VIN|ING 2000 (successor product)

For your applications, the VIN|ING 2000 with alternative cabling can be used as a successor product.

EDICusb - Multibus USB Interface for Vehicle Electronics

VCI with USB interface for use in engineering and testing

Diagnostic interfaces from Softing are based on the tried and tested EDIC® hardware and software platform. EDICusb is perfect for the use of heterogeneous on-board networks with CAN bus, K-line and LIN bus, and enables universal implementation in engineering and testing.

Areas of Application

  • Simulation
  • Test/validation
  • Manufacturing
  • Fast and reliable flash programming
  • Gateway tests (shared time base for CAN and ISO 9141/LIN)

Advantages

  • 3 independent channels: 2 x CAN and 1 x ISO 9141/LIN
  • Data preprocessing and protocol handling in the interface
  • Intelligent data buffering for parallel communication channels
  • Status display via 3 LEDs
  • Galvanic isolation

Overview

Protocol handling in the Interface

The vehicle protocols are handled directly in the interface. This ensures fast response times and reliable real-time behavior regardless of the PC operating system. Extensive buffer mechanisms make parallel operation of several communication channels possible.

Software Interfaces

The communication protocols UDS (ISO 14229) and KWP 2000 (ISO 14230, ISO 15765) as well as many OEM-specific protocols are supported via the standardized D-PDU API (ISO 22900-2). With a software layer based on the D-PDU API, the VCI can also be used as a PassThru device in accordance with SAE J2534. Together with the Diagnostic Tool Set DTS from Softing, a total solution in accordance with the MCD-3D standard ISO 22900-3 and ODX technology can be realized.

Scalability

By combining several EDICusb interfaces (or even other EDIC® interfaces), the number of communication channels available on the PC system can quickly be adapted to the relevant application.

Flexibility

Software upgrades are also available for EDICusb ensuring it is always perfectly equipped for future applications. This is also the way to realize customer-specific software solutions. The CAN bus physics can be varied by using piggybacks.
