Tools and Services for ECU Calibration

Calibrating ECUs is an iterative process of adjusting parameters and measuring the changes. Analysis of the measurement data then shows whether the desired behavior of the system has been achieved or whether further parameters need to be changed.
The Vector solution covers all requirements throughout the entire development process. From function development through bypassing and rapid prototyping solutions to test bench applications and test drives during trials and in series production.

Further Use Cases

A2L Editing Rapid Prototyping

Description Files for Internal ECU Parameters

Description files allow the user to access variables internal to the control unit by symbolic names. A2L files are an elementary component of every measuring and adjustment operation.

Manually create and modify your A2L files.	CANape
Extend your code generation process to create the appropriate A2L file.	ASAP2 Tool-Set
Function library for reading and writing ASAP2 files	ASAP2 Lib

Description files let the user access internal ECU parameters by symbolic names. A2L files are elementary components of every measurement and calibration operation.
