VIN|ING 2000 (successor product)

For applications with D-PDU API, VINING 2000 can be used with a breakout box

 

HSX-S (discontinued)

 

VIN|ING 2000 (successor product)

For applications with D-PDU API, VINING 2000 can be used with an alternative cabling. 

Diagnostic Interfaces - HS Family

High performance VCIs for diagnostic applications and flash programming

The diagnostic interfaces of the HS family are used together with the communication software and a standardized D-PDU API interface in accordance with ISO 22900-2. This enables simple integration into a D-Server in accordance with the standards ASAM MCD-3D/ISO 22900-3, although direct integration into a test application is also possible.

The HS interfaces are perfect for multi-link communication in diagnostic and flash applications on the entire vehicle as protocol processing takes place on the interface with a 32-bit high-performance CPU.

 

HSX Breakout

High-performance VCI with USB/Ethernet port and integrated lab connectors for the use in engineering.
 

 

HSX-S

Sturdy high-performance VCI with USB and LAN interface for use in manufacturing and after-sales service.
