Greetings,

I have 4 LEDs each connected to a DOUT LS channel on an MC43.

The issue I have is they each turn on faintly even when the output is off.

Once the DOUT is on the light appears brighter.

The LEDS themselves are 12V LEDs like this one (though each is a different color):

I don't currently have a Current Limiting Resistor inline, would not having that cause this sort of behavior?

Or is there something else I am missing about operating LEDs off the DOUT channels?

Hello

I am exporting

- Parker IQAN-MC43FS (20085123)

- Steuermodul Parker IQAN-XC43 (20085183)

- Bluetooth Adapter Parker IQAN G11 (20085100)

- Kamera Kit Parker IQAN-SV-120 (20085106)

to the chinese market for our new prototype facility. CCC is required for the import, otherwise we are faceing an almost impossible custom clearance to China.
Do you have CCC approval for the above products. What should we do when you do not have CCC???

Thanks

Hello,

Our company's electric vehicle is using a MD4-10 display/controller with the IQAN software. Yesterday, the MD4-10 suddenly started to show lines of color on it and turned white. After a reboot, the screen seems to open but only showing a white screen and we are not able to communicate with it through an IQAN ethernet connexion.

We are trying to figure out what exactly happen so we do not repeat this mistake on the spare display that we have. 
I believe something similar happen in 2015 on another post and it had to do with the supply being too low. But it was mentioned that that issue was fixed. Furthermore, we supply 12V to the Display with a 2 A fuse as well as the RTC protection circuit that is suggested in the manual. 

- Our negative connexion is connected to the negative of the 12V battery through the vehicle's chassis. However, we also supply everything including another MD4-10 the same way. Could this cause this type of issue ? Does it need to be directly connected to the negative of the 12V battery?

- Can a short circuit between the power supply and the RTC input cause a fault of the screen, or just prevent the screen from being turned off?

Thank you for your support.

Best.

Is this MC43 output configuration is correct?

Can we power a load at higher voltage than the MC43 power for output 30 to output 46?

In the IQAN MC4x/XC4x instruction book on page 67, it is recommended that sensors requiring a supply of more than 5V have their returns connected to -VREF instead of chassis ground. I understand the reason for doing this is to minimise sensor error, however, if the sensor supply is shorted to -VREF there will be a large fault current through the -VREF pin. What is the fault current handling capability of a -VREF pin? Furthermore, if this pin is not capable of handling high fault current for the time it takes for a typical thermal circuit breaker to trip, would powering the sensor from a digital output with current limiting be a preferred option?

I have been doing some research and configuring a CANopen module to send a 0-10Vdc signal to run a prop valve. I have now been told that a PMW output on the MC4x and XC4x can be programmed to output 0-10Vdc. I wanted to confirm that is correct as I have seen in the forum that you are unable to send out that signal type. 

What is the best way connect motor in full bridge mode to MC41? 

Has anyone tried to control a D1FBE01HC0NMWO (9V/2.7A spool) with a PWMOUT, if so what is the performance like? The rating for COUT is 2.5A so I will have to utilize the PWMOUT HS. I have read that COUTs allow the best performance with solenoid.

I have a project where I am trying to stream a video of my cell phone to the MD4 display.   As I want to be able to view google maps on the display for an in cab display.   

I noticed in this post that it looks like the MD4s support HTTP streaming,  

https://forum.iqan.se/communities/5/topics/295-md4-updated-list-of-tested-functional-ip-cameras

And I found this app that will do HTTP streaming via MJPEG

https://github.com/dkrivoruchko/ScreenStream

And then I get an access point connected from my Phone, PC, and MD4 display. 

The phone has an ip address of 192.168.128.10:8080, and I can view the stream on the PC, but I cannot view it on the display.  

I tried to type in "HTTP//192.168.128.10:8080" in the URL and that didn't work, and then I tried just the port of ":8080" in the URL.    

Can you confirm that the MD4s support HTTP streaming and if so what port are you using, as I can change that in the app settings if its not 8080.  And how would I configure this in IQAN
