  • Practical use cases with development tester Softing DTS.monaco
  • Diagnostic sequences based on the Open Test Sequence Exchange Standard (OTX)
  • Diagnostic communication over Internet Protocol (DoIP)

Requirements: None
Duration: 2 Days (3 hours per day)
Location: Online

ODX Introduction Seminar

This seminar provides first insights into the concept of data driven diagnosis by means of the standardized data exchange format ODX ISO 22901-1 and describes the structure of the data as well as typical applications.
