A method for connecting models of technical systems in a testing device equipped for control unit development having a connection of a first model of a first technical system to a second model of a second technical system. The first model and the second model include a model of a control unit, a model of a technical system to be controlled, or a model of an environment interacting with the control unit or with the technical system to be controlled. The first model has a first data interface and the second model has a second data interface. The method has the provision of a first model hierarchy structure and the provision of a second model hierarchy structure. The method has an automatic configuration of compatible connections so that the first model present in the testing device exchanges data with the second model present in the testing device through compatible connections.

Method for connecting models of technical systems in a testing device equipped for control unit development

A method for configuring a test device set up for testing an electronic control unit by a configuration system, whereby a software model of a technical system is executed in the test device and the software model communicates via an input/output interface of the test device with a device connected to the test device, whereby the configuration system has a first configuration element of a first element type and a second configuration element of a second element type, whereby the configuration elements are assigned properties of the test device with which the communication between the connected device and the software model is configured, wherein sorting of the properties occurs in the configuration system, and the sorting is switchable between the sorting types, namely, a union set sort, intersection sort, and condensing sort.

Method for configuring a test device set up for testing an electronic control unit

A method for connecting an input/output interface of a testing device equipped for testing a control unit to a model of a technical system present in the testing device. The interface connects the control unit to be tested or connects a technical system to be controlled; the model to be connected to the input/output interface is a model of the technical system to be controlled or a model of the control unit to be tested. The testing device has a plurality of input/output functions connected to the model and provides an interface hierarchy structure and a function hierarchy structure. The method has an automatic configuration of compatible connections between the interface hierarchy structure and the function hierarchy structure so that the model present in the testing device communicates through the compatible connections with the control unit to be tested or the technical system to be controlled.
