MD4-7-T1E2 vref error A

jerry rowe 9 months ago in Master modules / MD4 0

We powered up 5 new systems, all identical programming and 2 of the displays show this error. 

We aren'y connected to the VREF A. We're trying to get some factory support but haven't been able to get any response on this.

DOUT LS issue with LED

Brendon 12 months ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Chris Litwin 12 months ago 3

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?

CCC for Chinese Market

Andy Pauly 1 year ago in Master modules updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 12 months ago 1

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

MD4-10 display turning white and can't communicate

Dragos Popa 1 year ago in Master modules / MD4 updated 1 year ago 3

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.

Digital out low side outputs

Nicolas Francoeur 1 year ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 1 year ago 1

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?

Fault Capacity of -VREF

Alex Macintosh 1 year ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 1 year ago 5

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?

Can PWM outputs be programmed to send 0-10Vdc signal?

Deanne 1 year ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Pierre Fagrell 1 year ago 4

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.

Controlling 9V/2.7A prop valve with MC4X

Deanne 1 year ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 1 year ago 3

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.
