Application:

The IQAN-MD3 is a master unit that works with the expansion modules in the IQANdesign platform control system. The IQAN-MD3 is fully programmable for use in any machine application, as a graphical user interface and as a CAN gateway.
The IQAN-MD3 is constructed to be weatherproof for outdoor use. The unit will display vehicle data and system information.

Design and function:

The IQAN-MD3 has a 3.5” QVGA color LCD display. There are five navigation buttons and four ’soft’ function buttons to make interaction with the control simple for the operator. The unit is designed to be easily mounted in a vehicle dashboard or exterior control panel. The unit has two sealed and keyed Deutsch DTM 12 position connectors. The 32-bit microprocessor in the IQAN-MD3 uses the same kernel as our other IQANdesign master units. This allows application function groups to be imported between unit types. For time critical functions the sample rate can be set as low as 10 ms. The unit has a large internal memory for events and logging that is capable of storing 80,000 records. The IQAN-MD3 analog inputs accept 0-5V signals from input devices or sensors. These inputs can also
be set up as on-off inputs. A digital output is available and may be used for alarm or alert signals. The IQAN-MD3 has three CAN buses for connection to other modules. The CAN buses may be configured for IQAN expansion modules, IQAN diagnostics, SAE J1939 or Generic CAN. The IQAN-MD3 is made using selected components and conforms to strict international requirements.
