An overview of the dates and further information on our online seminars from Softing Automotive for the summer 2023 can be seen here. Compact and modular training seminars with practice-oriented user workshops and profound theoretical knowledge. With our basic and expert seminars, we will support you in your daily challenges. We offer beginners as well as advanced users the professional handling of our tools in vehicle diagnostics and communication. In addition, we offer you the opportunity to gain basic as well as in-depth knowledge of the standards of data concepts (ODX) and diagnostic sequences (OTX).

Softing Automotive welcomes you again this year to the Diagnostics Conference in Dresden. On May 23 and 24, you will learn everything about diagnostics in mechatronic vehicle systems. Among others, Jürgen Heilmeier, Manager Innovation & Test at Softing Automotive, and Markus Steffelbauer, Head of Product Management at Softing Automitive, will present the innovations in SOVD in development - from ECU to vehicle.

The fields of innovation, electric and alternative drives, as well as increasing digitalization and automated driving, are of particular importance in the mobility of the future. We would like to know the professional view of an independent expert from the field of vehicle systems technology on this topic. To this end, we have arranged an interview with Prof. Dr.-Ing. Stefan Goß and would like to know how he views current developments in the automotive industry and their impact on standardization in vehicle diagnostics.

Digitization and digital transformation, as well as e-mobility, are topics that are currently keeping the automotive industry very busy. Trends such as remote work and cloud solutions as well as 4G and 5G technologies are currently in great demand. Among other things, they enable on-board access to the vehicle. And there are always new topics with regard to automation as well. In the area of diagnostics, the requirements are becoming increasingly complex, not least due to extensive safety measures.

Join Softing Automotive and our partner Kvaser for a free joint webinar on December 7th, 2022 (10:00AM EDT, 04:00PM CET) to find out how the latest CAN technology enhancements (CAN, CAN FD, CAN XL) support UDS, what the new SAE J1979 regulations mean in practice for diagnostics test, and how OEMs and Tier 1s can benefit.

We are pleased to be able to inform you that a new version of our “Diagnostic Tool Set” is in the starting blocks. Version 9.03 of the diagnostic tester Softing DTS.monaco contains lots of new features that will make your work even simpler. Thanks to the integration of a new connect plug-in (dynamic VCI handling), both the integration and configuration of a VCI are now more convenient than before – regardless of whether the VCI is local or remote.

The modern diagnostic simulation Softing TCS is the solution whenever the corresponding counterpart for testing is not yet or no longer available. This is typically the case when validating functionalities in early phases of component and vehicle engineering, conducting tester regression tests or when using in a teaching facility in which many different test objects in a wide range of variants are required for training purposes.

Softing will be part of the International VDI Congress ELIV MarketPlace on October 15-16, 2022 in Baden-Baden, Germany. The ELIV Marketplace combines the three top-class conferences "E/E in Passenger Cars", "EE in Commercial Vehicles" and "E/E in Mobile Machinery" and sees itself as a platform where methods and techniques of current trends and top topics are presented in depth. More than 400 experts meet to find out about trends and developments relating to electronics in mobile applications.
