External Failure Insertion Unit

Upgrade for simulation system

The external FIU can be interconnected between the electronic control unit (ECU) and the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system without further configurations.

The external FIU offers 90, 180 or 270 channels, which can be used for actuator fault simulation and also for sensor fault simulation. The external FIU can optionally be equipped with an integrated break-out box (BoB). You can use the Failure Simulation Module of ControlDesk for designing and controlling the failure patterns.
These failure patterns can be activated and processed with AutomationDesk. You simply integrate the required failure pattern into your test sequence. During the execution of the test sequence, the failure pattern is activated on the ECU.
