Doc. number Revision 2 Classification Title ACUII-06 User Manual Owner Nicklas Andersson Document number 6007-xxx Date 2018-10-15 Revision 1.6 Page 4(14) Introduction The ACUII-06 is a connectivity ECU that is factory fitted in cars. It provides following functionality:
Diagnostics - routing of diagnostics data between the vehicle and external test equipment, via CAN, Ethernet and WLAN. WLAN access point - for people inside the vehicle. Data gateway - for the WLAN access point and other ECUs in the vehicle. Positioning information - for other ECUs in the vehicle, such as the navigation system. Telematics applications - like emergency calls, breakdown calls and stolen vehicle tracking. The ACUII-06 has an integrated 2G/3G/4G modem that provides data connection and voice call functionality needed for the different applications.

The product supports dual-band 802.11b/g/n at 2.4GHz and 802.11a/n/ac at 5GHz. Supported channels are listed below. When the product is installed in a vehicle the useable channels are limited to what is allowed in the current country. 4.3.1 Supported bands 4.3.1.1 802.11b Parameter Channels Data rates 4.3.1.2 802.11g 1-11 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps Parameter Channels Data rates 1-11 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps 4.3.1.3 802.11n Parameter Channels Data rates 1-11 (2.4GHz), 36-165 (5GHz) MCS0-MCS7 Classification Title ACUII-06 User Manual Owner Nicklas Andersson Document number 6007-xxx Date 2018-10-15 Revision 1.6 Page 8(14) 4.3.1.4 802.11a Parameter Channels Data rates 4.3.1.5 802.11ac Parameter Channels Data rates 36-165 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps 36-165 MCS0-MCS9 Classification Title ACUII-06 User Manual Owner Nicklas Andersson Document number 6007-xxx Date 2018-10-15 Revision 1.6 Page 9(14) 5 Mechanical design Figure 1 Mechanical design Classification Title ACUII-06 User Manual Owner Nicklas Andersson Document number 6007-xxx Date 2018-10-15 Revision 1.6 Page 10(14) 6 Functional Description 6.1 Diagnostics 6.1.1 DoIP connection Interface to diagnostics functionality is via the DLC Ethernet interface. This interface should be connected to DoIP interface in the vehicle, located in the OBD connector. When test equipment is connected to the OBD Ethernet port in the vehicle, the ACUII-06 presents itself on the network using a Vehicle Announcement Message, as specified in ISO 13400-2. Based on the content of this message, an external tester tool can connect to the ACUII-06 and create a diagnostic session. 6.1.2 CAN connection The can interface of ACUII-06 should also be connected to the OBD connector in the vehicle. To communicate with the ACUII-06 and the ECUs behind the ACUII-06 in the vehicle topology, the diagnostic requests shall be sent with 29-bit addressing. The same CAN interface is used for legislated ODB diagnostics. For such purposes, 11-bit addressing is used. 6.1.3 WLAN Diagnostics functionality is also available via WLAN. The unit ca be set in a mode where it acts like a WLAN station and attaches to a hotspot in the workshop. 6.2 WLAN access point ACUII-06 can act as a WLAN access point for passengers in the car. User interface needs to be implemented in an external unit, e.g. in a head unit with display. The WLAN access point functionality is controlled via IHU Ethernet interface. Data gateway ACUII-06 acts as a data gateway for the WLAN access point and other ECUs in the vehicle. It can e.g. provide internet connectivity for the head unit. The data gateway is controlled via the IHU Ethernet interface. Positioning information The product automatically outputs GNSS raw position data on the CAN bus. The GNSS data is used by other ECUs in the vehicle, for instance the Navigation system Telematics applications The product hosts a number of telematics applications. Some examples:

A voice call is also set up to the call center. 6.5.2 Manual emergency call It is also possible to start an emergency call manually by pressing a SOS button for at least 2 seconds. A service that has been initiated can be cancelled by pressing the EXIT button within 10 seconds. 6.5.3 Roadside assistance call Another button for roadside assistance will send data message and set up a voice call to a predefined road side assistance number. A service that has been initiated can be cancelled by pressing the EXIT button within 10 seconds. Theft Warning The call center and the car owner is contacted with a data message if the car alarm indicates the car is being stolen. Stolen Vehicle Tracking The call center can initiate tracking of the car if it has been reported stolen. The vehicle location will then be reported to the call center. 6.5.4 6.5.5 6.5.6 Remote Vehicle Imobilization If the car has been reported stolen the call center can instruct the car not to start. 6.5.7 Remote door unlock The call center or the car owner can unlock the car remotely. 6.5.8 Other applications With data provided from ACUII-06 it is also possible to build applications in e.g. mobile phones to be used by the car owner. Examples:
Vehicle location (present car location on a map) Status check (if service is needed) Instrument panel information (show e.g. mileage, fuel level) 7 7.1 7.2 Classification Title ACUII-06 User Manual Owner Nicklas Andersson Document number 6007-xxx Date 2018-10-15 Revision 1.6 Page 12(14) Installation and maintenance Installation The product is factory fitted in vehicles. It is not possible to buy this product separately. Maintenance The status of the product can be read via diagnostic connections using special workshop tools. In addition, other ECUs monitor the communication from the product and in case of missing/invalid communication, the Central Electronic Module in the vehicle is alerted, and will display a warning to the driver. Maintenance and replacement of the product can only be performed by certified workshops.
