Appendix D: Setting Up ETAS INCA for ECM Modules
Hardware Setup: Using ETAS ES591.1
1.
Connect the power port to a power source between 6V and 32V.
2.
Connect the Ethernet port directly to the Ethernet port on your PC. This port does not
use an internet/intranet connection like a router.
3.
Connect either the CAN1 or CAN2 port to a CAN network (i.e. ECM modules or
display heads).
Software Setup: Using ETAS INCA V5.4.1, Hotfix 22, GM Install
1.
Double click the INCA V5.4 icon to open the software.
2.
Create a new Database
. In the Database menu, select New. Give your database a
name (i.e. a folder name). In INCA, a Database means the current working directory.
Each project is created in a unique directory. When INCA is opened, it will default to
the last Database that was used.
3.
Add a new Workspace
. Right click on the “DEFAULT” folder icon, select Add >
Workspace. You can rename it to whatever you want.
4.
Add a new dbc file for your project.
Right click on the workspace you created in
step 3, select Add > Can-DB. Browse to your dbc file and click open. In this
example, we are using a file named test8mod.dbc. An INCA log window will pop up.
You can ignore this.
