ES512 FlexRay Network Module

The ES512 FlexRay Network Module offers the calibration of ECUs via XCP-on-FlexRay as well as FlexRay Monitoring. In addition, the ES512 facilitates the retrieval of accurate time synchronized data from both ECU and FlexRay bus.

S400 and ES63x devices in Daisy Chain configuration that are connected to an ES512 module are displayed under the Daisy Chain Modules system in the tree view of the Hardware Configuration Editor.
XETK devices that are connected to an ES512 module are displayed under the Ethernet system in the tree view of the Hardware Configuration Editor.

System limits

The ES512 has the following interfaces:

This module is available for configuration only if the INCA-FlexRay add-on is also installed.

INCA supports up to eight ES512 modules simultaneously.

Regardless of which interfaces you use, you have to set global parameters for the ES512. These settings then apply to all integrated interfaces.

Module parameters

Enter any name for the system.

Shows the serial number read from the device.

If the hardware is not connected or if it was not found during the hardware search, enter the complete number by hand (it can be found on the device).

The serial number must be entered as it is needed by INCA to identify the device. The serial number is stored in the hardware configuration.

Enter an internal name of the device. It is stored in the device like the serial number and helps you to distinguish between devices of the same type. By assigning a unique name which expresses the role of the device, it can be used more conveniently than the serial number, especially when you link the devices in the Hardware Mapping dialog box. The alias name is used, for example, if you switch between different vehicles when measuring with the laptop or if you have installed different devices of the same type in the vehicle.

Shows the firmware version of the connected hardware module.

Shows the hardware connection between the hardware and the PC.

You cannot edit this field.
