MD4 10" screen

Richard 9 years ago in Master modules / MD4 0

Does anyone know how the 10" version of the MD4 is coming along. The last information I had was the unit was not released for production yet due to screen fogging issues. I hope that is resolved as I may well have an application for the unit.

Is the unit available for sale?

MD4 user inputs

Richard 10 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated 8 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 10 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Mitch Houle 6 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 10 years ago in Master modules / MD4 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 4 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.

MD4 and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) exposure

Jamy 2 months ago in Master modules / MD4 0

We have experienced issues with two MD4-10 units where the touchscreens have become unresponsive. These master modules were being used on two different underground mining machines, operating in the same area of the mine with high levels of H₂S. Could there be a correlation between H₂S exposure and the touchscreens becoming unresponsive?

Thanks in advance!

Can a 12V relay be driven by the LS DOUT of an MD4 supplied with 24V without protection or diagnostic issues?

Actuating 24Vdc coil with MD4

Deanne 1 year ago in Master modules / MD4 updated 1 year 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.
