Intuitive Calibration for Efficiency and Creativity

VISION is an innovative, user-friendly, powerful comprehensive software solution that covers data acquisition, post-analysis, ECU calibration and ultimately the rapid prototyping of module functionality using patented No-Hooks technology. 

A fully integrated calibration and data acquisition tool that collates signals from ECUs and external sources, VISION collects measurements and also allows the real-time calibration and modification of closed loop control systems. In addition, VISION time aligns and facilitates the analysis of information, manages calibration data changes and enables flashing of the ECU. 
Chosen globally by major OEMs and Tier One suppliers, ATI’s VISION Software is designed to optimize end user work flow and as a result is easy to configure and operate. Users can readily convert files to and from VISION for data sharing or, in many cases, incorporate third party hardware supplied by other vendors, enabling seamless integration into legacy processes, systems and existing tools. 

For physical access to ECUs, VISION supports the full range of connectivity hardware from a simple USB CAN device to a high-speed A8 serial interface. 

Scalability

Unlike competitor products, VISION is available in both cost-effective scalable toolkits and dedicated packages, each offering different levels of functionality tailored to the typical requirements of the measurement, calibration and diagnostics sector. VISION Base is the foundation of all the VISION toolkits. VISION Base can be downloaded for free from support.accuratetechnologies.com. Just register, download and use some of the basic functions of VISION including the ability to configure and acquire data from all of ATI’s hardware products and use of ATI CAN network interfaces. Purchase only the toolkit functionality you need. Any toolkit addition works seamlessly within one VISION application.

Some popular pre-defined packages of toolkits include levels of data acquisition functions and ECU interface capabilities and calibration.

New to VISION 7

64-Bit Application

Increased addressable memory of a 64-bit architecture theoretically addresses 18.4 million terabytes (TB) of RAM, compared to the previous 32-bit system which is limited to just 4 GB. This is crucial for applications that require extensive memory, such as video editing, 3D rendering, and large databases.

Advanced Device Memory (ADM) Viewer

The Device Memory Tab features enhanced capabilities for memory display, region usage visualization, and editing. Users benefit from improved memory management with convenient copy/paste and undo/redo functionalities, along with a powerful data item search feature. ECU code decoding is seamlessly integrated with appropriate RP toolkits for comprehensive diagnostics.

Improved Flash Support/Scripting

With an updated 64-bit Flash interface, VISION 7.0 delivers seamless compatibility and enhanced performance. The software supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Seed&Key DLLs and introduces API support for controlling automated flashing, streamlining workflows, and boosting productivity.

Custom Screen Controls (CSC)

VISION with user created CSC are linked via scripts written in languages such as C#, Python, VBScript (Excel), or MATLAB M-scripts. VISION 7.0 includes several CSC demos to inspire creativity and customization.

GPS Location Recording and Visualizer

Virtual location data items that can be mapped to various location sources, including Windows Location Services, GPS units, CAN GPS units, and vehicle network GPS information. Users can effortlessly map GPS coordinates post-recording and leverage the Map Visualizer with trigger and cursor markers for precise analysis.

Software PC Requirements

Software PC Requirements

VISION 6.0.5

Any modern PC with a supported Windows operating system has the capability to run VISION. However, the user experience will vary based on the performance of the PC. VISION can be used in many different ways: whether a particular PC configuration will provide acceptable performance with VISION depends on how VISION is used at your company. The best approach when selecting a PC to run VISION would be to obtain a sample of a potential PC and test it under real-world conditions.


Minimum Requirements
 ATI Recommendations
Operating SystemWindows 10, Windows 11
Windows Server 2008 R2 – 2022
ATI recommends a Windows operating system that is currently supported by Microsoft.

For best compatibility with other ATI software and the future, ATI recommends a 64-bit operating system. As of VISION 7 ATI's Minimum supported OS is Windows 10. 
RAM VISION should run with the minimum amount of RAM required by the version of Windows being used. VISION 6.0.5 is a 32-bit application that can only utilize up to 4GB of RAM, so for best performance 4GB of RAM or more is recommended.

For the best compatibility with other ATI software and the future, ATI recommends as much RAM as practical for your budget. VISION Data Analyzer is currently a 64-bit application and in the future VISION 7 will be a 64-bit application, which can utilize more RAM when available. More RAM will generally result in a better user experience when running these applications.
 Processor VISION should run with any processor supported by the version of Windows being used. For best performance, ATI recommends the highest-performance processor that your budget allows. VISION should run with any processor supported by the version of Windows operating system being used, but higher-performance processors will offer a better user experience when running VISION. 

For best compatibility with other ATI software and the future, ATI recommends a 64-bit processor. Although this isn’t required for running VISION 6.0.5, it is required for VISION Data Analyzer and will be required in the future for VISION 7 and later. 

ATI has the following recommendations for using select high-speed ECU interface applications at full capability: for DAP, a processor with 4 cores running at least 2.5GHz is recommended. For “write trace” applications (future), a processor with 8 cores running ~4GHz or more is recommended.
Storage Approximately 5 GB free space for VISION installation (Including all optional items except for VISION Data Analyzer) For best performance, ATI recommends a solid-state drive (SSD).

You’ll need additional free space to accommodate the way VISION is used at your company. For example, if VISION usage at your company involves the production, use, or storage of large files (such as recorded data files) then you’ll need enough free space to  accommodate that.
 Graphics No special requirementsFor best performance, ATI recommends selecting higher performance graphics card hardware when possible. Although VISION has no special requirements for graphics card hardware, higher performance graphics cards can provide a better user experience for operations such as displaying live data or analyzing recorded data.

All specifications are subject to change without notice.
