MD4 user inputs

Richard 9 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated 7 years ago 2
I want to use multiple MD4 units on a new project but the problem is in our application the user may be wearing gloves so I am not sure a touch screen is useful. My first idea was to put a CAN open tactile button pad by the side of the MD4 unit but have come up with a blank.
I have tried - Grayhill - Graf-Syteco and powerkey so far who do have keypads but they do not have a size or shape currently in production that fits nicely alongside the MD4 (7").
Does anyone have any ideas?

usb Ethernet adapter for MD4

Zach 9 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Mitch Houle 5 years ago 7
I have dealers and techs all over the world who connect with USB to the machines with the IQAN system.
Could I add a USB port and a USB to Ethernet adapter so they can continue connecting with USB?

Does anyone have a better workaround?

Analog Input - Temperature Sensor

Metalfor 9 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 years ago 3
Hello I'm new here in the forum and I'm already gathering information to take new designs decisions.
The question is if any of you have used a temperature sensor in the analog input of a MD4-7? Was it PTC or NTC? Because in pdf only talks about connect a PTC sensor with a pull-up resistor. Kind regards. Diego.

Actuating 24Vdc coil with MD4

Deanne 2 weeks ago in Master modules / MD4 updated 1 week ago 13

Trying to actuate a 24Vdc coil for a skinner valve with the MD4. I know the MD4 only has LS digital outputs so I am wondering if we would need to use incorporate a voltage divider? I plan on using a relay for that coil as well.

Green line appeared on MD4

Kevin 4 weeks ago in Master modules / MD4 0

We have installed a brand new display in a battery powered rig this week. Its serial number starting with 2305 and production date of 230202.

It has been OK for a week but after the battery in the rig went flat, this line appeared:

Only thing I can think of was the battery was depleted and resulted in the display flashing when the battery got to a level where it was unable to power the module. It performed OK after the battery was recharged but after a few hours the line appeared. 

Anyone had this problem or similar before?

Wrong ID Tag on MD4 Start up

Graham 1 month ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 1 month ago 2

When powering on the MD4 the system message "IQAN-Master Wrong Id Tag!" appears on the screen.  This does not happen every time the machine is powered on but is getting more frequent.  Restarting or shutting off the power to the MD4 does not resolve the problem consistently.  The screen remains black when this issue happens.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

MD4-10 Blue Screen while Ethernet Disconnect

Dragos Popa 6 months ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 weeks ago 5 1 duplicate

Hello,

We are using a MD4-10 (IQAN-6) as main controller for our vehicle. Recently, a bluescreen appeared while we were disconnected from the vehicle via the controller's ethernet port connexion; we were measuring. When it disconnected, I also felt a small static shot from my laptop (I don't know if this is related to the error but it is something I have noticed when it happened). The error code is os_error(0x1000002) with run fault pid 90131. I have looked on IQANForum and I have seen this error before but not from the same source.

We are fixing the wire ethernet connector on the vehicle but is this something that has a precedent ?

Have you seen this type of error before?

Thanks for the support.
