ICON Technologies supplied Westport Innovations Australia with an End-Of-Line (EOL) system to test a locally designed gas Engine Control Unit (ECU) that is manufactured under license in India.
The test system implements CAN-based command and response communications to the DUT. It:
• Downloads an embedded test suite to the ECU;
• Issues test commands, and configures external loads as required;
• Monitors the expected and actual response from the ECU for up to 90 IO points; and
• Provides a GUI status for each DUT, together with a fully detailed pass/fail report for each IO point.
For each ECU that is passed the test system deploys and verifies the shipping version of the embedded software suite, and finalises all associated documentation including serial numbers, barcodes, and conformance certificates.
The Test System manages a single test line, with the facility to test different shipping ECU versions as required.
