Introduction
7
The ES590 ETK, CAN and K-Line Module, together with the INCA software
(INCA 4 line: version V4.0.5 and higher, INCA 5 line:
V5.1 and higher) is a
powerful, versatile solution for ECU calibration. It can be combined with mod-
ules of the ES6xx range and with SMB modules and devices of the ES1000
range.
The ES590 is also already prepared for integration into the fast Ethernet topol-
ogy which is available with the ES600.
All cable connections of the ES590 are suitable for use in vehicles. The power
supply in the range of 6…32 V and the temperature range of -40…+70° C at
which it works are perfectly suited for use in the vehicle.
1.1
System Requirements
This section tells you which hardware and software are needed to operate your
ES590.
1.1.1
Hardware
The ES590 requires a power supply of 6 to 32 V DC. For complete technical
data of the ES590, refer to Section "Technical Data" on page 15.
The connection to the host PC requires a free Ethernet interface with an RJ-45
socket.
1.1.2
Software
The ES590 is used in conjunction with the INCA software version V4.0.5 and
higher (INCA 4 line) or
V5.1 and higher (INCA 5 line). Running the ES590 with
earlier INCA versions is not possible.
For information on the configuration of the ES590, refer to the INCA Online
Help.
1.1.3
Calibration System
Adaptations have to be made to both the ASAM-2MC file and the ECU pro-
gram used to use the fast ETK interfaces (block mode with 8/100 MBit). For
more detailed information and a specification of the DAMC4 interface, please
do not hesitate to contact ETAS.
note
Carefully check the software version numbers and cable names. Wrong software
versions and cables could impair the proper functioning of your ES590 or dam-
age the ES590 and the connected devices.
