Automotive Ethernet Interface
The Automotive Ethernet interface of the BR_XETK-S1.0 cannot be connected to a
PC directly, but a media converter has to be inserted in between.
Its purpose is to transform the physical layers of Automotive BroadR Reach Ether-
net (1 differential pair / 2 wires) into Standard Ethernet (2 differential pairs/ 4
wires) and vice-versa. The media converter has to be connected to CON1 (refer to
Fig. 3-4).
The combination of the BR_XETK-S1.0 and the Automotive Ethernet media con-
verter is integrated in the ETAS IP world with automatic IP management and sup-
ports the open automotive "Universal Measurement and Calibration" standard
"XCP on Ethernet" (TCP/IP, UDP/IP).
The open "XCP on Ethernet" interface allows for connecting to the BR_XETK-S1.0
with third party application software.
NOTE
The Automotive Ethernet interface is not compatible with the standard Ethernet
interfaces of ETAS modules. An Automotive Ethernet Media Converter or an
ES88x ECU Interface Module is needed to connect the BR_XETK-S1.0 to the PC.
NOTE
Please see chapter 6.1.2 on page 36 for additional information regarding PC
requirements for the Ethernet interface.
