Vehicles often wait in large yards before delivery while their software continues to evolve. Manufacturers must therefore ensure that every vehicle is updated to the latest version before it reaches retailers and customers. Up to now, this has been a time-consuming process: technicians have to visit each vehicle individually, adapt different updates and document the results manually.
Fast software updates for large vehicle fleets
The DSA solution PRODIS.YardFlash simplifies this process considerably. In a cloud-based platform, campaigns can be used to define which ECU in which vehicle receives which software. Updates are carried out directly on the yard with mobile flash devices on several vehicles at the same time, while the system automatically and centrally records all results. This means that even the software of large vehicle fleets can be updated quickly and efficiently before delivery.
PRODIS.YardFlash combines cloud-based control, mobile execution and centralised documentation in a single solution. Vehicle manufacturers benefit from a fast, secure and cost-efficient update process. Either directly in the factory yard or at ports and distribution centres.
The advantages at a glance:
Campaign-based updates: Manufacturers define in the cloud which ECUs in which vehicles are to be updated.
Efficient execution: Multiple flash devices in a portable box enable parallel updates directly on the vehicle.
Centralised documentation: All results are immediately available and transparent.
Scalability: Even large vehicle fleets can be updated fast and reliably – even when vehicles are offline.
DSA offers PRODIS.YardFlash as a combination of hardware (purchase or rental), cloud access (SaaS) and services. This can include the preparation of sequences, the installation of hardware, the deployment of on-site staff and back-office support.
