Prodigy PGY-FlexRay is protocol decode and signal integrity analysis software for FlexRay that runs inside Windows-based Tektronix DPO5000, DPO7000 and DPO70000 oscilloscopes. It decodes thousands of FlexRay messages, shows the waveform and decoded data side by side, and adds signal integrity tools: eye diagrams for selected messages, time interval error per frame to reveal oscillator stability, sync frame timing and average bit time. Pertech is the authorized Prodigy distributor.
FlexRay software highlights
- Converts time-domain waveforms into FlexRay messages, shown in hex or decimal
- Waveform and decoded data in one window, with any frame, data or address linked to its waveform
- Bit-level 1 and 0 annotations in a zoomed waveform window
- Software triggers on frame content, null frames, sync frames and CRC errors
- Search across thousands of messages and timestamps relative to the trigger
- Offline analysis from reference waveforms, WFM and CSV files; decoded messages saved as CSV
Signal integrity analysis
Beyond decode, PGY-FlexRay measures what the bus is doing electrically:
- Eye diagram for selected messages across the full acquisition
- Time interval error for each frame, showing how oscillator stability affects each FlexRay node
- Time between sync frames
- Average bit time
Where the FlexRay software earns its keep
- Validating FlexRay nodes and networks in automotive ECUs
- Tracing intermittent frame errors to signal integrity problems
- Checking clock and oscillator behavior across nodes
- Analyzing saved captures offline

Frequently asked questions
What does the signal integrity analysis add?
Besides decoding, it shows eye diagrams for selected messages, measures time interval error for each frame to reveal oscillator stability in each node, and measures sync frame timing and average bit time.
Which oscilloscopes does PGY-FlexRay run on?
It runs on Windows-based Tektronix DPO5000, DPO7000 and DPO70000 oscilloscopes.
Can it trigger on FlexRay errors?
Yes. Software triggers fire on frame content, null frames, sync frames and CRC errors.
Can I analyze captures later?
Yes. It decodes from reference waveforms, WFM files and CSV files, and saves decoded messages in CSV format.
