Pump Control Module for eP2 piston pumps
Our colleagues at Parker in Germany has released a Pump Control Module based on the IQAN-MC41, for the P2 pump series.


The Pump Control Module (PCM) is a pre-programmed stand-alone module that acts as a dedicated pump controller with either analog or J1939 commands.
As it is based on an IQAN module, adjustments and measure is available via IQANrun over CAN.
To ease integration in an IQAN system, an IQANdesign 5 plug-in module implementing the J1939 interface to the module is being developed.

MD4 10" screen
Does anyone know how the 10" version of the MD4 is coming along. The last information I had was the unit was not released for production yet due to screen fogging issues. I hope that is resolved as I may well have an application for the unit.
Is the unit available for sale?
MD4 user inputs
I have tried - Grayhill - Graf-Syteco and powerkey so far who do have keypads but they do not have a size or shape currently in production that fits nicely alongside the MD4 (7").
Does anyone have any ideas?
Great Job Rotating the MD3-M15 screen 45 degrees to correct polarization issue. Our customers are pleased.
usb Ethernet adapter for MD4
Could I add a USB port and a USB to Ethernet adapter so they can continue connecting with USB?
Does anyone have a better workaround?
MD4 Temperature Test
Last monday, we did MD4 temperature test. MD4 waited at -33°C for 4 hours in a closed enviroment. After 4 hours, Power on MD4 7" touch panel and We tested digital in, digital out, canbus channel, touch screen. Resault we are fine. We didnt have a problem. My hand just froze when testing :)
Analog Input - Temperature Sensor
The question is if any of you have used a temperature sensor in the analog input of a MD4-7? Was it PTC or NTC? Because in pdf only talks about connect a PTC sensor with a pull-up resistor. Kind regards. Diego.
IP camera with external 12/24VDC supply.
Do anyone have a good suggestion of a IP camera for MD4 that have external 12 or 24VDC power supply? Most of the cameras I've seen only have POE and a POE injector just ad up a lot of cost.
Of course rugged design for mobile application would also be a benefit.

Molex Connector End-of-Life
Molex has indicated that the MX123 connector series are scheduled for end of life. These connectors are used on all of the MC4 and XC4 series modules. Does Parker have any information on potential future compatible replacement parts?
The supplier have decided to change part numbers on all of their harness connectors used in the MX123 connector family due to an improvement in Wire Dress Cover retention. The replacements have no change in form, fit or function.
This will affect following parts that we recommend using for IQAN-_C4_ family and also the IQAN-MD5 family:
Part numbers change:
IQAN-_C4_:
66-P connector 34822-0013 -> 216741-0001
73-P connector 34566-0103 -> 216739-0001
Dress cover 34565-0003 -> 34565-0005
IQAN-MD5:
56-P connector 34576-0703 -> 216742-0001
56-P connector 34576-1903 -> 216742-0007
Dress cover 34575-0003 -> 34575-0005
We will update our documentation to reflect this change.
MC2 Questions
The MC2 unit is now obsolete, but we still have units in the field that we need to support, the MC2 unit went through 2 part numbers in its life time as I can see, 20070899 - replaced in 2015 by 20077787.
What is the difference between these unit and if I found an old one for sale would I still be able to use utilize it?
Can the MC2 unit (20077787) still be purchased by special order if needed?
