The AL-2010 (Bus Switch Board) provides fault insertion on all common interfaces used in a vehicle. This includes both serial interfaces such as Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, Automotive Ethernet ext. and bus interfaces such as CAN, LIN and Flexray

Four connectors are available at the front of the board (Connector 1-4) to be connected to the ECU. The connectors can also be used in other configurations pending the interfaces used in the test setup.

AL-2010 provides fault insertion for 8 serial (2-pair) communication channels (Channel C1-C8) and adapters (options) for Automotive Ethernet converter, Automotive Ethernet HUB and LIN sensor emulator.

For bus interfaces the AL-2010 supports up to four channels each channel distributed to four DUT outputs.

The AL-2010 provides four buses, each to be connected to four ECU interfaces, those buses can be linked by software control providing other configurations such as two buses to 8 ECU interfaces or 1 bus to 16 ECU interfaces. Each bus can be terminated (120 ohm) at the end by software.

For the serial interfaces the AL-2010 board provides fault insertion features such as:

• Connect / Disconnect
• Short (between lines) or Normal
• Fault insertion of HI or Lo signal to + or –

• Hardware in the Loop (HIL) testing
• Fault insertion on communication buses
• Create multiple bus nodes configuration and by software test different ECUs.
• Increase test automation possibility
