• Function Blocks - Function Block Scripting is a step-by-step graphical approach to scripting. With Function Blocks you simply select a list of actions from a set of options for each step. This scripting approach is designed for people who's main technical focus is not programming. Function Blocks offer the same power as other scripting languages but is easier to learn and apply. You can also download Function Blocks into real-time hardware like the neoVI-FIRE or neoVI-RED for stand-alone (no PC) real-time operation.
• Java - Vehicle Spy offers a built-in Java environment that includes single step debugging and variable watch and evaluation.

Our data logging capable hardware like the neoVI-FIRE or neoVI-RED enables you to setup stand-alone CCP/XCP data logging. The data logging capability can also include normal mode CAN traffic at the same time as CCP/XCP data. All data are automatically time aligned with one another and time stamped with a Real-Time clock.

Included in the single price of Vehicle Spy are J1939 features listed below:

• Address Manager - The J1939 Address Manager in Vehicle Spy, enables you to view all claimed address on the J1939 BUS. With this view you can also setup Vehicle Spy to claim its own address.
• DTC Monitor / Simulator - With the J1939 DTC Monitor / Simulator, you can view all active DM1 messages on the J1939 BUS. It is also possible to simulate multiple ECU's DTCs. You only need to enter an ECU address and a list of SPNs for each ECU. Vehicle Spy takes care of all J1939 Transport messages (long messages) necessary for transmission.
• J1939 BAM and CTS/RTS Messages - Vehicle Spy enables you to transmit and receive J1939 transport layer messages with no scripting. Simply setup a message in Vehicle Spy's built in Database Editor (DBC editor) called the Messages Editor with the appropriate parameters.
