On one of our mobile control systems we have encountered a situation where the wrong pin reference is shown on the display.

We have added a low-side output to our XC43, but it is not connected yet. The channel we have added is C2:65. Since we have not yet connected this output, it shows in IQAN with a red open-load indictor.

On our MD4-5 display however, the error message indicates C2:64 as the faulty channel. Might this be a refence error?

System:

IQAN 6.02.10.5706

IQAN MD4-5 (touch) master

CAN A: G11

CAN B: HS Exp: XC43

CAN C: Exp: XC21

The built in DM1/DM2 viewer is a great function, but it seems to be really limited. When using an MD4 in portrait mode there isn't enough room to display everything. It would be great if it could text wrap or if the line could be selected to read the whole text. Another option could be only displaying SPN and FM1 then select to bring up the dialog again that contains all the information.

Also, is the DM1 viewer able to show more than 1 message at a time? In simulate it does not?

Hi IQAN Team -

It would be great if the Import DBC feature allowed to import J1939-formatted DBCs. We use this format quite often to have scaled and offset signals. However, the IQAN import feature only supports the import as Generic CAN ! I presume this is just an oversight, and should be an easy fix for the IQAN devs.

We are almost there...

Thanks !

Greetings,

Where can I change G11 properties, so when it is populated on machine list it is listed as a unique "name"

Thank you   

Two new IQANdesign video tutorials:

IQAN-MC4xFS tutorial part 1, redundancy and diagnostics

This tutorial on the Parker IQAN-MC4xFS functional safety controllers show how IQANdesign can be used to build up safety functions, focusing on the concepts of redundancy and diagnostics.

IQAN-MC4xFS tutorial part 2, safety related function groups

This second part of the tutorial about Parker IQAN-MC4xFS functional safety controllers show how IQANdesign is used when organizing safety functions in safety related function groups.

Our current apps IQANrun for tablets and IQANsync for smartphones will be replaced by the newly released IQANgo from end of June 2020. IQANgo will contain the same or more functionality as the apps it replaces and will be easy for the users to learn how the new app works.

New versions of IQANrun and IQANsync will only contain information that the apps have been replaced by IQANgo and that users are recommended to go to the app store or google play store to download the latest version of IQANgo. This is valid for both iOS and Android versions.

Hi,

We have lots of issues, epically where languages are concerned, where text lengths are to long to fit in the text box etc.

Having the ability to scroll the text would be a great asset.

Can function group width boundaries be adjustable to allow better visibility on FGIs and FGOs channels?  

There is a bug while editing state diagrams. When connecting state transitions, then trying to move the head of the transition, it disappears.

Now move the arrow head to State 2. It disappears.  The title and any qcode disappears also.

Now create a transition from 0 to 2

Then the following transitions

Now Ctrl-z to undo and you get a crash.

Transferring firmware resources with the G11 is impractically slow.  Is there any way to view the firmware resources within or required by an IDAX file?  I would like to make revisions that are deliverable by G11 with minimal to no firmware migration.

When I send an IDAX file to the field, I would like to be confident of how long it should  take to perform.  Stopping an upgrade in-process, once it has been initiated, does not seem like a safe method to cancel and recover the previous software.  I am concerned about having a battery go dead during an update or a mechanic being pulled off the job and turning a machine into a brick.

I do not understand what triggers the upgrade/replacement of firmware resources, if it is application-specific, or strictly tied to IQANdesign major/minor versions?
