Vehicle Spy Specifications

Vehicle Spy Application	Vehicle Spy allows simultaneous monitoring and transmission on multiple vehicle networks. These networks can have different vehicle network protocols. Custom tabs allow for quick maneuvering between screens Save and recall Vehicle Spy setup files Vehicle Spy Logon manages multiple users, keeps track of your last 100 setup files, and manages the data directories C Code Interface for coding more complicated functions Access to GPS (Global Positioning System) Message discovery function with message monitor allows a user to reverse engineer message strategies Online help with step-by-step tutorials
Messages View	Displays message text descriptions Displays all signals contained in a message such as RPM, Pedal Position, Vehicle Speed, etc. Include and exclude filters based on Network, Node, Message, and Data Type Displays all networks in the same monitor Pause and review history Absolute and relative time display Storage and Review of Data Files in an Excel compatible format which includes message descriptions and signals Post acquisition filtering and analysis Hexadecimal, Decimal, Binary and ASCII data displays Color Filters based on Message, Network, or Node Buffer History is limited only by system memory - allows history lengths of greater than a million messages Custom fonts and colors Bus load display Display formats include hex, decimal, ASCII, and binary Activity Coloring: Messages and Signals that are not present are grayed out. Messages and Signals that are received toggle from black to dark red every time they are received. Data byte change highlighting. Every time a message byte changes it is highlighted blue. This allows detection of message changing status. Sort the monitor based on any message part Copy Messages to Message Editor quickly through right-click menu
Message Editor	Received Messages and Transmit Messages organized into separate tables Online interactive editing (you don't have to stop Vehicle Spy or go "offline"!) Specify Message with byte, nibble or bit resolution for entire message Select Database button to quickly load a message or signal from the database Calculate a binary, state encoded, text, and analog signal from a message with an arbitrary equation. Custom binary and analog formats including binary, hex, engineering, and scientific notation. Link to a Transmit Message on any network allows auto response or transmit on change functionality Calculated signal type allows a sinusoidal, ramping and custom equation signal generation Expected Length input verifies a message's length Specify based on message properties such as errors or bus events Selectable color specification per message Cut, copy, paste and sort messages and signals
Transmit Panel	Transmit Messages defined in Message Editor View are automatically listed in the Transmit Panel Transmitted Message data can be calculated from messages and signals, received or otherwise Periodic message transmission Manual transmit button included as part of the pane,
Graphical Panels	Build your own custom application with panels that have controls and indicators Controls and indicators include the following: Chart, Transmit Button, Function Block Button, On/Off Button, Knob, Meter, LED/Light, Text Display, Text Entry, Numeric Entry, Graphical Display, Dropdown List, Barograph, Grid, Action Button, and Scrolling Monitor Charts X vs Y and Y vs T Dropdown control for State Encoded parameters such as PRNDL or Power Mode Action Button allows printing of panel, switching panels, and access to the user's data directory Graphical display allows colored lines and custom graphics, such as logos, on the panel Each user interface item has many properties allowing customization Visual Studio style property editor
Networks	Supports any number of networks Selectable color specification per network Network Stats for CAN and J1850 networks including: message count, message rate, message rate max, bus utilization, and bus utilization max.
Nodes	Supports any number of Nodes Nodes can come from different networks Selectable color specification per node Nodes Stats for CAN and J1850 networks including: message count, message rate, message rate max, bus utilization, and bus utilization max.
Function Blocks	Replay of captured network traffic back with optional filter Custom script which has script commands: Jump to step, Transmit Message, Wait a specific amount of time, wait for a specific equation to be true, (trigger, start, stop, save) another function block, set an incoming message to value or equation, reset a messages stats, stop script, show a graphical panel, jump to a step if an equation is true, and more. Capture a network buffer with pre-post triggering based on an arbitrary equation Automatically save network traffic with unique file naming Actuate a digital output based on an event Transmit a group of messages with a programmable inter-message delay and offset Start, stop, and trigger the Function Block based on equations or other function blocks Create as many function blocks as you require
Databases	Load external database that can define the messages received and transmitted on the vehicle network Databases allow automatic description and display of messages and signals Allows quick entry into the Message Editor DBC and UEF file formats for import and export support Each network can have a separate database
Diagnostics	Builds and Launches diagnostic requests Uses database to decode diagnostic responses Data returned in easy to understand text and raw message format
VehicleScape DAQ	Collects and logs different types of message data: Normal Messages, GMLAN, ISO14229, CCP, XCP, or custom defined signals Configure PC logging to store collected information to the PC Build a standalone logging script through a few simple setup dialogs Set up multiple collections with different trigger conditions Gateway signal data to new frames for other devices Configure standalone setups for Wireless neoVI
