen
- Open the fence (Signal OFF)
- Close the fence (Signal ON
- Open the door (Signal OFF)
- Close the door (Signal ON)
- Activating bypass activated signal
In case of lost of the fence or door signal, I need to restart from the beginning this sequence.
I have in mind to use IDC + counter to do this, but I'm not sure to be in the right way.
I'm looking if you have example or recommendation to do this ?
I'm sure you notice that it's my very first project!
Best regards,
David

When is IQAN Design 3.15 due to be released?

Working raport
Machine driver have to measure working hours and other working details into simple raport and then send it to customer or employer with email.
I have made a save button what saves necessary details into special log file. But the problem is to get this log file easily out from MD3.
I know that, it can be done with IQAN RUN, but its still too complicate to machine driver to learn how to use IQAN RUN then go to right function, and copy paste right values to his/her email.
Is it possible to save this working log file into special directory (like MD3/raports) and then plug the MD3 into laptop, go to right folder and send this raport file to customer?
Or any other more easier way to do this?

Multitouch Functionality on MD4
Incidentally it would be nice on Virtual digital inputs to be able to reset the toggle by means of an external channel - so that the button stays depressed (colour changed) until it is reset either by touching it again or by the channel selected.

Bug: Conflicting windows
I would also suggest that this lookahead error pop-up is very annoying. If I mistype one letter (which happens often) it shows up I have to switch to the mouse to clear. Why not wait until I press the tab button to give me a chance to correct my typing mistake?

Can you pick up open load and overload only errors on MC3 outputs?
The only way of picking up an error message appears to be in the system information function, but this seems to be a blanket error flag that could be a fault with any part of the control system (including v ref, batt voltage etc). We would ideally only like to pickup on an open load or overload.
I see there is module status, but that only shows 9 different items. Is there an option to pick up on only the open load and overload error of an output on an MC3?

Not saving Function group input when Public variable are used
I have set-up some variable as public in a function group. In another function group I am using one of those public variable as input to a function group
When the program run correctly. But if I change the software and or save and close the next time I open the project the assignment disappear and I get an compile error for an undefined input to the function group.

Iqandesign with Windows 10 on Surface Pro 4
Has anyone tried using Iqandesign with a Surface Pro and Windows 10? Do the drivers work for USB (MD3) and ethernet (wireless) for MD4. I travel quite a bit and would like to reduce the weight of my computer/charger.
