Testing and inspection equipment
Many years of experience in testing communication systems and in the development of tools are the basis for the development of testing and inspection equipment adapted to customers' requirements, especially for applications in the automobile industry.
The testing and inspection devices are either PC-based or implemented as stand-alone devices and work either completely autarchically or have displays and control panels for direct display and operation.
Our range of services for testing and inspection devices comprises:
- Development of testing and implementation concept
- Hardware development or product modification (if necessary)
- Software development
- Production and long-term supply of testing and inspection devices
- Long-term management of the devices
Example projects:
Data logger for recording CAN data (CANcorder MMC)In cooperation with an automobile manufacturer, IXXAT developed an autonomous data logger for CAN buses. When developing the hardware, special attention was paid to minimal power consumption. The data logger is capable of recording over long periods and allows the start-up/wake-up behavior of CAN buses to be recorded. The firmware and the associated configuration software enables simple configuration by means of Windows-based tools despite complex filter and trigger possibilities. Thanks to the modular concept, simple extendibility was created that also allows specific additional functions, such as specific ECU error memory stimulation or the connection of measuring equipment of other suppliers.
Testing and diagnostics device for testing vehicle control unitsThe device developed by IXXAT in accordance with specifications of a renowned automotive supplier provides a wide range of functions for testing vehicle. Via appropriate interfaces and protocols, the device has access to the main signals transmitted on the CAN bus and to the control units, and via a K-Line connection to the main diagnostics data. Software updates and configuration data can be downloaded to the device via a serial port. The device has a user-friendly interface and supports a large number of functions such as reading of the control unit error memory, display and output of configurable measured values as analogue values, writing/reading of control unit parameters, CAN monitor functions or the display of special control unit data. A user-friendly configuration program is available for the configuration of the device.
The very cost-effective device is widely used in the areas of development, application, tests and after-sales service as well as for functional tests and troubleshooting in vehicles, laboratories or test benches. IXXAT has been responsible for the continual further development of hardware and software and production of the devices for many years.
