- Identification This system specification, SAE J2461, revises the requirements for Vehicle Electronics Programming Stations (VEPS) set forth in SAE J2214, Vehicle Electronics Programming Stations (VEPS) System Specification for Programming Components at OEM Assembly Plants. SAE J2461 specifies the recommended practices for a Win32 TM environment while maintaining the core VEPS architecture specified in SAE J2214. Introduction SAE J2461 describes the application of the Win32 TM environment to the customization of programmable components assembled in OEM vehicles, where components provide a communication API such as TMC RP1210. Because the customization is performed using both OEM-provided and vendor-provided software, the roles and responsibilities of the vendor and OEM elements must be defined to permit the development of common vendor software elements for all Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). SAE J2461 identifies the system resources of a Win32 TM computer between OEM and vendor components, the required elements comprising VEPS, and specifies the software interfaces needed between the OEM-supplied elements and the vendor-supplied elements. By maintaining many common elements with SAE J2214, an orderly transition from a MS-DOS TM based VEPS to a Win32 TM VEPS can be achieved. SAE J2286 is the software interface element of SAE J2214 that specifies the Vendor Component Program Data File Interface for OEM Assembly Operations. SAE J2286 will still be the Data File Interface used for the Win32 TM VEPS. TMC RP1210 describes the communication API used by the vendor programs.
