Product overview

System requirements

Compatible hardware

  • CBEB100.1, ES160.1, ES162.1, and ES165.1 Automotive Ethernet Media Converter

  • ES882.1 and ES886.x ECU Interface Module

PC with one ethernet interface

A PC with one open Ethernet interface (1 Gbit/s or 100 MBit/s, full duplex) with RJ45 connection is required. Ethernet interfaces that are implemented with an additional network card in the PC must feature a 32-bit data bus.

Note  

Half Duplex mode and Half Duplex Ethernet interfaces are not supported.

Requirement to ensure successful initialization of the module

Note  

It is imperative you disable the function which automatically switches to powersaving mode on your PC network adapter when there is no data traffic on the Ethernet interface!

To deactivate the power saving mode

Choose in Windows System Control Center / Device Manager / Network Adapter the used network adapter by double-click. Deactivate the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" option in the "Power Management" register. Confirm your configuration.

The manufacturers of network adapter have different names for this function.

Example:

  • "Link down Power saving".

  • "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

Data emulation and measurement memory

Data emulation memory

Note  

Only the BR_XETK-S3.0A supports external supply emulation memory.

The BR_XETK-S3.0 uses a portion of or up to the entire size of the ED RAM, to emulate data in internal flash. The following table lists the supported microcontrollers, the size of the ED RAM, and states if the ED RAM is capable of being powered using a standby supply.

Measurement data memory

The ED RAM is also used to support other functionalities which reduces the amount of ED RAM available for data emulation. E.g., the page switch mail box and OMD requires typically one tile of ED RAM (64 KB for TC2xx-ED, 256 KB for TC3xx-ED). Trace2Ram requires two tiles of ED RAM (128 KB for TC2xx-ED, 512 KB for TC3xx-ED).

Item
