Solutions for Aerospace Electronic Networking

The importance ascribed to aerospace electronics and software has changed fundamentally. The networking of line replaceable units (LRUs) is integral to aerospace electronics. Initially, just a few line-replaceable units were used in aircrafts, but innovations were soon increasingly based on electronics, and predominated by a share of functionality residing in software and functional integration. This rising complexity means that extensive, reproducible, and effective tests are more important than ever in all phases of LRU and system development.

With many years of experience testing aircraft components and systems, Vector offers an open platform of tools and services for testing embedded systems such as Software Unit, Functional Software, and LRU testing through to System Integration Test Rigs.

Application Areas

Vector provides aircraft manufacturer and suppliers with a professional and open development platform of tools for the development and test of embedded systems. Four fields of application are in particular focus:

Software Testing
Automating DO-178C and DO-330 compliant testing activities across the software development lifecycle of avionics systems.
System Testing
Realizing development accompanying SIL simulations and HIL tests with parallel access to bus systems (e.g. CAN, ARINC 429, AFDX® und Ethernet) and I/Os (analog and digital).
Field Testing
Mobile testing, failure searching and analyzing of LRUs and subsystems on protocol and physical layer.
Network Analysis & Stimulation
Easy observation, analysis and logging of bus data as well as stimulation and supplementing of avionic data bus communication.

Modular Test Hardware

To test LRUs thoroughly, it is not only necessary to connect the communication networks to the test system, it is also necessary to connect the I/O interfaces.

This task is handled by the Vector VT System. It simplifies the setup of test benches and HIL test systems immensely, because it integrates all circuit components needed to connect an I/O channel in one module. Examples of I/O channels are an LRU's output for controlling a reading light or input for connecting a liquid level sensor.

CANoe Options for Measurement

The option .Scope is an integrated oscilloscope solution for CANoe based on an USB oscilloscope hardware. The supported hardware has up to 4 input channels for 2 CAN (FD) or 4 LIN/IO and is triggered using the sync line of Vector´s interface hardware. With bus specific trigger conditions and the CANoe time synchronization, you can find the cause of protocol errors much faster than with any traditional oscilloscope.

Oscilloscope Hardware :

USB 3.0 oscilloscope PicoScope 5444D-034
512 MS scope buffer
1 GS/s maximum sampling rate (1 channel)
500 MS/s sampling rate for 2 channels (e.g. CAN_H, CAN_L)
4 input channels for bus signals (2 CAN/CAN FD/FlexRay or 4 LIN/IO)
Bus connection via Vector „Scope Bus Probe“ with D-Sub connector
1 input for external triggering via sync line of Vector interfaces
Connection to Vector interfaces via Scope Trigger Cable
