Dual Axis bubble level

Zach Dockter 10 years ago in IQANdesign • updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 10 years ago • 1
Could a grid field be created for the display modules to dynamically move an image along an X-Y grid dependent on two variables?
i.e. What I am trying to create is a virtual dual axis bubble level similar to the one on most smart phones.

Use serial number

Dingoma 10 years ago in IQANdesign • updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 7 years ago • 9
Hello.
Is it possible to use the serial number of modules to make calculations?
I want to detect if user changes parts, or has a specific serial number.

Image 80

Highlighted problems solved


24563 MD4: Backlight flickers in supply voltage range 12-14V
The MD4 had a function that automatically reduced backlight for supply voltages <14 V. This reduction caused the display to flicker for small supply voltage variations in the range 12-14 V, and has now been removed. 
Note: There will still be a decreased backlight intensity below 12.5 V due to hardware restrictions.

Zach 9 years ago in IQANdesign • updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 9 years ago • 1

Has anyone else had an issue with spn warnings getting stuck on?

They update when I pass another spn message on the can, but some don't seem to turn off until instructed of another change.


Is there a way to trigger my spns to be checked and updated?

DMAC & MAC - Store Value - New property request

Nick Pridham 10 years ago in IQANdesign • updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 8 years ago • 4
It would be nice to have a store value property for these channel types. This is very useful when calculating totalising statistics. For example: the total angle movement of a boom can be calculated with a MAC running the derivative calculations and a memorising channel storing the value on a timer loop. 

A store value property in the DMAC/MAC makes it a bit neater.

Backlight auto-adjuste

Florent Mirieu de Labarre 9 years ago in IQANdesign • updated 9 years ago • 3

Hi


My customer use product during the day and the night. The problem is in night the backlight is too hight. It is possible to change with the menu, or with a button to switch in night mode. it's work but is not auto-adjuste.


Three possibility to do an auto-adjust-backlight

1 - add a light sensor (light Garmin GPS)

2 - add a function who calculate the sunrise and sunset with latidude/longitude in input. I have made this fonction it is works great. But if the system loose date or the customer change place (it is possible with our product), it doesn't works. Like that there a number 3

3 - add a GPS module on your module (now a GPS module is very low cost (5$)), like that always on time, you have the real speed, and you can use the auto-adjuste-module


Regards

New stile for adjust menu

Dingoma 9 years ago in IQANdesign • updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 9 years ago • 2

Hello.

Sometimes, when our customers try to tune the crane, they get confused with plus/minus "menu"

Usually, at least for a crane, plus and minus adjusts aren't similars in values (start, stop, min and max) for one movement, I think it would be an improvement to allow customer to modify values in different screens for plus and minus movement. It would be a good improvement to include a photo of the movement that they are adjusting.

MDL TO MD4 CONVERSION

mgoutier 9 years ago • updated by Ulrik Zakariasson (Software development) 9 years ago • 5

I new here, and new to the software platform, so hello to everyone. Although I am new to the IQAN platform I am very familiar with PLC programming and basic logic.


I am tasked with converting a bunch of MDL programs to MD4's (as we aren't going to be able to get any MDL's soon) and as I dive into this it seems like there should be a much easier way to do it.


Can someone do a quick write up of the most efficient way to complete this task?
