The Christmas season should bring you moments of joy, serenity, and harmony to end the year in a special way. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/vehicle-data-in-human-readable-form-with-ed-and-ted.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/vehicle-data-in-human-readable-form-with-ed-and-ted.html#commentsThu, 09 Nov 2023 08:52:41 +0100https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/vehicle-data-in-human-readable-form-with-ed-and-ted.htmlA fully equipped vehicle produces several gigabits of data per second. In particular, this data provides information about the technical condition of the vehicle. In raw format and also in standardized data description formats, however, this data is generally not comprehensible to humans. Therefore, they are interpreted by software and converted into human-readable information. Softing's Smart Diagnostic Engine (SDA) is a platform-independent runtime system that interprets and executes diagnostic functions, simple diagnostic services and even complex and automated diagnostic sequences for precisely this purpose. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/automated-test-of-ecu-in-and-outputs/solution-spotlights.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/automated-test-of-ecu-in-and-outputs/solution-spotlights.html#commentsThu, 02 Nov 2023 17:21:00 +0100https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/automated-test-of-ecu-in-and-outputs/solution-spotlights.htmlOur 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. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/next-generation-vehicle-test-flash-visit-us-at-eliv-2023.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/next-generation-vehicle-test-flash-visit-us-at-eliv-2023.html#commentsThu, 12 Oct 2023 14:24:36 +0200Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/next-generation-vehicle-test-flash-visit-us-at-eliv-2023.htmlTo successfully manage the transition to the software-defined vehicle and ensure safety and performance in the increasingly digital vehicle world, Softing Automotive has developed an innovative solution for next-generation flash and test applications. Meet Softing Automotive at the ELIV Congress 2023 in Bonn to learn more about the next generation of vehicle test & flash solutions. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/efficient-vehicle-simulation-with-ed-ted-get-it-done.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/efficient-vehicle-simulation-with-ed-ted-get-it-done.html#commentsTue, 10 Oct 2023 10:58:00 +0200Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/efficient-vehicle-simulation-with-ed-ted-get-it-done.htmlSimulations help increase efficiency and reduce risks throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle. Solutions for diagnostic simulation of ECUs and vehicles ensure process-reliable regression testing of diagnostic testers (“test the tester”), simplify the commissioning of test sequences, and provide optimal training opportunities for employees. All required vehicle variants, including fault patterns, can be conveniently simulated. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/softing-automotive-is-sponsor-of-the-formula-student-team-munichmotorsport-ev.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/softing-automotive-is-sponsor-of-the-formula-student-team-munichmotorsport-ev.html#commentsMon, 02 Oct 2023 14:39:00 +0200https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/softing-automotive-is-sponsor-of-the-formula-student-team-munichmotorsport-ev.htmlSofting Automotive is proud sponsor of the Formula Student Racing Team municHMotorsport e.V. of the University of Applied Sciences Munich.

The COMVEC™ Technology Connection is the convening point for the community that develops vehicles and equipment spanning the on-highway, off-highway (agriculture, construction, industrial), ground defense, and mining sectors. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/default-2a6299e8f8.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/default-2a6299e8f8.html#commentsThu, 31 Aug 2023 11:17:18 +0200Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/default-2a6299e8f8.htmlDue to the rapid increase in electronics and software in the vehicle, testing ECUs is becoming increasingly complex. It is no longer only individual systems that have to be tested, but also the interactions between the systems. One possible key to the solution is test automation. While good results are already being achieved in many areas of vehicle electronics through simulations, this step still needs to be taken in vehicle diagnostics. It is obvious: An external device, the diagnostic tester, is developed or adapted to perform the test - but the necessary counterpart in the form of an ECU or vehicle is missing to test the tester. With Softing TCS, a configurable diagnostic simulation with real communication is available in time, which considerably accelerates the creation of automated tests.
