IQAN is a trademark[1] for electronic control systems for mobile machinery, owned by Parker Hannifin corporation.
The CAN bus based system IQAN was developed by a small Swedish company around 1990-95. First version was introduced on the market 1995. Shortly after, around 1995 the Swedish company VOAC Hydraulics Co. bought this company and in February 1996 VOAC Hydraulics was acquired by Parker Hannifin. The IQAN-system was integrated into Parkers product range of system components for mobile machinery. The system has been further developed within the Parker organization.
With the release of the new XC I/O modules, users now have more I/O options. The development system IQANdesign is now at version 7.02. An active user forum is present at https://forum.iqan.se/
