6 2.2 General Description Safety Notice Calibration activities influence the behavior of the ECU and the systems controlled by the ECU. This may result in unexpected behavior of the vehicle and thus can lead to safety critical situations. Only well trained personnel should be allowed to perform calibration activities. Sending CAN messages influences the behavior of the CAN bus network and the systems connected to it. This may result in unexpected behavior of the vehicle and thus can lead to safety critical situations. Only well trained personnel should be allowed to perform CAN message sending activities. Calibrate measurement (Write to RAM) activities influence the behavior of the ECU and the systems controlled by the ECU. This may result in unexpected behavior of the vehicle and thus can lead to safety critical situations. Only well trained personnel should be allowed to perform calibrate measurements activities Known Issue Reports If a product issue develops, ETAS will prepare a Known Issue Report (KIR) and post it on the internet. The report includes information regarding the technical impact and status of the solution. Therefore you must check the KIR applicable to this ETAS product version and follow the relevant instructions prior to operation of the product. The Known Issue Report (KIR) can be found here: System Prerequisites Same like the included INCA refresh, hotfix and add-on installations and INCA related SW.
