Upgrade to the most recent release of VISION today!

Accurate Technologies Inc. Announces the 3.5 Release of its VISION Software.

ATI continues to incorporate customer feedback into VISION and is pleased to announce VISION release 3.5. Along with VISION enhancements, this release enables expansion of features and compatibility of the whole range of VISION products.

Look for enhancements of ATI’s No-Hooks Rapid Prototyping Software such as support for more versions of MATLAB and an expanded list of supported ECU target controllers. Other features include the ability to search and find data items within a Model Browser screen object, and the addition of the No-Hooks Programmer Toolkit that allows you to compile arbitrary C/C++ code and upload it to the ECU.

VISION Release 3.5 enables enhancements for ATI’s advanced ECU Interface options. The A7 Serial Interface now supports synchronous data acquisition for the Freescale eSYS MPC5534, MPC5554 and MPC5565 and Infineon TriCore TC1796 microcontrollers over the JTAG port. VISION 3.5 also supports ATI’s recently introduced M6T Memory Emulator for TriCore and the M6V for Freescale MPC5500, VertiCal compliant Product Family.

VISION compatibility continues to grow by supporting additional hardware such as a traditional Lambda meter to GPS devices. Standard GPS data can now be available in the Data Item Manager for use within VISION. Add a Compass image via VISION’s dashboard. Also look for added support for the Kvaser PCIEcan card and improved Kvaser hardware plug-n-play capability.

ATI tracks and supports the ASAM standard to promote seamless data interchange between devices throughout development, and now with VISION 3.5, users can export strategy files to A2L (ASAP2) files. In support of ASAM’s ASAP3 standard, ASAP3 implementations can now stream external data into VISION and the ASAP3 interface has three new proprietary commands to support KAM. Support for non-ASAM standards file formats such as Measure Data Format (MDF) and ISO 15765 Flashing have also been improved or added.

In addition, VISION’s CANMonitor has been expanded to include a J1939 monitor which is primarily used for the commercial vehicle networks. Use the J1939 monitor to assist in filtering the CAN ID by PGN and Source Address. Manage any database messages utilizing the Transport Protocol to decode the signals appropriately. VISION now also installs a J1939 DBC file in the VISION Projects directory.

New VISION features include an upgrade to its CAN Monitor that will also allow users to transmit CAN messages from signals selected from attached databases (.DBC files) for node simulation. Multiple active databases can also be added to a single monitor. If multiple databases are assigned to the same CAN channel, the top database with its CAN IDs looks at the second database and only adds the messages with CAN IDs that are not defined in the first database and strips them out.
