Sontheim COMfalconModel plus -High-end VCI with LUA Scripting and Linux Operating System

SHARE

Housing and status display: The interface has a robust aluminium housing with protection class IP65. Due to the com­pact design and the high shock resistance COMfalcon® plus can be used in different areas of the automation and automotive in­dus­try. Two 14-segment displays and nine LEDs always indicate the current operating status/error code of the device.

Interfaces

The COMfalcon® plus has a total of four CAN interfaces and a Freescale PowerPC arch­i­tec­ture. The connection to the diagnostic PC is established via WLAN/LAN or bluetooth as an option. In addition to the CAN channels other interfaces such as RS232 or K-Line are available for diagnostic purposes.

LUA scripting

Own embedded applications run directly on the COMfalcon® plus in LUA without the need for a third device (laptop or PC). Among other things, it is possible to store your own in­for­ma­tion such as create and implement flash routines or ECU de­scrip­tions and thus access the CAN or file sys­tem, for example. Furthermore, the em­bed­ded applications are portable and can be reused for future Sontheim VCI gen­er­ations.

Error frame detection

This function enables the monitoring and ob­ser­va­tion of a CAN network. The COMfalcon® plus has its own logic to detect error frames and to count up in a certain inter­nal memory area. This is used to identify intermittently occurring errors such as fake mes­sag­es of a CAN participant.

ID related level measurement – resistance measurement/current measurement

This feature enables the CAN levels to be read in IO-related as well as active and passive termination resistors to be measured and thus, for example, to carry out fault diagnosis on a vehicle or machine. This is particularly important if data is lost from the network, which can be caused by short circuits, for example.
