Modular and Universal Hardware-in-the-Loop Test System

modularHiL is a modular, universal hardware-in-the-loop test system. As an individual module, with its flexible signal conditioning and the use of open industry standards, it is a cost-effective solution for component test stations. Linked together by powerful networking technology, it offers virtually unlimited performance reserves for the testing of individual component subsystems or integrated vehicle simulation.

Top features of modularHiL:

  • Computer nodes networked in real time
  • Modular and scalable due to signal classes
  • Short-circuit and overvoltage-proof signal conditioning
  • Self-test functionality
  • CompactPCI and Intel CPUs
  • Optional Fault Simulation Box (FSB)

Benefits of the modularHiL test system


  • Reduced costs through the use of standard industrial automation components
  • Modular system and re-use mean minimal engineering effort
  • Drawer technology gives optimum access to I/Os and loads

Hardware-in-the-loop technology for the test of telematic components

Telematic systems are state of the art functions and also available for non premium vehicles. The telematic systems of the latest generation stand out due to their compact design and the integration of many functions into one ECU, the so-called head unit (HU). This article describes how Daimler AG technically enhanced a HiL simulator from the comfort and power train section to use it for telematics.
