I am setting up my first project, run a servo.

I see how to set the frequency of the tag, but i don't see how to set pulse width.

0%=500us pulse  100%=2500us pulse.

Any example would be helpful 

Thank you !

XC21. Is it possible to connect 2 Digital out LS in parallel to drive more load?

I want to connect a buzzer that draws about: 400mA

Hello,

We are going to be mounting an XC43 externally. The module and connector are rated for it, IP6K9K.

Has anyone else done this?

How does one go about neatly mounting external diodes for the digital outputs?

I need diodes that go between HS DOUTs to ground and between the pins of HS+LS DOUTS.

Regards,

Just installed Design 6 and exploring the modules I noticed that some units we currently use such as, MC2, MD3, XA2, XS2 and MC3 are no longer included, when are these items going to be removed from sale? 

I obviously will not include them in any new designs but I was just wondering this as we have quite a few machines in production with these units going forward.

It would be super helpful to have a USB port on new master modules that would allow end users to plug in and download new software that we could send them, instead of making them purchase IQAN Run. Just an idea, I'm sure others agree that some sort of alternative way to allow end-users or dealers to load program updates would be very helpful. (if there is a way to do this without any additional hardware please let me know)

Hello,

I am using a DOUT LS on XC23 to drive a 12V incandescent bulb on an instrument panel.  In steady state, the lamp draws 85 mA.  I am getting an overload on this output when I try to activate the lamp.  I was able to temporarely solve the problem by using a 22 ohms in series with the load.  So I believe the problem is the inrush current of the lamp.  The instruction book of the XC23 clearly states that the LS DOUT "are designed to drive small loads, e.g. lamps and buzzers".  The example even shows a lamp being driven by a LS DOUT.

Can you explain if I'm doing something wrong.  If not, is there any fix available to solve this issue ?

Thanks,

Guillaume

We use the MD4-7 for all our systems.  I have one of my customer with a Fairly new(3 years) but rarely used unit for a test bench.  He complains and I witness that is touch screen is often not responding.  It is mounted on an aluminum test bench.  Sometimes if he moves the unit away from the bench it seems to respond better but not always.  We tried to ground the unit but it did not improve.  Do you think this is an hardware issue or is there mounting issue we need to look at?

Hello,

ID-tag 4 to 7 does not exist for Molex MX123.

We use 4,5 and 7 today and have to re crimp those ID-Tags for MX123.

When do you plan to offer ID-Tags 4 to 7 for MX123?

Is the G3 GPS capabilities precise and quick enough to act as a speedometer for a vehicle?

We normally fit standalone GPS speedometers but could reduce costs if we fit a G3 as a substitution. Has anyone done this before?

I'm looking for information on IQAN-MG units product no. 5010001. Are these units set up differently for 12v or 24v or does one unit do both 12 and 24? If they are different units, how is that differentiated in the product number? If they are the same unit how is the Maximum output determined? Is it done during the programming?

Thanks for any information!
