The increasing number of software functions and variants in vehicles leads to increased complexity over the entire vehicle life cycle. Software updates are becoming increasingly frequent and relevant, even after the vehicle has been delivered, in order to optimize functions, rectify faults or activate new features. These must be carried out efficiently and without errors. At the same time, diagnostic processes are becoming increasingly demanding due to the large amount of data and interfaces. In particular, they must reliably map the high variance in the vehicle configuration. Softing TDX offers exactly the right tool support for a modern diagnostic tester in aftersales.

With the stand-alone tester ‘VIN|ING 2000 PDX’, Softing offers a self-sufficient test solution for vehicle diagnostics that can be carried out directly on the vehicle without a PC or laptop. The compact, user-friendly solution enables ECU updates and diagnostics directly on the vehicle and is controlled via OTX scripts. Programmable buttons and coloured LED lights facilitate operation and indicate the current status of the application. The solution is suitable for use in production, road tests and after-sales service, saves time and costs and can also be operated by semi-skilled personnel after configuration. The ability to operate several devices in parallel further increases efficiency.

Have you ever wondered how practical it would be to combine all diagnostic functions in one single tool? The Softing Diagnostic Tool Set is an intuitive diagnostic tool for the entire range of use cases in both vehicle engineering and development as well as diagnostics, from ECU testing to vehicle release in engineering, testing and manufacturing.

With easy to create automated communication tests, the large number of ECUs and their variants as well as the wide variety of diagnostic services and parameterizations can be conveniently verified. With the Test Case Editor in Softing OTX.studio, the validation of ECUs is created quickly and easily by using an intuitive drag & drop function. It is also possible to visualize the results in XML or HTML format and map the statistics of the test campaigns. In this video you can see how simple it is to create ECU communication tests.

Our new video series "Solution Spotlights" is now available for you. Our trainers use practical examples to introduce you to the challenges of automotive electronics as well as concrete solution approaches and their benefits. The short videos are not only suitable for experts, but also for beginners from the areas of development, production as well as aftersales. Each topic is explained in an easy-to-understand manner and is also clearly illustrated by a short demo of the use case from practice.
