FlexRay Analyser
Function Overview
(470kB) >>>The receive module of the FlexRay Analyser provides the online display of the FlexRay messages (raw data). The messages can be displayed in scroll and overwrite mode. In scroll mode the FlexRay messages are displayed with timestamp, ID, cycle and channel number. In the overwrite mode the messages are displayed sorted in order of either the identifier, the channel number or FlexRay cycle and are updated by the latest messages received.
The FlexRay Analyser displays and stores the messages as specified in a Fibex project database structured with message name, cycle number, ID and channel number. Static and dynamic messages are tagged differently. As a special feature, the receive module highlights the contents of a message which has changed in order to make the changes obvious.
The message status vector is also displayed and interpreted. The receive module provides filter functions for selecting and displaying data with respect to message content, cycles, IDs or channel number.
The trace module allows the online logging of the entire FlexRay communication on hard disk. The received messages (with timestamp, cycle number, ID and channel) as well as relevant errors are recorded for offline evaluation. The trace module has a manual start/stop function and a trigger/filter mode. Recorded messages can be converted to various formats. The multibus functionality of the FlexRay analyser (option MultibusAnalyser) allows the user to analyse FlexRay and CAN systems synchronously.

The signal module enables the interpretation of the signals transmitted in a FlexRay message. Similar to the receive module, a scroll and an overwrite mode is available for displaying the interpreted signals. The display can be completely customised in order to meet the users requirements.
Furthermore, the signal module provides a cycle time monitoring. The data
interpretation rules are provided according to the ASAM Fibex data description standard.
The FlexRay Analyser can also be operated as a network node providing the transmission of pre-defined messages. The message contents can be transmitted once or cyclically for stimulation of other network nodes.
