Functionality Overview

Functionality	Description
General	Efficient fixed-point or floating-point production code directly from Simulink®/Stateflow® (with support for included MATLAB code, see optional module) Use of several communication matrices, such as AUTOSAR system description files, FIBEX, DBC, and LDF files within one project Support of end-to-end protection, PDU containers, secure onboard communication, generic CRC/checksum simulation, counter simulation Static Container PDU and Global Time Synchronization support Import of AUTOSAR 4.4- based communication description files Support of communication description files based on AUTOSAR Classic Platform Release R19-11 Import of FIBEX 4.1.2-based communication description files Versatile communication matrix visualization with different views, folding, filtering, searching Easy restbus configuration across communication matrices via drag & drop Selectable and customizable restbus configuration view Tree view and property grid for bus-element-based configuration Table view for multiple-element configuration Configuration of the bus hardware Modeling-tool-independent model interface (model port blocks) Support of Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) Convenient update of existing configurations with new communication matrices Export of bus configurations as bus configuration containers for import into VEOS Secure Onboard Communication (SecOC) inspection and manipulation PDU RX status for simulation
LIN	Send and receive of unconditional, event-triggered and sporadic frames/PDUs Generation of LIN schedules
CAN / CAN FD	Triggered/cyclic send and receive of CAN / CAN FD frames/PDUs Support of multiplexed PDUs CAN / CAN FD Frame Gateway Support for SAE J1939 vehicle bus standard, e.g., for commercial and off-highway vehicles and communication between the vehicle and charging station
Bus Manipulation and Inspection (Bus Manager Plus additionally required)	Signal value based access to ISignals Overwrite value of an ISignal with a user-defined value Add offset to the value of an ISignal Access the payload of a PDU in raw data format Inspect the status of a received PDU Manipulate the payload length of a CAN frame Suspend the transmission of a frame
