Highlights

• Simulation of several ECUs (CAN or K-line) with one device
• Reliable response time behavior due to protocols being run directly on the interface
• Automatic creation of the simulation from a CAN bus trace (*.asc/*.trc)
• Residual bus simulation with import of CANdb file and database at symbolic level
• High-performance interface with 32-bit PowerPC core (384MHz)
• Supported buses: CAN, K-line
• Supported protocols: UDS, KWP2000, TP2.0, J1939
• Three analog inputs and three digital inputs/outputs
• Adapter interface with banana jacks

Flexibly Adaptable to the Relevant Task

DTS Monaco is part of the Diagnostic Tool Set product family and is based on the DTS Base System. Monaco stands for Modular Analyzer for Vehicle Communication. A clearly laid out start page enables simple and fast access to the functions required most frequently. The actual workspace is divided into two: one area with a fixed layout and the second with layouts that you can toggle between. A status display below shows communication server messages. The various functions are realized using special, configurable interface elements. These “HMI Controls” can be arranged freely in the layouts in configuration mode and comprehensively configured.

Early Detection of Problems and Errors

In execution mode, a configured workspace can be “started”. In doing so individual functions can be started automatically and communication can be established in advance if so required. Self-generated test sequences enable both simple and very complex function tests. This makes it possible to detect, and remedy, communication problems and function errors at an early stage. Communication data and test results can be documented in entirety in the process.

Fast Results

For typical use scenarios predefined templates including a universal database for the OBD self-diagnosis as well as various protocol templates (WWH-OBD, J1939-73 among others) are supplied. In Demonstration mode, all functions can be tested, even without an interface and a license, using a detailed example including simulation. Furthermore, the tool has a completely integrated OTX runtime for running complex test sequences in accordance with ISO 13209. An authoring tool for creating such OTX sequences can be started directly from DTS Monaco.

Simple Creation of ODX Databases

DTS Venice is part of the Diagnostic Tool Set product family and is based on the DTS Base System. Venice stands for Vehicle Communication Database Editor. New databases can be created both on the basis of existing ODX/PDX files and on the basis of protocol templates. In the scope of delivery is a sample database containing three ECUs including detailed documentation and a tutorial.

Convenient Editing of ODX Data

A start page enables simple and fast access to the functions required most frequently. The entire ODX data model can be processed in the editor’s Expert view. The ECU view enables a simplified view of the most important data of an individual ECU as well as of its variants. Diagnostic description inheritance is visualized graphically. Integrated assistants support data input. It is possible both to work with ECU shared data and to process several databases simultaneously. For documentation purposes, the diagnostic specifications created can be output as RTF files. In Demonstration mode, ODX databases can be viewed without a license.

Top Data Quality from the Outset

The ODX databases of modern vehicles are highly complex and become even more so during their lifetime due to additional variants, maintenance measures and function extensions. DTS Venice ensures the consistency and completeness of the database at all times. Formal checks ensure the basic compliance with the ODX standard and optionally with the ASAM ODX Recommended Style. Extensions by user-specific authoring guidelines are possible.
