XC10 POWER CONTROL input consumption

Adolfo 5 years ago in Expansion modules / XC10 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 3

Can I know the XC10 POWER CONTROL input consumption or input resistance?

I cannot find this data in the iqan-xc10_uk_instructionbook 2016...

Thanks in advance and best regards.

xc43 referance voltage

Ed Schippers 5 years ago in Expansion modules / XC4x updated by Cristian Ramirez 2 years ago 5

On the XC4x serie there are multiple Vref+ and Vref- and on both C1 and C2 

Are these interaly connected in the module? 

Or are they seperate from eachother and serve only dedicated Vin's?

Best Regards Ed

PWM OUT HS to control proportional valve "D1FBE01HC0NJJ3"

Hassan 5 years ago in Expansion modules / XC4x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 2

I'm using the expansion module XC43 to control valves, usually, I use Cout to control proportional valves but I run out of current output pins " I have 13 valves" I'm wondering if I can use PWM OUT HS to control D1FBE01HC0NJJ3 " Proportional directional valves in general " also L90LS, P70? Because it seems for me that PWM is only to control pulsar valves that have some frequency working value.

External Mounted Modules

BLC 5 years ago in Expansion modules updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 years ago 1

I'm being asked to mount modules external to the main enclosure, XC41's to be exact. So there will be an enclosure to mount the MD4 to but everything else will be mounting on the rock crushing machine. The power and ground for the modules will come from within the main panel and be fuse protected. The issue I'm having is trying to solve the ground and power that is supplied to the DIN's and DOUT's. Is there a way to cleanly create a ground line and power line to run along the machine and tie into for each necessary I/O? I was thinking of a isolated buss bar, or perhaps a two to one butt splice. Any ideas will help.

Expansion Module CANBus

Greg R 5 years ago in Expansion modules / XC4x 0

Our usual setup is an MD4 with an XC4X expansion module. But we end up using an MC4X because we need the CANBus available on the master module. It would be nice if the expansion module provided access to additional CANBus the same way it provides access to its IO.

What are the symptoms of a XS2/XA2 failure?

Forrest 5 years ago in Expansion modules updated by Lars Bolduc 5 years ago 1

What sort of symptoms might I expect with an expansion module failure?

Will D-outs become intermittent? 

would anything else become sporadic?

Are the modules smart enough to realize something is wrong?

XA2 no connect four red LED blinks

Anthony Sandoval 5 years ago in Expansion modules updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 2

I have an MD3 running a small program and an XA2 expansion module.   When connecting only power , GND , Can-H, Can-L and ID tag #3 to the expansion module I get a four red LED blink with no Orange/ Yellow.


No connection message on the MD3.    


The ID code in Iqan Deisgn is the same as ID tag. 

Answer

Hi Anthony,


I am glad it was just a case mistaken identity and the XA2 module was in fact an XT2 module !

XC-23 minimum input voltage

Guillaume Fournier 6 years ago in Expansion modules / XC2x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 1

Hello,

I have an H-Bridge that drives a DC brushed motor on 12V. I need to determine the PWM ratio being supplied to this motor by the H-Bridge. There is no other signal that could get me this information so I am contemplating hooking both sides of this motor to PWM inputs on the XC-23. Before doing such a thing, I looked at the signal using an oscilloscope. Basically, the signal is 0-12V most of the time but dips below 0V when the ON time finishes. The lowest voltage read with the scope is -11V for a short period of time.

There are no Absolute Requirements for negative voltages on inputs in the datasheet of the XC-23. What is the absolute minimum voltage that can be applied to a PWM input of the XC-23 without damaging it ?

Short Circuit Protection on XA2 DOUTs?

Ethan Zeman 6 years ago in Expansion modules / XA2, XS2 updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 5 years ago 3

Pardon me if this information is already readily available but am having trouble finding it.

If the wiring for an XA2 DOUT is shorted to battery is there an internal protection strategy in the module that will protect the XA2 from being damage?

XS2 Dout to +bat?

Forrest 6 years ago in Expansion modules / XA2, XS2 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 5 years ago 4

I'd like to have IQAN control be paralleled with switch control. This specific application will be a drop axle. I want the IQAN to drop the axle in certain situations, and have a switch that will drop it at any time, even if the control system is powered down,

I believe I have to protect the module from back-feeding, correct? Will just diode protection be enough or do I need to have the Dout controlling a relay that would toggle the input between the switch and a +bat source?
