Importing .dbc file dedicated to IQANdesign project
Hello dear IQAN team and users,
I'm working with a few different machines with different IQANdesign project files.
In each project, I'm using a few different CAN databases, which are not overlapping.
When I add or remove .dbc files in the built-in tool, this happens in all projects.
Is there any way to import .dbc files only in the active/opened project?
If that's not possible, could it be an idea to have the option to import CAN database "global" e.g. for all projects (as it is now) or "only for this project"?
I think it would help me keep more structure when I work with multiple projects at once.
How do I transfer iqan to my new computer?
I have a new business laptop, how do I transfer my active iqan from my current laptop to the new one?
Waiting for MC43 when sending to a single module of a multimaster system.
I have an issue with iQAN Run 7 when trying to program a single MC43 for use as a field replacement. When programming the module using a CAN adapter, the firmware and program go into the module, but after the restarting MC4[1], the process seems to get stuck at "Waiting for MC43[1]".
When I look at the MC43 it is now blinking a 3:1 CAN, no contact fault. Am I doing something wrong here?
RTSP stream port
I am trying to connect a third-party camera to the MD4-10 display. The camera uses port 8554, while I understand that the MD4-10 uses port 554. Is it possible to change this setting on the MD4-10 display from 554 to 8554?
Project files transfer faster using iQAN Run?
I'm curious as to why an iQAN design project file would transfer to a MD4 faster using iQAN Run, as opposed to transferring it using design. Can someone from Parker comment on this? Is there something I could do differently in Design to get me similar transfer speeds?
Had I known this a few years ago, I could've collectively saved HOURS of time loading programs with lots of graphic elements into machines. I have one program, that when loaded onto a brand new MD4 using Design, would take over 15 minutes. When using Run, the same program transfers in minutes.
base page not inherited
I am noticing in IQANdesign that when you set page B to use base page A, then set page C to use base page B, the components of page A are not passed to C. Is this intentional? If so, is there a way to make it so that page A comes through to page C?

Continue and resume recording in case of accidental exit
Currently, if you navigate away from the recording page for a group of measurements, a pop-up window prompts you to save or cancel the measurement.
Is it possible to add the ability to resume the measurement if you accidentally click on another menu?
This issue can occur repeatedly, especially when working in the rain on a touchscreen computer.
Read External TSC1 request
I tried to read the TSC1 message from an extrernal source with an J1939 module and an MD5-10. I have some difficulty with it. Should this be possible or can iQan only send this parameter and not read it? It works with a generic module, but I don't like to connect another CAN bus as they cannot use the same CAN bus.
MacBook
Are there any updates about potential IQAN Run compatability with iOS? We have service/sales personnel who would like to use a MacBook with IQAN Run.
