Tools for development

During the process of developing embedded systems, situations can often arise in which a small auxiliary tool could contribute to an increase in efficiency and quality improvement. However, such tools are often not available on the market or are not suitable after a cost/benefit analysis.

Image assistant

The image assistant is a tool that facilitates the calculation of checksums and patching of absolute files (image). In this way, an automated process can be facilitated in which the image contains a product identification, a pre-calculated checksum and potentially also serial numbers.

 

An interface (see photo) simplifies the development and verification of the checksum through a visualization of the image, the checksum parameters and the simple and intuitive modification of the parameters.

CANopen config

The object directory of a CANopen device is its central element. It can be called externally via the CANopen protocol. The EDS file (Electronic Data Sheet) and the documentation describe this object directory.

We have created a tool that manages the object directory in an XML database and can generate any number of output files through a generator. The number and the content of the files can be controlled by the user with the help of templates. In this way, the consistency of the CANopen stack's source code, the respective documentation and the EDS file can be guaranteed.
