MD4-7 Dialog Box : ReActivation and Scroll ?
Hi there, I am wondering if anyone can help me with a feature I really think is important:
I use 2x MD4-7 displays (and 3x MC43's) in a Multi Masters system
What I want is to recall the Dialogue Box or Conditional Message for all active "System", "Engine DM01" or "CMSG" generated errors/faults/messages etc, with a single button - any active fault message that would appear within the dialogue box on the screen.
Then I want to scroll through these messages without accepting them/cancelling them with the cross on the (RHS Top) box with a forward, backwards button etc, before eventually cancelling the on screen dialogue box all together (with or without accepting the faults). This I feel is a really important feature. People want to know all the active faults/message of the entire system, but without them disappearing altogether from the screen before the information is understood.
There is a timer to re activate the dialogue box, but this is really not a good option. I need a recall on demand, not a timer.
I see this on other engine displays (Murphy etc). So far I cant figure this out, so of anyone knows how to do this it would be great!
Otherwise, this is a really good feature to add to new feature request list please?
Thanks!

Adjust parameter is disabled in MD4 when out of range
So we are running into an issue where we have an integer adjust parameter that had a range of 0-400 and we decided to change the range to 0-60, but if we update systems that have a value set greater than 60 then the adjustment slider in the MD4 is disabled and you cannot set the value, without going through the IQAN go app to force the parameter into the range. Is there a way to either have it set the parameter to either the max value or to the default value during an update? Preferably it would just keep the value and allow you to update using the slider, jumping into the new range. Thanks
Include unit in DBC export
Hi!
I've stumbled upon something that maybe you guys could clarify or just acknowledge:
I exported a Generic Frame(GFIN) with associated Generic Parameters(GPINs) to a DBC-file but the units for the parameters don't get exported. Everything else works just fine!
I selected the GFIN in the Function Group and then clicked "File" -> "Export" -> "Export CAN database..." and saved the file but upon opening it the units for the parameters are nowhere to be seen.
Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?
I am using IQANdesign 6.07.8.7990.
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Christopher Fridstaden
SV Camera Power Cycle
Hello,
I have an SV Camera and an MD4-7 on separate power supplies.
They're communicating over a wireless link.
If I power up the SV Camera before I power up the MD4, it never links up. Always shows 'No Contact' for the camera.
Is there a way to avoid Power Cycling the camera?
I could see a static IP avoiding the need for the DHCP process, but I don't believe you can configure the SV Camera to have a static IP.
Channel values obstructed while in measure mode
Channel values are obstructed by green box while in measure mode. It would make more sense to move green box to far right.
IQANrun send .idsx stripped project file
Now since IQANrun is updated almost with every release of IQANdesign, would it be possible to include firmware so we can send stripped files with IQANrun?
This would make it more efficient to store many versions and also especially when emailing projects to a customer since they are often above 25MB.
6.08.22.8040 updated. Why some channels are now yellow?
I just updated IQANdesign to 6.08.22.8040. Why some of the IDC, SMC and DMAC channels are now yellow?
Simulating digital inputs
If I run a simulation using IQANdesign/IQANsimulate 6.08 with all digital inputs used, DIN-A through DIN-T all show OK, while DIN-U through DIN-AR all show False: Disabled. If I do the same thing with IQANdesignIQANsimulate 5.05, then all digital inputs show OK. Can you explain this?
I/O Status & DM1 Messages
Hello,
I am attempting to setup DM1 Out messages in a project utilizing a MC43 and running into a few challenges.
1. How can I propagate the status of a I/O to a Math or IDC channel? I am mapping a I/O to intermediate channels so that a single application can support multiple machine models and hardware layouts. The Math/IDC channel have a Equipment Model configured as a function selector. I want to use that Math/IDC channel then in the DM1 Out container as a Status type so that a FMI can be set based on the status of the actual I/O.
Is there a way do this?
If would be nice if StatusOf(VIN-A:MC43FS[0]) spit out a integer which could be used in the FMI field of a Value type DM1 out.
2. I've noticed that I get a project error if I create a Status DM1 out and a Value DM1 out that use the same SPN number. It would be nice if you could mix these as long as the FMI configured for the Value type did not overlap with the FMIs used in the Status Type. Is there a possible way to have a Status and Value type DM1 out that utilizes the same SPN number?
Thank you,
Gord
Communication error when simulating
I am running IQANdesign 6.08 and Simulator 6.08
I have started the simulation from within IQANdesign. Whenever I navigate to a certain disabled function group I get the following error:
Message data size wrong (was 11, but expected 2 bytes).
After the error, measurement is terminated but the simulation keeps running.
The function group in question is disabled, and has a number of inputs and outputs.
