CANoe Product Concept

CANoe's Key Strength: Customer Centric Solutions

We have been developing and improving CANoe in close cooperation with our many users worldwide. The focus has always been on optimizing product tailoring for the different tasks and applications of our customers. And that's been the case for 30 years.
 
Since 2023 the product editions have supplemented the previous product concept with its variants and options. Our editions expanded the product scope with dedicated product tailoring for new use cases beyond the developer's workstation.

CANoe Editions: Support Different Work Areas

Editions are specially developed to meet your requirements of different working environments and include some stand-alone CANoe products.

  • Desktop

  • Developer workstation

  • Interactive application at the workplace with real hardware connection.

  • Development of pure software systems without real hardware connection. 

For work without a real hardware connection, you only need CANoe DE in the CANoe4SW Desktop Edition specification.

CANoe SE

More information
  • Automation server

  • Pipeline

  • Automated testing in CI/CT environments with and without real hardware access.

  • Remaining bus or environment simulation in automated environments.

For work without a real hardware connection, you only need CANoe Server Editions in the CANoe4SW Server Editions specification.

CANoe Variants: Tailored to Specific Feature Scopes

Variants represent staggered feature scopes of the Desktop and Test Bench editions. They are configured for the special applications as follows:

CANoe Runtime Variant

... is suitable for users who want to quickly and easily test their ECU in interaction with a specified remaining bus simulation. Configurations cannot be changed, analysis functions are fully available and network nodes can be easily connected and disconnected.

CANoe Professional Variant

... is intended for users who want to take advantage of the full range of CANoe functions. Simulation models can be created with CAPL and .NET. Test cases are easy to model with the Test Feature Set.

CANoe Options: Aligned to Standards, Bus Systems and Protocols

Options flexibly extend CANoe with specific functional scopes for a large number of bus systems, higher protocols or for measurement tasks and diagnostic validation. These options are available individually and can be combined as required. Options are available for all editions and their variants.

The CAN option is already included in CANoe. It is also the basis for the other CAN-based protocols J1939, ISO 11783 and CANopen. However, CANoe is also only available with other bus systems without CAN support.

A429

Ideal for the test and analysis of ARINC 429 buses and of individual devices on up to 32 channels. Regardless of whether raw data or physical quantities are required.

NEW: ADAS

The ADAS option provides comprehensive support for analyzing, simulating, and testing your automotive ADAS functions, using either recorded or simulated data.

AFDX

Ideal for testing and analysis of entire AFDX networks as well as individual devices. Regardless of whether raw frames or payload contents are needed.

AMD/XCP

Offers access to the ECU memory. Reading/writing to ECU memory locations is performed via ASAM standardized XCP protocol or CCP protocol. Configuration is done with A2L files.

CAN | A825

Covers most use cases for ARINC 825. The multibus approach lets you simultaneously operate multiple channels, different bus systems e.g. CAN (ARINC 825), A429 (ARINC 429), AFDX® (ARINC 664) and Automotive Ethernet.

CANopen

Powerful tool that supports the entire development process for CANopen networked systems, from planning to development and testing and finally start-up.

Car2x

For application development and function testing of ECUs for vehicles or traffic infrastructure based on V2X application messages.

Connectivity

CANoe.Connectivity extends CANoe with functionality for testing applications based on HTTP/REST, MQTT, Modbus and wireless protocols like BLE, NFC and UWB.

DDS

Enables convenient testing, simulating and analyzing of DDS systems. You create simulations of DDS participants in the shortest possible time and implement extensive tests during the entire development cycle.

DiVa

Automated testing and validation of automotive diagnostic software implementation in the ECUs. Reproducible test cases are generated in CANdela or ODX format.

Electric Motor

Physics-based simulation models of electric motors and components to perform closed-loop HIL tests of Motor Control Units (MCUs).

Ethernet

Extends CANoe with access to automotive Ethernet networks. The interfaces of the VN5600 family, for example, are used for this purpose.

FlexRay

Extends CANoe for analyzing distributed real-time systems.

For EtherCAT

Allows the integration of EtherCAT slaves via up to two integrated EtherCAT® masters. This includes a large number of devices for direct use in CANoe.

ISO 11783

Suitable for the design, diagnostics, and testing of ISO11783-based networks and components.

J1587

The seamless integration of J1587 in CANoe let you interact with these networks in a very simple, quick and reliable way.

J1587

The seamless integration of J1587 in CANoe let you interact with these networks in a very simple, quick and reliable way.

J1939

Well-suited to the development, design and verification of J1939 networks.

LIN

Provides analysis, test and simulation capabilities to support development of LIN ECUs and networks.

Scope

Integrated oscilloscope solution based on an USB oscilloscope hardware for detailed analysis of the physical and data link layer.

NEW: SDC

Simulating and testing SDC (Service-oriented Device Connectivity) participants and distributed SDC use cases in modern medical environments.

Sensor

Easier analysis, simulation and test of the sensor-specific protocols PSI5 (Peripheral Sensor Interface) and SENT (Single Edge Nibble Transmission).

SmartCharging

Analyze, simulate and test the communication behavior of an electric vehicle (EV) or a charging station (EVSE) during the charging process.

NEW: Vehicle and Driver

Ready-to-use models of vehicles, vehicle components and a virtual driver - providing plausible and consistent input signals to your ECU.
