Signal-To-Service Editor

The I_EditorS2S Signal-To-Service Editor supports you in mapping AUTOSAR Classic Signals to AUTOSAR Adaptive Events of Services. The mapping to Signal Groups and Signals is supported for Events and Implementation Data Type Sub-Elements of an Event.
The Signal-To-Service Editor is splitted into two areas, the I_Edit Editor and the Builder.

ISignal to Service Interface

In some cases, an Adaptive Application needs to communicate with a Classic Application, but as Adaptive Applications communicate in a service-oriented manner with Service Interfaces, while Classic Applications communicate in a signal-based manner using so called ISignals, a translation between them is needed.

On a model-level, the translation entails creating an appropriate Port to either receive or send a signal-based payload. This can be done by mapping a Service Interface to one Classic signal, using a Service Instance To Signal Mapping. The direction of the port, whether it's receiving or providing, will be determined by whether the signal-based payload is incoming to the Adaptive Application or outgoing.

Open Editor

To open the Signal-To-Service Editor, expand your DaVinci Adaptive project in the DaVinci Project Explorer and double click on I_DaVinciDeveloperAdaptive Open Project Dashboard. The Project Frame opens showing the Project Home. You can then open the Signal-To-Service as follows:

Open the Editor menu on the top right of the Project Frame and click the Signal-To-Service Editor command.
Alternatively, use the context menu command Open Signal-To-Service Editor of the Open Project Dashboard node in the DaVinci Project Explorer.
Alternatively, on the Dashboard page of the Project Home, click Signal-To-Service Editor in the Comfort Editors area.
Alternatively, use the context menu command Open in Signal-To-Service Editor of a Service Instance To Signal Mapping Set or Service Instance To Signal Mapping in the AUTOSAR Model Explorer.

The Signal-To-Service Editor opens in a new tab of the Project Frame.

Editor

The Signal-To-Service Editor provides the functionalities listed below. If not otherwise mentioned, the functionalities available in the I_DetailsMode_FormMode Form mode are described. If you want to manage the properties of an element textually, switch to the I_DMLEditor DML mode via the toolbar and refer to DaVinci Modeling Language Editor for more information.

Builder

The Builder provides the automatic creation of service events, which perfectly matches to the signal selection of the selected PDUs.

Configuration

Within the configuration area, you can define namespaces, packages and files as well as naming rules for the generated output, initially.
After the initial definition the configuration area can be minimized.

Data Type Output: Define Namespace, Package and File.
Interface Output: Define Namespace, Package and File.
Mapping Output: Define Mapping Set and File.
Element Naming: Add Prefix and/or Postfix definition, to define the naming for the created elements.

For File definition, it is possible to I_CopyUpDown Copy Up Down already defined files.

Ethernet Communication Connector

Select the Ethernet Communication Connector which should be used. After the selection, all available PDUs, signals and signal groups will be shown in the overview below.

Auto-hide Signals

Use a regular expression to filter out irrelevant signals. These signals are not shown in the overview and hence not selected.

PDU/Signal Overview

Select the PDUs, signals and/or Signal groups which should be mapped.

Create Event(s)

Use the Create Event button to create events based on the selected signal(s) and signal groups. Decide if the created event(s) should be added to a new Interface or to an existing one.

Add to new Interface
A new Interface will be created based on configuration definitions.
Add to selected Interface
The created event(s) will be stored within the selected Interface.
