In-Vehicle Networking Technology for Automotive Engineers and Technicians
Training Course Overview
This is an intensive 10 hour training course only requiring candidates to be away from the company for 1 day. Lunch and evening dinner are provided.
It is a training session for candidates requiring in-depth Knowledge on the CAN and LIN use in vehicles and their diagnostics.
The candidates will also get an appreciation of emerging network protocols and how it will affect them. Candidates will be
armed with information to help repair CAN and LIN based vehicles, and be well informed on future technologies.
The agenda consists of:-
Introduction
- In-Vehicle Networking Integration - Why is it used?
- Multiplex classes
CAN Bus Overview
- Waveform patterns and understand the electrical signals
- Clock speed / baud rate
- The content of a CAN message
- Message priority
- Wake up methods
- Gateway ECU's
- Recognition of CAN and other different digital signals (duty cycle and pulse width modulation)
- CAN Failures
- CAN demonstration on bench based network using Jaguar Instrument Pack
CAN Signal Data Formats
- Understand how signals such as Engine Speed are encoded within CAN signal
- Understand CAN databases and differences between Intel and Motorola Formats
- Demonstration on a Ford vehicle including looking at the CAN bus during Key on, normal operation and key-off (i.e. ECUs going to sleep)
Local Interconnect Network (LIN)
- LIN applications - Why LIN?
- Waveform patterns and understand the electrical signals - how to view on oscilloscope
- The content of a LIN message
- LIN message types and schedules
- Comparison of LIN versions used by manufacturers (e.g. understand differences between LIN 1.0 to 1.3, 2.0 to 2.1, AUTOSAR and J2602)
- LIN failures
Infotainment Systems (MOST, IEEE1394 Firewire)
- Overview of technologies
- Applications and architectures
- Future technologies
Future Networks (FlexRay, Safe-by-Wire)
- Why new network standards? Envisaged applications
- Waveform patterns and understand the electrical signals
- Message content
- Network Schedules
- Network Architectures
- Failures
Automotive Diagnostics and CAN
- J1962 Diagnostics Connector and CAN
- Brief Overview of context of CAN, K-Line, KWP2000 and UDS Protocols and Services in relation to CAN
- Diagnostic techniques and fault-finding with regards to CAN faults
- Diagnostic Trouble Codes (U-Codes) versus realtime network data
- CAN failure types and how this is detected
