ASAP2 Editor 8.0

ECU calibration that is performed with a measurement and calibration system such as CANape requires an ECU description file in ASAP2 format. The ASAP2 Editor is the right solution for creating and visualizing such standardized ASAP2 ECU description files.

Features and Advantages:

The convenient ASAP2 Editor is used to create, modify and update ECU description files in ASAP2 Version 1.x format. The ASAP2 Editor is optimally integrated in the development process. For example, when the ASAP2 Editor is used to create database objects, address and data type information can be taken from the linker-map file or debug file.
The ASAP2 Editor is the “standalone” version of the database editor integrated in CANape.




The ASAP2 Editor offers the following functions:

• All information can be entered and changed in Windows dialogs
• ECU description files can be imported from the ASAP2 and the CANape format and can be exported in the ASAP2, CANape or various customer-specific formats.
  An ECU description file can be exported in any user-defined ASCII format by using macros and template files.
• Selective export of individual data base objects or groups is also possible.
• The most common linker map formats and debug formats, like e.g. IEEE, ELF/DWARF, COFF and PDB are supported.
• Automatic update of the address and the data type information of an ASAP2 file via linker map file or debug file.
• Display of software structures from the linker-map file
• Options dialog simplifies Editor configuration
• Encrypted saving of A2L files protects the data from unwanted changes - even by other tools
• More user-friendly handling of corrupt A2L files by saving error states, preserving references that are no longer valid, and offering file check and auto correction options
• Plausibility checks like detection of address overlaps, etc.
• Batch operations accelerate the working process by letting users select many objects and modify their properties together

New functions of Version 8.0:

• Support of ASAP2 Version 1.60, e.g. 64 bit integer values, static record layouts and status text tables
• Automatically generated structures can be assigned to groups
• Separate handling of conversion rules and tables enables multiple re-use of tables
• Improved plausibility checks
• Support of new map formats such as Microsoft VC++
