DTS Venice

Automotive Diagnostic Tool Set - DTS Venice

DTS Venice enables the convenient creation, testing, management and maintenance of diagnostic specifications over the entire process chain for OEMs as well as system and ECU suppliers. The early detection of errors ensures premium data quality from the very beginning.

Areas of Application

  • Description and validation of diagnostic functions and ECU communication
  • Data interoperability test
  • Provision of test data for integration and system test
  • Data adaptation in production preparation and for use in repair shop testers


Completeness and Data Consistency Guaranteed

DTS Venice is part of the Diagnostic Tool Set product family and is based on the DTS Base System. Venice stands for Vehicle Communication Database Editor.
The ODX databases of modern vehicles are highly complex and usually become more so during their lifetime due to additional variants, maintenance measures and function extensions. With DTS Venice, the consistency and completeness of the database can be ensured with formal testing for correct syntax as well as verification of semantics with checker rules. Diagnostic description inheritance is visualized graphically. Authoring guidelines for the ODX standard and the runtime format of the DTS Base System are supplied. User-specific guidelines are easy to integrate.

Suitable for Both ODX Experts and ECU Developers

The entire ODX data model can be edited in the expert view.
The optional Comfort Package transforms the model to the nomenclature of the user. First of all an ECU view provides a simplified view of the data of an ECU as well as its variants. And secondly, assistants guide you interactively through data entry when creating the diagnostic specification.

Versatile Data Management

DTS Venice supports both working with subsets of ECU information (ECU Shared Data) and the simultaneous editing of several databases. Existing data descriptions in ODX format, in the form of onboard data or measured value descriptions can be imported and reused. The DTS PDX Manager enables convenient data exchange with other ODX databases. In addition, DTS Venice can generate the runtime format of the DTS Base System and issue diagnostic specifications as PDF files.

Benefits

  • Efficient creation of the diagnostic specification thanks to assistant support
  • Greater data quality thanks to testing of syntax and semantics as well as author guidelines
  • Data consistency over the entire process chain thanks to standard tool with central database (single source)
  • Considerable cost saving thanks to the possibility of importing existing data descriptions and early error detection
  • Shorter approval process as suppliers can test conformity with the OEM regulations themselves
