The standalone solution for flashing ECU
The FlashboxX ECO is a multi-purpose hardware device specifically designed for flashing ECUs in vehicles. With its robust Linux-based environment and a wide range of interfaces, it offers a universal solution for flashing ECUs in various vehicles. Using the FlashboxX ECO has proven to be extremely efficient and time-saving, especially for large quantities.
Functions of the FlashboxX ECO:
Dual-channel flashing
The device has two independent channels that can be used to flash two control units simultaneously. This saves a considerable amount of time, especially in production environments.
Support for various bus systems
The FlashboxX ECO supports interfaces such as CAN, CAN-FD, 100BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-TX for flashing. Other bus systems can be integrated via the USB port.
Linux-based software environment
The FlashboxX ECO runs on a Linux-based platform that offers users full control over the configuration and customization of flash processes. Individual adaptations to special requirements are possible and can either be ordered directly or implemented by you.
Connections for visualization and peripherals
The device has an HDMI port for extended visualizations and several USB ports for additional peripheral devices. Thanks to the customizable Linux-based environment, these ports and devices can be flexibly integrated and configured for specific use cases.
Integrated testing and data logging
Once the flash process is complete, the system automatically checks whether the process has been successfully completed. In addition, data can be logged and stored for documentation purposes, facilitating traceability and quality control.
Integrated status LEDs
Clear feedback on the flash process is provided by the status LEDs so that the user can easily recognize the current status.
Benefits for the customer:
Time and cost efficiency
Thanks to the dual-channel function, two control units can be flashed in parallel, thus drastically reducing throughput times in production processes. This saves both time and resources.
Easy to handle
The FlashboxX ECO is also easy to operate for non-technical users, as the status LEDs provide clear feedback. The flash process can also run unattended without any problems, enabling greater efficiency in the workflow.
Flexible customization options
The Linux-based software can be customized to meet specific customer requirements. This requires development work, but offers the flexibility to tailor the solution to different use cases.
No ongoing license fees
FlashboxX ECO is a one-time investment with no ongoing license costs, making it a cost-effective solution for large ECU flash operations.
Flexible use in development and production
The FlashboxX ECO can be used in various phases of development and production. It therefore offers a flexible solution that adapts to the respective requirements in the production process.
Use cases for the FlashboxX ECO:
Control units: Development flashing
The FlashboxX ECO is ideal for flashing ECUs in the development phase. It ensures improved stability of the flash processes and optimally prepares development ECUs. A typical example of its use is the HiL farm (hardware-in-the-loop test environments), where precise ECU programming is essential.
Control units: production flashing
In production, the FlashboxX ECO demonstrates its strength by being able to flash two ECUs simultaneously. This capability significantly reduces cycle times and increases production throughput, resulting in more efficient and cost-effective production.
Control units: Warehouse flashing
For control units that are already in the warehouse, the FlashboxX ECO enables the prompt installation of necessary software updates before delivery. This is particularly important for late software changes that become necessary due to bug fixes or safety-relevant updates.
Vehicles: Production flashing
During vehicle production, the FlashboxX ECO can be used to update control units to the latest software version “just in time”. This procedure enables late adjustments and updates, which further increases the efficiency of the production line.
