Diagnostic for off-highway machines

Diagnostic environment • Diagnose complete machine as “Full-Service-Strategy”

- Service by manufacturer itself and dealer network - Using standard notebooks and equipment

• Using machine network and standard interfaces (CAN, USB,...)

Main tasks of diagnostic systems • Detect errors in a machine • Testing electrical components • Dealing with error codes • Machine configuration, parameter setting and downloading • Providing technical documentation

Challenges for tractor – implement combination


• Tractor as Off-highway machine includes extensive systems • Implement differs from tractor system • Tractor has to operate implement functions

Engine diagnostic as part of OEM service

Exhaust regulation for agricultural machines: • History: TIER3 TIER4interim TIER4final Each supplier has its own strategy

• Technology, ECUs, communication protocols • Different DTC handling Different ECUs and diagnostic protocols

• TIER3 K-Line and CAN (J1939, KWP) • TIER4i CAN (KWP) • TIER4f CAN (UDS)



Example: Engines for forage harvester

Full Engine Service strategy for all types of machines • Increasing complexity and efforts • High amount of diagnostic functions Different engine suppliers

Strategies for diagnostic purposes

Most of OEMs have their own diagnostic tool and interface • Usage for off-, onboard and remote diagnostic • Includes all kind of ECUs for aggregates and engines

Integration of external ECUs necessary (e.g. engine ECU) • Precondition: ECU fulfils diagnostic requirement of OEM

- Open issue in discussion with engine supplier ! • Challenges for OEMs

- Software interface mostly different and not changeable - Two possible solutions:

- OEM integrates engine supplier interface with great effort if possible

- Engine supplier performs diagnostics with own service people and tool



Diagnostic development process at CLAAS

Usage of diagnostic standards within CLAAS control units • Specification tool provides information for coding and test • Communication protocol KWP2000 and J1939-73

What about engine diagnostics? • Interface to CLAAS diagnostic system necessary

- Due to different suppliers, emission standards and protocols - Unique gateway for data exchange

• Basic approach: One interface between all systems and suppliers - One face to the customer: CLAAS diagnostic system

• Extendible for D-PDU-API for future use

Different protocols User specific demands

• Download, calibration • Specific engine tests

Experience with generic interface

One interface to diagnostic development system • Using ODX services

Scalable dependent on demands of engine suppliers

Integration of different documentation formats incl. DLLs • Data will be prepared as ODX files by CLAAS • Linked to generic interface

Usage of proprietary and standard protocols as well

Easy and comfortable way of data usage

General demands for ISOBUS products

Support of information about all tested systems

• Publication of conformance test results

- Certification has to be done by the new AEF conformance test tool

- Test will be done by accredited test institutes

• Data about launched ISOBUS products

- Availability about software update/upgrade

Fixed format for data-transfer

Usage of a manufacturer-wide diagnostic tool

Database shall be mandatory for all ISOBUS user


30

Use case database: Automatic compatibility check

Analyze of failing system

• Through dealer or service technician

First source of information

• Component certifications

• Knowledge objects and update/upgrade information

Conclusion – Outlook

Agriculture industry is providing full-service for diagnostics • Using standards is a must Derivates are not sufficient

- Great efforts for integration, often with inadequate documentation

Generic interface is able to add different diagnostic demands • One development environment and easy handling Standardization has to be done more efficient

• Less is often more if everyone uses the “less” completely Entry of high speed networks for fast data transport

• Ethernet, Ethercat,... - Terminals, camera systems, data for task management,....

Applications for Smart phones or tablets
