汽车在在开发过程中，需要根据目标市场要求、法规要求、车型配置要求等对控制器进行整车标定。例如发动机控制器、空调控制器、车身防盗控制器、自动变速器控制器、车身稳定控制系统(DSC)控制器、刹车防抱死系统(ABS)控制器、仪表控制单元等。During the development process of the car, it is necessary to calibrate the controller according to the target market requirements, regulatory requirements, and vehicle configuration requirements. Such as engine controller, air conditioning controller, body anti-theft controller, automatic transmission controller, body stability control system (DSC) controller, brake anti-lock braking system (ABS) controller, instrument control unit, etc.

汽车进入市场后，针对法规的要求的变化，发现的问题和市场中客户的反馈，对各控制器进行重新配置和标定。在售后的维修保养中，同种车型的控制系统，会有不同的零件配置，需要不同的标定软件进行刷新。After the car enters the market, each controller is reconfigured and calibrated according to changes in regulatory requirements, problems found and customer feedback in the market. In the after-sales maintenance, the control system of the same vehicle type will have different component configurations, which require different calibration software to refresh.

在车辆诊断和标定软件刷新过程中通常使用诊断仪，当需要更新车辆控制器标定软件时，通过诊断仪的通讯接口与车辆诊断接口连接，例如SAE(美国汽车工程师学会)J1962标准接口，将新的标定软件刷新到车辆的相应控制器中。由于车辆功能日益复杂、车型众多、控制器日益增多，传统的标定软件刷新方法不但容易出错，而且效率低下。In the process of vehicle diagnosis and calibration software refresh, a diagnostic instrument is usually used.
