EV and EVCC Testing Solution
Vector Informatik provides various charging system testing solutions. Users can complete the testing of the following charging protocols.
CHAdeMO
GB/T
CCS
NACS
Testing Environment
CANoe Option SmartCharging extends CANoe by adding the possibility of simulating the communication behavior of an electric vehicle (EV) or charging station (EVSE) during the charging process. This makes option SmartCharging the ideal tool for setting up a flexible, parameterizable counterpart for validating functionality in developing charging controllers for EVs and EVSEs. In addition to the automatic communication sequence, the individual sending and receiving of predefined communication messages is also possible. This functionality lets you implement test cases easily and conveniently.

CANoe
CANoe is the comprehensive software tool for development, test and analysis of individual ECUs and entire ECU networks in the automotive and various other industries. It supports network designers, development and test engineers throughout the entire development process – from planning to system-level test.
Diverse application areas offer the right support for your project. That is why the versatile CANoe functions and configuration options are successfully used by users worldwide.
CANoe Option . Smart Charging
With this CANoe option for E-Mobility we support all developers of charging ECUs who need a flexible counterpart to secure correct functions. With CANoe.SmartCharging you analyze, simulate and test the communication behavior of an electric vehicle (EV) or a charging station (EVSE) during the charging process.
CANoe Option . Ethernet
The Ethernet option extends CANoe with access to Ethernet networks. The interfaces of the VN5600 family, for example, are used for this purpose. They provide direct access to physical layers such as IEEE 10BASE-T1S, 100BASE-T1 (OABR) and 1000BASE-T1, which are widely used in the automotive environment. In addition, CANoe.Ethernet gives you access to Ethernet-specific protocols such as SOME/IP and SOME/IP-SD as well as IP, TCP, UDP, AVB, RTP and many more.
VTestStudio
vTESTstudio is a powerful development environment for creating automated ECU tests. In order to increase the efficiency in terms of test design and to simplify the reusability it provides either programming-based as well as tabel-based and graphical test notations and test development methods. vTEStstudio can be employed in all product development phases: from model testing right through to system validation. Thanks to the use of open interfaces vTESTstudio can be simply incorporated into existing tool landscapes.
Testing Hardware
VTSystem
With the VT system test systems for the function test of ECUs and vehicle networks can be assembled. CANoe is the associated test automation software.
The modular design of the VT System allows to build test solutions ranging from simple test setups to complex test systems:
VT7970
The VT7970 is a dedicated module for testing smart charging communication according to DIN 70121 and ISO 15118. It can be used to test both electric vehicles (EV) and charging stations (EVSE).
VH5110
With VH5110A – also called “CCS Listener” – you can analyze the communication between a charging station (EVSE) and an electric vehicle (EV) based on CCS and NACS standards. The VH5110A “listens” to the data communicated on the Control Pilot Line (CP) via Powerline Communication (PLC) and converts them into Ethernet packets that are interpreted in CANoe. In addition, the PWM parameters of the basic communication are measured and displayed in CANoe as system variables.
