Shutdown Sequence when uploading code

Mats 3 weeks ago in IQANdesign • updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 weeks ago • 1

Our machine needs to go through a few steps in order to shutdown properly. With this, our machine throws errors when we try to upload IQAN code as certain components do not get any warning they are about to be shut down.

I was wondering if there was a way to get a signal to begin the shutdown sequence when uploading code such that these components can go through their normal motions before power is cut off.

You could use a channel on the Connectivity property "Allow stop"

This channel could for example be something you set from a menu on the display or with IQANrun, and you could use this channel to also trigger a message to other components in the system.
