Area5 Assignment Editor

The Area5 Assignment Editor can be found under the Assignment tab and allows the user to create new assignments for Area5 ECU memory segment read-outs. This page will guide you through the basics of using the editor.

Choosing a Signal Source

Choose a Vehicle Profile to base the Area5 assignment on and click create new assignment in the bottom right, or simply double click the vehicle profile.

If the selected Vehicle Profile has multiple A2L-files defined per ECU, a prompt will pop up where it is possible to choose which A2L-file to use per ECU. It is also possible to leave ECUs without a file, the ECU will then simply not be used in this assignment. See Figure 1.
