So in this scenario we have system A and system B, they are identical apart from component X which comes in variants I and II, I want therefore 1 software with a parameter I can set to say whether X is I or II. Now I and II use the same messages for some things but different messages for others, when using variant I then sending the messages used by II might be a problem, and vice versa so I really want to be able to switch whole messages on or off depending on the variant - perhaps to set the transmission method to on trigger and not trigger it and to switch the method for the ones I want to continuous with the right rate. I cant see how this is achieved in 'code', is it even possible?

Making use of J1939 > COMPID enabled and J1939 > SOFT enabled on the MC43 with IQAN 6.08.24.8136 . Have encountered an issue where the Transport Protocol Data Transfer (PGN 60160) is occurring at too fast of a rate.

It was observed that the data packets for the COMP ID and SOFT ID messages is being transmitted at a rate of ~540us. The J1939-21 standard indicates a minimum of 50ms between packets.

This fast rate is causing issues with the receiving device, in particular handling the SOFTID as in this case it is 11 packets. The COMPID (5 packets) is being handled for the most part.

Is there a way that the Transport protocol packet rate can be set, or is this truly an issue in the firmware?

Hello,

I am having issues with having a font appear properly.

When I use the Orbitron font it doesn't render properly.

The font is from the Parker Lift MD4-7 HighTech theme.  

What is strange to me, is that when I open the example file,Parker Lift MD4-7 HighTech theme,  the font renders properly, but when I add that font to a new project it does not render properly.

I have downloaded and installed the font from Google Fonts.

Any insight on why this could be happening is appreciated.

I'm using version Design 6.08.32.8219 and Simulate 6.08.22.6333

I'm getting this error when downloading to MD5:

Trying to download software using NI 8473 but seems to error before even establishing connection with the display. I noticed the MD5 does not have built in resistor and I have not installed one as yet, could this affect the download from PC?

How can I view settings for my machines without logging into them. I have the setting files *.irsx

I want to be able to use 'constants' in my IQAN read from a file, for example perhaps using the same control system across multiple vehicles but having some vehicles with a lost maximum speed. One way I would use in other systems is a vehicle configuration file to rad the values from. 

I saw the 'variant option selector' which sounded like it might be part way there but it complains it wants n option group and I have no idea how that works never mind if it is the right thing to use

I have been receiving reports of our service guys having trouble with connecting to our machines via IQANgo. We have seen this message on 3 different phones and 2 different machines. One had a fresh download of the program, another deleted the app and reinstalled it after receiving the error, and the third had the second one try after they received the message.

The first was a customer and the problem cleared after he returned a subsequent day. The second and third are our service guys and have had no issues connecting to other machines. Any ideas on how to fix or avoid this?

How can I view the settings in IQANrun 7 from a settings file or clone file? I would like to print these, but I can't get them onto the screen at all. Thanks in advance for the explanation.

How do I capture messages in IQANdesign 6 (I can update if required for feature) with the same PGN? I have multiple pumps on one CAN network that feature J1939 style addressing, and each of these pumps has an identical status message in the .dbc file with the exception of their source address - the messages are PDU1 J1939 PGN. I have unsuccessfully tried importing these messages using CAN Generic Frame, but it seems IQANDesign overrides this and reads it as a J1939 Frame In and looks at PGN instead of extended CANID. How can I collect the information for each of these pumps separately in IQANDesign?

For reference, CAN IDs in HEX: 

Pump 1 address = 0x18FF2301x

Pump 2 address = 0x18FF2302x

where PGN is FF23 on both pumps.
