Ethernet Live Monitor optimizes fault analysis in real time
The large quantities of audio and video data (A/V) in vehicle models currently under development push data recording systems to their limits. As a result, loggers can no longer record permanently and therefore only analyze audible or visible errors. With the Ethernet Live Monitor, Ruetz enables customers to monitor Ethernet data traffic live and completely, explains Wolfgang Malek, CEO and co-founder of Ruetz. If the device detects a deviation, it triggers the data logger, which saves the relevant data.
The product is available in two versions: The Ethernet Live Monitor 1000BASE-T uses an external Ethernet-TAP (Terminal Access Point) which stamps the packets near the hardware. The Ethernet Live Monitor 100BASE-T1 has already integrated this TAP.
The test engineer only needs a PC to configure and display the live streams and their evaluations. The Live Monitor can be easily integrated into existing test systems or test vehicles for in system diagnosis by AVB/TSN.
The Ethernet Live Monitor automatically detects irregularities and inaudible and visible errors. In addition, it sends an error description to the data logger and stores it in the stored traces for subsequent, effective error analyses. In the following analysis, the test engineer then already knows what he has to look for and at what point in time. In addition, data loggers require less storage space.
