Choosing Memory Segment
When a signal source has been chosen, the view in figure 2 is displayed. Here, all available memory segments are listed, grouped by ECU and A2L file. To choose a memory segment to read out, simply click its row and make sure its checkbox is checked. Multiple segments can be selected.
Selecting communication protocol
In the "Select interface" dropdown, you can select whether to use CCP over CAN or XCP over Ethernet for the Area5 memory segment read-out. If you select XCP, it must be supported by the ECU, otherwise a red warning symbol will be shown. For XCP, there a two further choices: to use XCP over UDP or over TCP. Again, the selection depends on what the ECU supports, which is determined from the A2L file.
