Suggestion for DM1 entry improvement

Richard Kowalczyk 2 years ago updated 2 years ago 1

Hi everyone,

Recently have been working on the system with MD3 and had to enter DM1/FMI for Scania engine. I have found it very tedious task and thought that it could be improved. Most of the engine manufacturers publish DM1/FMI in pdf format that can be easily converted to Excel spread sheet for easy configuration and hope simple add on to IQAN Design for automatic DM1/FMI entry process from the spread sheet would eliminate/improve this job.

FYI Dana Spice publishes their DM1/FMI list already in spread sheet for their transmission controllers.

Any hope or any comments?

Kind regards,

Multiple language properties and Show Value and unit in Value controls

Johan Palm 2 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 3

Hi,


The application has two languages; English (UK) and English (US).

A math channel's unit is set up with multiple language properties; m (meter) for English (UK) and inch for English (US).

A value control is used to display the value and unit of the math channel.


The problem is that the displayed unit does not immediately change from m to inch when I change the language from English (UK) to English (US); I need to restart the simulation for the change to take effect.


Is this intentional?

English (UK):

English (US) without restart:

English (US) after restart:

The math channel:

Tested with IQANdesign and IQANsimulate 6.08.

Best way to capture live screen actions on MD4-7

toby 2 years ago in IQANsimulate 0

Just wondering what the best way to capture a demonstration of the functionality of the display is. Is there any way to mirror an MD4-7 display from a live system onto a computer or video stream or is my only option to set up a simulation? The main issue I have with the simulation option is that I have a multi-master system, which communicates over J1939 and there is a lot of data to link between the two to make a functional simulation, plus many of our functions would be difficult to demonstrate in a simulation since there are complicated relationships between multiple I/Os. Thanks

Display channel value in interactive message like in conditional message

Jacob Meng 2 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 1

I have noticed that a conditional message can display another channel value. This is handy especially when using the message to notify the user that a parameter is out of spec. I am using an interactive channel for the same purpose but it does not appear to be able to display a value from another channel in the same way. Is there a way to do this?

IQAN instead of J1939 or CANopen (radio remote)

NEricson 2 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 8 months ago 5

I have seen a few radio receiver models that have IQAN as an option for control (instead of J1939 or CANopen). Has anyone done this? How is this implemented? Explain to me whats going on.

No touch screen controls

Andy Pauly 2 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 2

I am programming currently an application where a touch screen is not accepted at all. I use a external J1939 Button and Encoder control. Page changes and changing values in the screen etc. are working now perfectly, this part of HMI I can Programm. But some HMI Dialoges are created automatically be the firmware of the IQAN system e.g.: short circuit on pin...... 

How can I like a my external signal to your firmware dialog???

Thanks

Controlling a VFD that accepts 4-20ma input

Barnhart Crane 2 years ago updated 2 years ago 2

I want to use an IQAN MC43 to control a VFD. The VFD can be controlled by either a 4-20ma signal or a 1-10v input.

What would be the best way to do this using an MC43? Doesn't seem to be too many CANOpen to 4-20 ma devices that I can find.

GSGR GS16275-4xx Camera Display Page Issue

mdonaldson 2 years ago updated 6 months ago 7

We are having a issue that I believe is a recent issue. We've built 1000's of units and we've only experienced it recently(no service reports either). Also on this same unit we started using IQAN 6.08 but our production units are on 5.08 (have XC10's).

Anyway on this unit we have 3 different display pages, each one for a different layout of cameras(see images). If we switch the screen a couple times we can get it to start flashing as if its trying to display the other page then back(see vid - . IMG_0584.mov). If we switch to other screens and back its fine again.


We are going to do a measure group of the 'active display page' to see if its something we did. We don't have a production unit(IQAN 5) with a 4 camera system as I want to check out one of those too.

Multi packet J1939 message changing priority

Jag 2 years ago in IQANdesign updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 2 years ago 9

Hi,

I am sending a multi packet J1939 message as shown below with a priority 6. I am using MC41 as master. For some reason TP packets are braodbcast the priority is being changed to 7 from 6. See snapshot of the data log showing identifier 1CECFF7F instead 18ECFF7F. As a result my request from MC41 is being ignored by the Vehicle controller.

I have manually broadcast 18ECFF7F and 18EBFF7F using Busmaster and it works OK. however when I manually transmit

1CECFF7Fand 1CEBFF7F vehicle controller ignores TP packet.

I am not sure if this is a bug or I am doing something wrong appreciate if you can point me in the right direction.
