Networks operating under the FlexRay protocol are complex systems, and implementing them requires specific tools to help with design, testing and final integration. This chapter first presents the classic V‐shaped cycle describing the stages in the development of a system. Then, it describes the DaVinci Network Designer (Point 1 of the V Cycle). The complexity of the communication systems in a vehicle makes a specific environment and methodology necessary to model, simulate, validate, test and do diagnostics on the virtual and real ECUs. The special tool CANalyzer analyses the communications of the real logic controllers via various display windows. The next phase, with all the real logic controllers on the network, corresponds to the test phase of the V cycle. Via CANoe‐API, dynamic link libraries (DLLs) make it possible to access functions for reading or sending messages, signals or other things from the database. controller area networks
