IQAN-MD5 - release of 5" and 8"
We have now released the first two variants in the IQAN-MD5 family, the 5" and the 8" variants.
You'll need IQANdesign 7.02 to use these, which also is available.
Product information are available on parker.com.
The IQAN-MD4 platform will continue to be supported alongside the newly introduced IQAN-MD5 platform. Our standard End-Of-Life (EOL) process for products involves a notification given three years prior to the Last Time Buy (LTB) opportunity, followed by a period that allows for last-time purchases, with the last delivery occurring approximately two years after the LTB date.
In the long term the IQAN-MD5 platform will live longer and is a better choice for you when planning your platform moving forward.
MD5 Electrical Diagram
The electrical diagrams for the MD5 that are published on the Parker website have an error, the +batt and -batt are reversed on those drawings. The MD5 instruction book is correct.
Thanks for noticing.
The update that we made hadn't got uploaded.
I'll see that it'll be updated instantly.

Programming an MD5
I received my first MD5 and am trying to flash it on the bench. There is no Ethernet hookup so I'm using a G12. It is taking forever and I'm only getting a couple percent done before the MD5 goes blank (after around 10 mins) and seemingly stops. My questions are, what is the fastest connection to flash a system with the MD5? If its CANbus, what is the hardware/ how do I wire it into the system. If its Ethernet, how do I wire that into the system. I have also tried to create a program utilizing an MD4 and MD5 to utilize the Ethernet and the program wont recognize the MD5. I heard the G12s are fast but there is no way it will work as the main programming connection considering the experience Ive had with them.
MD5 Power capability
How current can I draw out pins 56 (bat+) and 29 (bat-) if I am using pins 42(bat+) and 43 (bat-) for the input power. I need to power 2 each IQAN sv120 cameras.
