Data Sheet
Compact Vehicle Interface
K-line and CAN buses in particular are being used in the
diagnostic sector with today’s ECU applications. It is particularly
important in the Engineering, Manufacturing and Service
environment to have easy-to-use access to these vehicle buses
from your PC. However, the safe and efficient handling of
ECU communication is essential, even if communication
is taking place on several channels simultaneously. This is
particularly true of the flash programming of ECUs.
EDICcard2 is a powerful hardware interface for use in precisely
such - particularly mobile - cases. EDICcard2 is softwarecompatible with other EDIC® interfaces* and can thus also
be operated with Softing tools such as DTS, EDIABAS and
VAS5163 (for VW applications).
Areas of Implementation and Applications
In the ECU Engineering, Simulation, Test and Validation sectors,
the EDICcard2 supports a wide range of communication applications. The vehicle interface enables parallel access to several
ECUs via CAN and ISO 9141 – important for diagnostic and test
applications. The protocol handling in the interface ensures
robust time response and allows fast flash programming of the
ECUs. A vehicle interface and several bus adapter cables are
available for connection to ECUs.
The wide input voltage range and galvanic isolation enable
trouble-free, mobile operation in cars and commercial vehicles
as well as in manufacturing environments.
Advantages
Protocol Processing in the Interface
The vehicle protocols are run directly in the interface. This
ensures fast response times and reliable real-time behavior
regardless of the PC operating system.
D-PDU API
The standardized programming interface provides applications
with powerful communication mechanisms and also
allows integration into diagnostic systems in accordance with
ISO 22900 (MVCI).
Scalability
By combining several EDICcard2 (or even other EDIC
®
interfaces),
the number of communication channels available on the
PC system can quickly be adapted to the relevant application.
Flexibility
Various software packages with operating software and additional
vehicle protocols, such as Diagnostics on CAN (ISO 15765),
UDS (ISO 14229), KWP 2000 (ISO 14230), TP 2.0, as well
as many OEM-specific protocols, are available for operating
EDICcard2. The support of the relevant bus systems and of
the parallel communication channels depends on the operating
software used.
