KWP 2000 VS UDS Protocols
Vehicle diagnostics as a procedure has experienced various changes in the course of recent decades. The interest for a more
exact, standard and proficient blame recognition in vehicle diagnostics, has prompted achievement advancements and
improvements.

Advancement of Vehicle Diagnostics:

Prior, there were streak codes wherein specialists needed to search for flashes and change over them to codes or now and
then the professional needed to physically evacuate vehicle parts, disengage wires for blame identification. To oblige this
need of great importance, different vehicle analytic conventions were conceptualized and created. ISO and SAE (Society of
Automotive Engineers) presented different demonstrative conventions and measures, intended to take into account the
distinctive kinds of Automotive ECU frameworks and diagnostics particulars from the vehicle producers.

OBD II (On-Board Diagnostics), K-Line per ISO 9141-2, KWP 2000 (Keyword Protocol 2000), UDS (Unified Diagnostic Services)
are a portion of the vehicle indicative conventions planned and sent amid the advancement in off-board and on-board
vehicle diagnostics. In spite of the fact that an extensive number diagnostics conventions and frameworks were created and
utilized inside the car business, a significant number of them have turned out to be out of date because of the fast
"Electron-ification "of the car ECU (control units).

KWP 2000

KWP2000 or the Keyword Protocol 2000 is an on-board diagnosis (OBD) convention grumbling with ISO 14230 standard.

It characterizes a typical arrangement of correspondence codes, for trade of information, utilized by vehicle ECUs according
to the rules the OBDII administrative standard. KWP 2000 is good with both K-Line (ISO 9141) and CAN (ISO 11898) in-
vehicle organizing frameworks.

The KWP 2000 convention utilizes a physical layer, indistinguishable to ISO 9141-2, for bidirectional serial correspondence
over K-line with the controller. The convention additionally utilizes L-Line (discretionary) unidirectional correspondence, to
awaken the car ECU.

The normal information rate of KWP 2000 is in the vicinity of 1.2 and 10.4 kilo baud, and the information fields inside the
message may contain up to 255 bytes.

UDS Protocol – Unified Diagnostics Service:

The Unified Diagnostics Service (ISO 14229) is an off-board analytic framework. It is composed in consistence with ISO
14230-3 (KWP2000) and ISO 15765-3 (Diagnostic Communication over Controller Area Network (DoCAN)) gauges.

The most extreme size of message bolstered inside UDS is up to 8 bytes. For trading messages surpassing 8-bytes, the UDS
convention utilizes ISO 15765-2 layer, a worldwide standard for exchange of information parcels over a CANBus. UDS
analytic execution is free of the hidden physical layer and is additionally perfect over both LIN and CAN in-vehicle systems.

UDS as an indicative convention was produced to bring together all the diagnostics guidelines that existed beforehand and
to think of a solitary legitimate arrangement of demonstrative administrations for the car ECUs.

This has guaranteed that reconciliation of the UDS protocol stack lessens the extra expenses for the advancement of
indicative correspondence applications.

• Support for in-vehicle correspondence systems:

The KWP 2000 convention backings CAN and K-line transport frameworks . The UDS convention is intended to be
autonomous of the fundamental vehicle organize as it bolsters a scope of transport frameworks including CAN, CAN - FD,
LIN, and so on. KWP 2000 is exceptionally favored where the vehicles depend on inheritance frameworks, for example, K-
line. Something else, nowadays UDS convention is the go to standard for vehicle diagnostics.

• Transfer of Key Measurement Values:

Both the indicative convention encourage trade of demand and order messages from the test hardware to the car ECU; and
key estimation esteems (information) accordingly from the vehicle ECU. Be that as it may, there is a key distinction between
the two conventions in the way these estimation esteems are traded between the analyzer and ECU: UDS utilizes the 2-byte
dataIdentifiers (DID), while the KWP utilizes a 1-byte recordLocalIdentifier and 2-byte commonIdentifier.

The benefit of the UDS convention is that the analyzer can ask for a few estimation esteems with one UDS benefit ask for
utilizing its 2 bytes ( 16 bits) in length information identifiers when contrasted with the 1-byte ( 8 bits) Local identifier
utilized by KWP 2000 standard. This implies expanded effectiveness of information trade.

• Diagnostic Communication between Test hardware and vehicle ECU:

The trading of messages between testing gadget and the vehicle ECU shapes the premise of the indicative framework.

The natures of demand and reaction messages and information exchange interim between them shape an imperative factor
in vehicle diagnostics. KWP2000 favors symmetrical correspondence succession where the quantity of demand and
reaction messages between the testing gadget and server are symmetrical.
Then again, UDS depends on an occasion driven and intermittent correspondence grouping. This implies, the quantity of
demand and reaction messages can be unique.

In addition, in an intermittent correspondence succession in light of UDS standard, the test gear sends occasional
solicitations for refreshed data from car ECUs. This aides in nearly observing vehicle condition in consistent interims. The
vehicle ECU may react to the occasional demand with one or a few information record esteems. This additionally helps in
recognizing any deviation from the edge/perfect esteems related with pivotal vehicle capacities, for example, airbag
arrangement , motor fuel infusion, motor speed and warming and so forth.

In this way UDS offers more definite data identified with the blame through occasional refresh.

• Error Memory Management:

While the KWP 2000 gives 4 administrations to blunder memory administration, the UDS convention determines only two
administrations. KWP 2000 utilizations following administrations for mistake memory administration:

$14 (clearDiagnosticInformation),

$18 (readDTCByStatus),

$17 (readStatusOfDTC), and

$12 (readFreezeFrameData).

While, UDS utilizes just the

$14 (clearDiagnosticInformation) and

$19 (readDTCInformation)

With the assistance of the readDTCInformation benefit in the UDS convention , the testing gadget can read indicative
related DTC information, as well as read extra parameters of the segment ( say motor) at the season of the event of blame.
This aides in pinpointing the underlying driver of blame/harm and afterward embraced the correct repair and upkeep tasks.

• Read DTC Functions:

The KWP2000 convention indicates 3 work for the Read DTC (Read DiagnosticTroubleCodes) benefit . Despite what might be
expected, the UDS convention indicates 21 sub capacities for the Read DTC benefit.

With the assistance of the extra sub capacities, UDS empowers the analyzer to gather more demonstrative data. This is
valuable in the advanced car industry where the many-sided quality of outline and number of parts in the vehicle are
expanding.

KWP 2000 and UDS are both utilized as a part of present day cars for effective and precise conclusion of vehicle wellbeing
and flaws. Over the time, UDS convention inferable from its power and a more extensive administration range is relied upon
to be the eventual fate of car diagnostics.

UDS convention is characterized by repetition of functionalities whereby different UDS administrations can be utilized to
execute a specific analytic capacity. For instance, both SIDs 0x36 (TransferData) and 0x3D ( writeMemoryByAddress) are
powerful for streak memory programming. Essentially, any of the 0x2E (writeDataByIdentifier) and 0x3D
(writeMemoryByAddress) can be utilized for information control inside ECU.

Accordingly, UDS as a demonstrative convention clears path for included administrations and functionalities. In any case, it
likewise requires extra necessity for ECU memory alongside additional advancement costs. Along these lines it is essential
to consider over specific inquiries, previously choosing the execution of UDS administrations for your application, recorded
as:

1. What all administrations are important for you?

2. What all sub capacities and parameters are vital to be considered for UDS usage?

3. What all information identifier and parameters ought to be centered around?
