Intuitive Calibration for Efficiency and Creativity

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.
For a complete list of all the capabilities of VISION, contact your local ATI representative.
VISIONcal

VISION Diagnostics
VISION Diagnostics enables VISION to provide access to OEM level diagnostics that are not available over the standard legislated OBD II. Legislated OBD II - the features that are supported by most OBD II software applications on the market - provides access to a limited number of parameters and modules. In addition to reading and clearing codes, EDT allows users to gain access to extended trouble code descriptions and help information (when available), plus access to hundreds of additional parameters that can viewed in real-time.

- Full integration with VISION’s Data Item Manager, screen controls, and recorders
- Trigger recordings based on diagnostics data
- Auto-detect multiple ECU nodes plus manual override for non-standard Req/Resp ID pairings
- Read live PIDs, INFOTYPEs, Monitors, and request Freeze-frame data
- Request and clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with trigger event expressions
- Generate an ‘all-modes’ snapshot report with trigger event expressions
- Access OEM/User-Defined UDS DIDs (service 0x22) from ODX and MDX files
- UDS Periodic Transmission (service 0x2A) support for recording DIDs
- Extensive service and sub-function access through XML-based Diagnostics via VISION’s COM API
- Scripting capabilities to customize workflows
- Includes comprehensive API documentation, quick-start guide, and a SDK with example source code

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 System | Windows 7 SP2, Windows 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. Although this isn’t required for running VISION 6.0.5, it is currently required for VISION Data Analyzer and will be required in the future for VISION 7 and later. |
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 requirements | For 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. |
