Portable equipment in a briefcase type housing for testing voice control
modules. Designed specifically for field failure analysis & restoration
of voice control modules at the customer site. Can read the module flash
memory contents & display in various formats for analysis. Fast programming
equipment can restore all or part of the flash. Extensive test & com
mu nication capabilities include: Bluetooth, fibre optic and Kbus. The
equipment incorporates an internal variable frequency sine wave generator & signal
measurement facilities for audio testing.
Modules Tested
- SWIM - all versions
- SWIM MOST
The SWIM module (Super Wireless Interface Module)
is fitted to some luxury vehicles to give the driver hands free, voice
activated communication with the car & mobile phone. It provides
voice control of various vehicle and phone functions. SWIM MOST
has similar capabilities, but has MOST communications in addition. MOST
(Media Oriented Systems Transport) is a fibre optic communications system
providing an optical multimedia network with in the vehicle.
