IQAN G3 Modem service interruption

Domenico 6 years ago in Gateways / G2/G3 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 1

We installed a G3 modem (with SIM Parker installed) on a customer's machine and we activated the Proemion service as in all other cases. All worked well for about a year; suddenly the service was interrupted, and Proemion warned us that there is no "data plan" for the embedded SIM, inviting us to choose a suitable one. It is not clear to us why the modem worked for a year without a specific "data plan" for the SIM and then suddenly it was blocked. Was there any error in the initial modem settings? In the software there configuration of the modem (through IqanRun) maybe we missed something?

Thank you.

Short Circuit Protection on XA2 DOUTs?

Ethan Zeman 6 years ago in Expansion modules / XA2, XS2 updated by Thomas Moberg (System support) 6 years ago 3

Pardon me if this information is already readily available but am having trouble finding it.

If the wiring for an XA2 DOUT is shorted to battery is there an internal protection strategy in the module that will protect the XA2 from being damage?

Frequency input MC4xx

Captain Sprocket 6 years ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by Mark Bevington 6 years ago 8

Hi,


We have installed a speed sensor (PNP, 15000Hz) onto a MC42 frequency input (pin C1:28, PD).

The problem we have is that the raw value only goes up to about 2800Hz then zero's out with no further reading and we need to get a reading up to at least 5500Hz.

I have configured the input settings to: Max HZ -> 15000 and also the Scaled Maxed-> 15000 to mach the sensor's capabilities and then use the raw reading to scale a RPM value.

We tried adjusting the sensor closer to the ring gear, but no improvement.  

So I did a test to see if it might be the sensor that is faulty by connecting the sensor to a different type/brand of controller. It immediately worked and gave the correct reading constantly.

The question is now... What am I doing wrong on the IQAN side?

XS2 Dout to +bat?

Forrest 6 years ago in Expansion modules / XA2, XS2 updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 4

I'd like to have IQAN control be paralleled with switch control. This specific application will be a drop axle. I want the IQAN to drop the axle in certain situations, and have a switch that will drop it at any time, even if the control system is powered down,

I believe I have to protect the module from back-feeding, correct? Will just diode protection be enough or do I need to have the Dout controlling a relay that would toggle the input between the switch and a +bat source?

diodes on coils

Theleo De Bruyn 6 years ago updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 6 years ago 1

Hi there!

we are using prop valves for an application. and we use a cout (current out) to control them. but over the 2 pins of the coil there is a LED with a resistor. and in the instruction of our module (MC43) they say: Do not instal diodes over the coils.

so i was wondering: is a LED a Diode in this application? Do i need to remove the LED?


Thanks for helping!

MC43 Error Code

Greg Landon 6 years ago in Master modules / MC4x updated by ryanS 2 years ago 3

I have a MC43 with the following blink code 4 red, 2 yellow, 1 yellow, 1 yellow, 1 yellow. What do the 3 yellow blinks at the end mean? This happens intermittently when the module first gets power.

Answer

If it's occurring on start up, the likely causes are battery voltage exists on an output before the module powers up or a slow rise in power supply voltage.  Possible causes are covered in appendix B of the instruction book.
