Available to Order Now!

The Mectric Vehicle Integration Controller (MVIC) is a fully featured, user definable, programmable CAN translation unit. It's 2x CAN 2.0B/FD interfaces can be configured to send and receive a virtually limitless combination of data. Powerful firmware and an intuitive user interface allows the generation of thousands of predefined and custom channels. Dynamic 4D tables, programmable custom logic, math expression evaluation, and a purpose built C-style scripting language all add up to a device perfect for even the most complex integration project. The MVIC is constructed from AEC-Q100 Automotive Grade components, ensuring it's reliability in harsh environments.

Applications

• Integration of aftermarket ECU's with OEM systems.
• Integration of cross-brand aftermarket systems.
• Complex custom logic control for extending existing system controls.
• Reverse engineering.
• CAN protocol prototyping.

MecScript

We've created a fast, C-style, statically typed, heap-less, compiled scripting language designed specifically to run in embedded devices, allowing unlimited user control of device systems and data. Code is compiled before being loaded onto the device to maximize execution speed and ensure the IP stays with the code author. Scripted integration packages can be developed and distributed by approved dealers, including the ability to lock their IP into a single device. 

MecScript access is available as a separate purchase.

Vehicle Integration Presets

Preset Vehicle Integrations are also available here. The range will be added to as time goes on. Due to the extreme amount of reverse engineering work required to build and test these integrations, they are available as a separate purchase. Upon purchase you will be issued an unlock code to enable the functionality on your device.
