Substantial shares of resources in diagnostic development are used to keep implementation in the electronic control unit compatible with the various tester types. In addition it is important to assure that both electronic control unit and tester implementations conform to the underlying specification. Different development teams at different companies have to solve this task. This is leading to coordination effort and consistency problems. The CANdela product family offers a comprehensive approach here for standardizing the entire diagnostic process, shortening development times, and avoiding inconsistencies.
CANdelaStudio as a specification tool and central component of the CANdela approach supports the user in the acquisition and processing of ECU diagnostic data and diagnostic functionalities. The acquisition of the data is done in a XML data base. This data is electronically available for the subsequent process steps:
- Implementation (ECU software CANdesc)
- Diagnostic test in the development (e.g. CANdito, CANape, CANoe), the production environment, test stands, and service
- Automated testing of diagnostic protocol implementation and integration in ECUs (e.g. option DiVa for CANoe)
Thus the consistency of diagnostic data is ensured at any time in the process.
