Following the success of Goepel's boundary scan solutions for electronics manufacture test, Accelonix has added the Goepel range of automotive test systems to its product portfolio. Goepel's automotive test products are now available for the first time outside Germany. Goepel took this decision owing to the collaborative nature of product development which has been very application intensive requiring a logistically close working relationship with its automotive partners.
Paul Phillips, Managing Director of Accelonix is excited at the prospect of being the UK's sole distributor of Goepel automotive test solutions.
It is, he believes, a growth sector and one which will benefit from having Goepel's product range added to it.
Commenting on Goepel's CAN Master Line he said, "A particular strength is that it is able to simulate a car's environment superbly, including the ability to simulate many types of failure.
Goepel's software is powerful and flexible enough to handle continuous messaging and has several functions to generate ramps, sweeps, parallel messages and so on".
Goepel's automotive test products include CAN Master Line, a test and real-time simulation tool for vehicle control units using an intelligent CAN interface.
Available in three formats depending on system complexity needed.
The basicCAN is a low cost solution for small applications needing up to four CAN interfaces.
The next level, dynamicCAN, is a modular system which can be expanded to accommodate as many CAN interfaces as are required.
The magicCAN has additional features including digital I/O, frequency generator, PWM generator and resistance simulator for test as well as simulation applications.
CAN Masterline modules are supplied with Windows software and connect to the host PC using RS232 or via the PXIbus.
Tessy is a PXI-based modular functional test system for vehicle control units.
Modules available include relay and matrix switching, intelligent CAN and LIN interfaces, digital I/O, multichannel analogue waveform generator, telegram generator, frequency generator, diagnosis interface, resistance simulator as well as DMM, digital oscilloscope, power supplies etc.
The control software runs under Windows and includes a macro library and test sequencer along with the ability to program new macro functions using LabView.
Diagnosis tool is a software tool to control the K-line and/or provide diagnosis via CANbus.
Enables easy control of the bus and interfaces to a database to allow bus data to be translated into physical units.
Handles all common automotive bus protocols.
K-Liner is a measuring instrument for checking that a vehicle control unit conforms to K-line diagnosis protocols and specifications.
Visitors to next week's UK Nepcon show will be able to see these products for the first time in the UK on Accelonix' stand 1170.
