1、INCA V6.0 Integrated Measurement, ECU Calibration, and Diagnostic Environment The various tools of the INCA product family comprise an integrated measurement and ECU calibration system in the lab, on the test bench, and onboard the vehicle. In the course of the calibration procedure, electronic cont

2、rol systems are adapted to suit the vehicle under test. To this end, the calibration engineer adjusts the appropriate control parameter values. The calibration may be carried out online on a running system, or it may be pre- pared offl ine ahead of time. In addition, the ODX-LINK add-on provides for

3、 the concurrent verifi cation of the ECUs diagnostic functions. At the same time, it is possible to acquire, display online, and record time synchro- nous signals from ECU, data buses (LIN, CAN, FlexRay) or measuring devices. INCA integrates a variety of measuring devices and interface modules for t

4、he purpose of accessing ECUs and data buses. The devices making up the associated ETAS hardware port- folio are both rugged and vehicle compatible. INCA is currently the only software tool to sup- port the particularly powerful ETK Interface1, which is optimized for ECU calibration and measurement d

5、ata acquisition. ETAS provides dedicated ETKs for an extensive selection of microcontrollers. To support the test engineers central tasks of calibrating, measuring, and diagnostics, INCA provides a broad spectrum of functions cover- ing the range from ECU fl ash programming to measured data analysis

6、 to calibration parame- ter management. With the introduction of tools such as INCA- LIN, INCA-J2534, and ODX-FLASH, the newly released version of the INCA product family further extends its applicability. In addition, INCA V6.0 presents enhancements and opti- mizations of existing functions. With t

7、he redesigned intuitive dialogs for variables selec- tion and trigger confi guration, the measured data analysis, calibration scenario editor, new options for calibration data exchange and management, the user completes his tasks more easily, quickly, and effi ciently.

10、 the acqui- sition of LIN signals in INCA V6.0 in synch with ancillary measurement data, along with their physical representa- tion. To accomplish this, INCA imports confi guration fi les in the LDF (LIN description fi le) format. INCA supports LIN versions 1.3 and 2.0. INCA-J2534 Add-on The North A

11、merican SAE J2534 standard defi nes a software and hardware interface for both ECU repro- gramming and diagnostics. Many manufacturers deploy J2534 compatible hardware as early as in the development phase of the diagnostic software. The INCA-J2534 add-on facilitates the use of the same hard- ware al

12、so for measuring and calibrating through the CAN interface. If the manufacturer supplying the J2534 hardware also provides a specifi c confi guration tool, the tool can be launched directly from within the INCA hard- ware confi guration editor. INCA V6.0 supports the specifi cations v0202 (February

13、2002) and v0404 (April 2004) of the J2534 standard. Due to limitations inherent in these specifi cations, the maxi- mum transmission speed is 500 kBaud. For this reason, the deployment of J2534 modules for measuring and calibrating makes good sense in situations where the diagnostic hardware is alre

14、ady available, or where a cost- effi cient solution with a low priority for performance data is desired. ODX Flash Programming With the introduction of the new ODX-FLASH add-on, a tool alternative to ProF has become available for ECU reprogramming in INCA via CAN bus or K-Line. The new Flash functio

15、nality is integrated in INCAs standard ECU calibration functions, and may be automated by means of the ASAM MCD-3MC interface. In that case, the programming sequence is controlled by an ODX stan- dard-compatible Flash project, which is programmed in Java and stored in the INCA database. Redesigned V

16、ariable and Raster Selection Dialog The dialog used for selecting variables in INCAs exper- iment environment and calibration data manager underwent a complete redesign. With particular empha- sis on the handling of large numbers of variables, the functions user friendliness has been greatly improve

17、d. As regards the assignment of signals to sampling inter- vals (rasters) for experimentation, the rasters are now arranged together with the variables in the form of a clearly organized matrix. Individual rasters can be shown or hidden as desired, with default rasters being prese- lected in the mat

18、rix. The assignment can be changed by a simple mouse click. The new Raster Fill Level“ function uses both actual values and a traffi c light“ colored dis- play to visualize the degree to which a measuring raster is fi lled with signal data. Comprehensive fi ltering options enable a differentia- tion

19、 between measurement and calibration variables of individual devices and/or calculated signals. As an alternative, the display can be restricted to variables of specifi c data types or partial label names, all of which can be dynamically entered, with the active fi lters dis- played in the icon bar.

20、 The Search function easily locates variables by means of specifi c properties, such as the memory address. Easy Confi guration of Measurement and Calibration Windows The context menus for measurement and calibration windows within INCAs experiment environment have been further standardized. The res

21、pective views can now be directly set up in Windows fashion, i.e., with the aid of confi guration tables. Quick Generation of Trigger Conditions The confi guration editor used to manipulate the trigger conditions upon whose occurrence a recording is started or stopped was redesigned in accordance wi

22、th functional and operational considerations. When setting up trigger formulas, the user is now supported at various levels. For example, variable names are automatically completed during entry. Any number of variables can be interlinked in a single step by means of AND or OR operands. Trigger condi

23、tions share common traits: Their terms slated for subsequent reuse can be stored separately, and different conditions can be easily combined. Errors are indicated by colored highlights, and once created, trigger condi- tions can be exchanged between different experiments in the form of XML fi les. T

24、o prevent the inadvertent start of a data acquisition by a spurious aberration, a mini- mum trigger pulse interval can be specifi ed. Calibration Scenarios and Selective Switchover to Refer- ence Values The term calibration scenario describes the settings of a confi gurable set of calibration variab

25、les. INCA V6.0 provides for the defi nition of calibration scenarios for several parameter sets, as well as their easy activation onboard the ECU. This makes it easy to compare alterna- tive parameter settings of complex functions. Calibration scenarios can be saved and exchanged in the form of cal-

26、 ibration data fi les. INCA 6.0 also makes it possible to reset selected segments of characteristic curves and/or program maps to reference values. As an option, resetting the characteristic values can also reset the values of associated x-axis points. Figure 1: New calibration scenario editor. The

27、screenshot shows one scenario containing a map, a curve and two scalars. Currently the map is selected and displayed in the editor part of the dialog. Figure 4: Display of all rasters provided by a device in the variable selection dialog. Figure 2: Trigger confi guration. In the example, several tri

28、ggers are already defi ned. An auto completion list opens up while typ- ing a signal name. In the toolbox on the right-hand side, some pre-defi ned trigger formulas are offered. Figure 3: Variable selection example. Left hand, the user defi nes a source and global fi lters. At the bot- tom, the fi l

29、l level of a selected raster is shown. Figure 5: New Windows-style Properties dialog. The display confi gura- tion dialogs are accessed through the context menu of the calibration editors. Figure 6: Reworked context menu of the calibration editors. For any editor of the experiment, the menu looks th

30、e same. Figure 7: Dialog in MDA that allows the user to combine data, calcu- lated signal defi nitions and confi guration information into a single compressed fi le. New Calibration Data Manager Functions In the event that arrays need to be compared and copied, a function in the Calibration Data Man

31、ager (CDM) of INCA V6.0 can be used to specify the manner in which detected differences in the size or arrangement of arrays will be assessed with respect to the position and frequency of the values they contain. In situations where the selection of characteristic values is sorted by functions, the

32、side-by-side visualization of all functions on all hierarchy levels is now possible as an alternative to the conventional tree structure or a display of all functions at a given hierarchical level. When comparing data sets, all variables unavailable for comparison due to absence from the target data

33、 set are now identifi ed by a dedicated symbol and can be hidden or revealed by means of a fi lter function. When compar- ing one set of source data with several sets of target data, an identifi cation informs the user of those variables of the source data set that are present in exactly one or in a

34、ll of the target data sets. Exchange of Calibration Data Some data exchange formats do not contain the complete information required for the processing of characteristic values. For example, information concerning referenced axes, groups and functions, axis types, and array sizes may be missing. To

35、make this data available, CDM now offers the option of linking the data exchange fi le with the associated A2L-ECU description fi le. As a consequence, the settings governing the data exchange in both experi- ment and CDM are now stored together in a central location. In the new INCA release, the IN

36、CA-PACO add-on supports, besides the PaCo for- mat, also the CDF V2.0 exchange format for the management of maturity level information (quality status) concerning calibration variables and functions. Comprising a further development of the PaCo format, the ASAM standard CDF V2.0 supports all A2L par

37、ameter descriptions. Because CDF fi les are more com- pact than their PaCo counterparts, they can be processed more rapidly. Measured Data Analysis Made Easier In the offl ine measured data analysis (MDA), measured signals can be shifted along the x- and y-axes for comparison purposes. In the oscill

38、oscope, INCA V6.0 now provides the added option of stacking one or more signals of a given measurement fi le by means of simple drag-and-drop action. INCA V6.0 makes it possible to combine measurement analysis confi gurations with the associated fi les and signal calculations in a single compressed

39、fi le. This greatly facilitates the exchange of this data between different environ- ments and spatially separated users. Last but not least, by storing a default confi guration for the measurement data analysis, the MDA in INCA V6.0 will always present itself with the fami- liar look and feel. Figu
