This evolution of the worldwide popular Ross-Tech HEX+CAN interface hardware can, like before, be used with the Ross-Tech® VCDS® software, which is based on Windows. With this, it supports both a classic USB connection as well as wi-fi functionality and offers a new dimension of scope and comfort. For separate and especially older models / other brands (for example Linde, KTM), additional adapters are optionally available. In EOBD mode this interface grants access to diagnostic functions concerning exhaust and spanning multiple brands (such as Mercedes Benz, BMW, newer Opel models, all French brands, multiple Asian brands and much more). Furthermore, due to the licence dongle functionality of the HEX-NET interface hardware the system is multi-workstation capable.
For portable use the Ross-Tech® VCDS-Mobile®, a browser based variant of VCDS, is at your service. This enables the utilization of all smartphones and tablets that have access to a wi-fi connection and a browser. It does not matter which operating system your mobile device runs on. Android, iOS, Windows Phone, BlackBerry as well as other operating systems are supported by VCDS-Mobile. VCDS-Mobile is currently available in English as a draft version with a limited range of functions.
