CAN Flash a S19 File

At the moment we flash ECUs using CANalyzer providing an S19 file.  The file structure is very standard and layed out here.
I was wondering if there is an NI tool or a tool someone has written that allows me to flash modules over CAN using an S19 file, with NI hardware?  I've used the ECU Measurement toolkit and I don't think it has that functionality.  The Automotive Diagnostic Command Set mentions in the description that it can be used for "flashing ECU firmware".  But none of the functions mentioned in the manual looks like it can do what I want.  Looking at the file structure I feel like I can get the majority of it working without a problem but would rather just use an NI tool if one exists.

Solved!

Turns out we use CCP, and a Motarola S19 to flash our modules which is awesome because of the shipped example.  Unforntunaly we don't use an A2L file.  We use some kind of CAPAL script within CANalyzer and it uses a config file that defines which ArbIDs to use for the transfer.  This means I can't use the shipped example as it is.  But I can use the part of the code that parses the S19 file into the chunks.  And I can look at a CAN trace when a module is being flashed, and with those two pieces of information I believe I can perfrom the same operations we are doing now with LabVIEW.
BTW for those interested in this, the part of the example in the ECU MC toolkit that does the S19 parsing is unprotected and doesn't require a toolkit.  The part of the code that requries the toolkit is the part that actually talks over CAN to do the work.

  • (How can we) Import Flash Professional .FLA file format?

    How can we import a Flash Professional .fla file format into Flash Catalyst? It would appear that we can't...at least not yet! I have added this as a feature request within the adobe labs site for Catalyst. Someone at Adobe suggested that I also explore the forums, so here we are. If you would also like to have this feature added, please let Adobe know by promoting the
    idea.
    Our use case is this: we have a large Flash file with a library of over one thousand skins and assets that were built in Flash with Adobe's Flex Skins Templates. These stateful, graphical skins were used within a custom theme by several Flex 3 projects.
    Now that we are looking to migrate to FlashBuilder 4, and start to use Spark components, we are trying to find a workflow that allows us to use Adobe tools and to reuse our existing vector artwork. Since we have such a large number of assets, we are exploring various approaches, including the use of JSFL. So far we haven't found a good way to migrate from Flash-built skins for Flex 3 to Catalyst-built skins for FlashBuilder 4.

    Hi Ajay,
    See attached V 7.0 example...
    Hope it helps,

  • Flash cs3 unexpected file format ... how can I open this .fla??

    Hi there,
    Someone sent me a .fla file that I can't seem to get opened in my Flash CS3 program.  I think it's because it was made in CS4 which isn't backwards compatible with CS3.
    So, now I'm wondering if there is a way I can open the .fla file in CS3.  Better yet, is there some kind soul here that could possibly open the .fla in CS4, and save it as a CS3 and send it back to me?
    I would normally just ask the guy to do this himself but he left on vacation today and I haven't had a chance to try and open the file until now.
    Thanks
    Mike

    upload your fla and post a link.

  • Can I save my files to a flash drive?

    How can I save my files to a thumb drive?

    Hi !@#$%^&*()_+ (I hear ya!),
    Are you referring to files stored in your Acrobat.com online account? If so, you can log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files and select the files that you want to download/save to a flash drive. By default, they should download to your Downloads folder. From there, you can move them on to a flash drive.
    Best,

  • I can't open PDF files with adobe flash player

    I have installed it and whenever I try to open pdf files it says I need to agree with your liscens and you do that automatically when you download it. I have followed all your instructions on your website and uninstalled it and installed again, but I can't open pdf files with it. I don't know what the problem is exactly, but it's really frustrating..

    Flash Player CANNOT open PDFs because they AREN'T Flash Documents.
    Adobe Reader opens PDFs.
    To accept the license agreement (NOT the one you accepted to download or install - the one for USE)
    Windows:
    Go to: C/Program Files(x86)/Adobe/Reader 11.0/Reader and double click the eula.exe file. The license agreement will open for you to accept.
    Mac:
    Go to: Mac HD/Applications and double click the Reader app. The license agreement will open THE FIRST TIME you open it.

  • How can I import SVG file to Flash CS5.5

    I want to import a .SVG file that I made in Inkscape to Flash CS5.5 how do I do this? Do I need to install some type of plugin/extension? Is there some way around it?

    Actually no, that's incorrect. Flash CS5.5 can NOT import PS/EPS. I've seen a few threads mentioning this, but it's not the case (maybe older versions supported that?).
    The list of supported file formats can be found here;
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/supported-file-formats-flash-professional.html
    To import PS/EPS, you'd need to convert it first through another tool, such as Illustrator.

    Apple dropped playback support for .swf formats in QuickTime almost ten years ago.
    Adobe Flash Player is the only way to view them.

  • Why I can't import AI files into Flash CC?

    I used to work with CS5 and I had no problem importing files, but with the CC version, simply the images didn't appear... I don't understand why.
    Should I change something in preferences? It seems as if Flash doesn't recognise the ai files

    Test out if you can directly copy ai files to the clipboard and paste it in flash.
    There should pop up a dialogue, where you get 4 options.
    The first one will convert the ai to bmp., which you rarely want.
    the lower three imports the drawing as vector.

  • Can't Open .flv Files in Flash Player

    I have Flash and Flash Player 9 on my Mac OS v.10.4.11. I
    cannot open any .flv files with the player. Many are files that I
    encoded with the Adobe Flash CS3 Video Encoder. When I double-click
    on an .flv file, it opens the player, but no file. Same if I try to
    open the file from within the player.
    Anybody know what could be the problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    That is because you can't open FLV files.
    You can import them into an FLA for playback. Or you can
    publish a swf that dynamically loads the FLV and plays it back, but
    you will need to either use a Playback component or use
    Actionscript to do that.

  • I can't open video file in the page , i download and install flash many time but don't work , i use firefox 5 and windows 7

    i can't open video file in the page , i download and install flash many time but don't work , i use Firefox 5 and windows 7

    My current version of Chrome is having problems, too! It's so annoying. Anyone have any suggestions now? I basically can't view or download any PDFs because of this.
    Does anyone else think this is a problem not only with Adobe? I would think Apple would have something to do with this? Wouldn't they get some idea from the developer versions that no browser can open PDFs while running Lion!? Pretty bad customer service on the part of a company that prides itself on being VERY customer-friendly. Wouldn't you say?

  • Why does "only" my Adobe flash profession CS6 can't export avi. file?

    Why does Adobe flash profession CS6 can't export avi. file?
    but when I watch Youtube video, there are avi file format option in CS6!!!!!!!
    Can anybody help me?
    WHY?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Flash uses the Adobe Media Converter to create the video output. If you select the "Use Media Converter" option after selecting to output to Quicktime, and, if your computer has the AVI codec installed, you should be able to export to an AVI file.
