Tool Chain for the Diagnostic Development Process


Vector offers powerful software tools for the CANdela approach, beginning with the specification, continuing with implementation of ECU software, and finishing with integration and functional testing:

  • CANdelaStudio: Simple and consistent specification of diagnostic functionality
  • CANdesc: Assured and quick integration of diagnostic functionality in the ECU
  • CANdito, CANape, CANoe:  Reliable ECU diagnostic tests in the laboratory and in the vehicle
  • CANoe Option DiVa: Automated Testing of Diagnostic Protocol Implementation and Integration in ECUs

Standardized formats for exchanging diagnostic description data, such as ODX, are supported.

The Vector Diagnostic Tools in the Development Process

  Improvement of the diagnostics development process by use of the same XML file for requirements engineering, implementation and diagnostics tester parameterization.Vector supports ODX in its diagnostically relevant products CANdelaStudio, CANape, CANdito, CANoe and CANdelaFlash.CANdito allows symbolic access to all data and functions provided by the diagnostic protocol interface of an ECU.CANape with its integrated Diagnostic Feature Set offers the full functional capabilities of a diagnostic tester on the basis of a diagnostic description file created with CANdelaStudio.KWP2000 diagnostics communication can be analyzed with CANoe.Automated Testing of Diagnostic Protocol Implementation and Integration in ECUs.Indigo is an easy to use diagnostic tester that is largely self-configured and conceals the complexity of the diagnostic protocols.The diagnostics embedded software component allows vehicle and electronic control unit (ECU) manufacturers to implement the diagnostics protocol uniformly across different products.
