DaVinci Configurator Classic continues to provide a proven foundation for configuring, validating, and generating MICROSAR Classic projects, now evolving to meet the demands of modern software factories with collaborative, high-performance, and automation-ready workflows. With Generation 6, you are ready to scale development, streamline integration and support CI/CD-driven environments for Software-Defined Systems.
Key Benefits Enabled by Generation 6
- Collaboration & Reuse
Configure entire ECUs as code and manage changes through Git-based workflows. Reuse configuration artifacts across projects, streamline reviews, and keep teams aligned with version-controlled development. - Fast Feedback Loops
Reduce iteration times with fast tool startups, efficient processing steps and intelligent caching throughout the entire workflow. - Flexible Deployment
Run your configuration workflow on Windows or Linux, on developer machines, on-premises infrastructure, or in the cloud. Integrate seamlessly into build environments with clearly defined artifacts and dependencies.
- Modern Configuration Experience
Create, understand, and modify configurations in a fully modernized user interface. Stay in control and keep full ownership, even when the configuration is created as-Code or by AI agents. - AI-Assisted Engineering
Use the integrated AI chatbot for help and configuration insights . Extend your workflow with coding agents that help implement you configuration use cases in code and resolve found issues faster.
Evolution Steps
Generation 6 arrives in two evolution steps. Evolution Step 1 improves the familiar way of working and sets the technical foundation for the move to Evolution Step 2. It builds on a familiar environment, based on the graphical user interface and the configuration paradigms of DaVinci Configurator 5. Evolution Step 2 enables the new, code-centric way of working, and can already be integrated step-by-step while Step 1 is in place.
Step 1 - Highlights
- A modular and transparent input file handling workflow.
- Optimized performance and turnaround times.
- Tool version independence from the MICROSAR release to allow projects benefit from the latest tool versions.
- Flexible project structure and text-based project settings for an easy git integration.
- Improved command line interface and modernized public automation interface.
- AI chatbot that answers your questions, explains a configuration and applies small changes.
Step 2 - Highlights
- Configuration of the Ecu "as-Code" via the ECU SDK to accelerate collaboration and reuse across projects.
- Modernized graphical user interface to configure, view and understand configurations.
- Efficient caching of outputs and intermediate results through the whole workflow.
- AI agentic workflows that realize configuration use cases in code and resolve compile, runtime and validation errors.
