2 Hardware Description
This chapter provides you with an overview of the ES511.1 with information
on the housing, serial number, ports and LEDs.
2.1 Modules of the ES51x Line
The ES51x line is a range of powerful measurement and interface modules. All
modules and the relevant cables are intended for use in the lab, on the test
bench and in the passenger cell of vehicles.
The ES511.1 module has an upstream Ethernet interface that guarantees data
exchange with the host PC. The ES51x modules have three downstream Ether-
net interfaces that can be connected with ES51x, ES600, measurement and
interface modules.
Fig. 2-1 ES511.1 View of the Device
Individual measurement, calibration and rapid prototyping modules are easy to
combine with ES51x line modules. ECUs that have an XETK, or ECUs that have
their own Ethernet interface can be connected directly with an ES51x module
and communicate with INCA via Ethernet.
If necessary, systems can be cascaded using ES51x nodes. The Ethernet switch
guarantees the time-synchronous sampling of all measurement channels –
even in sizeable module networks.
