MD4 using a three wire speed sensor rather then encoder for unidirectional pulse count
Hello Is there a way to use a GS60 speed sensor with the MD4? I have not tried it yet but would really prefer to use a three wire sensor then an encoder.
What are the symptoms of a XS2/XA2 failure?
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?
MD4 functionality after screen crack
Say the MD4 screen is broken or cracked, would the I/O and CAN messages still work on the module, assuming no damage to the board in the enclosure?
MC43 PWM out
I am working on the control system using MC43. Please let me know urgently whether I can use MC43 ‘PWM out HS+LS’ or ‘PWM out HS’ to control Danfoss PVES or PWEM proportional solenoids
From MC43 instruction book:
From Danfoss solenoid specifications

Generally driving Danfoss PVG valves with IQAN Control system, we advice using the PVHC control option from Danfoss. You can drive the PVHC direct from the IQAN COUT current control output, Simple and works well.
Ratiometric input signal requred by PVEM series cannot be controlled by IQAN available Outputs, same for PVEP PWM signal controlled modules as they have high input impedance (5 kOhm), requiring extra Pull-down resistors to connect to IQAN PWM output
Another, more expensive, option is using Danfoss CAN control module PVED series, then need to include CAN protocol in your IQAN application
Voltage input to MC2 from an amplifier
Hello Team,
I've been working with potentiometers and parker sensors (pressure and temperature) before without any problems, but now i need to use a voltage output (0-5V) from an amplifier as a voltage input on my MC2. The amplifier is connected to a sensor and have a standard +- output. I've tried to connect + to one of the VIN-x and neg to -VREF (or to the common terminal on the power supply). Tried different combinations but the measurement mode on the MC2 shows zero input all the time. Multimeter measurements confirm that the amplifier output around 1V. Logically don't see why it should now work, but maybe you can advise how 3rd party sensors (amplifiers) are connected to parker systems? Thank you!
Startup Multi-Master
If an application have a MD4 and MC4X and they are connected as multi-master. How does the startup looks like? Will the MC4X start communicate with peripherals as soon its booted or does it wait until MD4 is booted?
CM0504 Current Limit
Regarding th CM0504 module. What is the time to trip for the 25A current limit? If a motor is powered and spikes above 25A, will cause the module to fault? And will it recover?
XA2 no connect four red LED blinks
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.
Hi Anthony,
I am glad it was just a case mistaken identity and the XA2 module was in fact an XT2 module !
Conneting IQAN MC41 to PC
I need to know what are the possibilities to connect MC41 controller with PC to flash program into controller and for diagnostics.
You can only connect via CAN to a MC41.
So you need to have a USB to CAN interface.

MD4 +RTC RESISTOR
The MD4 documentation states to use 1.5K ohm resistor on the +RTC circuit. Is the 1.5K ohm the only type that is usable, or is there a range that will work?
