Description

The VCDS® HEX-V2® is the diagnostic system for all Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda and Bentley vehicles from 1992 to more recent series of models, as well as other small batch series and utility vehicles based on Volkswagen technology.


The Professional version is especially suited for workshops and professional users because they can diagnose an unlimited number of vehicles from the brands Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda and Bentley.


Possible applications:

  • Automated test sequence
  • Control device information (and expanded CAN information)
  • Actuator test (sequential / selective)
  • Basic setting
  • Coding (short / long / subsystems)
  • Value blocks (real-time data)
  • Adaption (long / short)
  • Readiness (read / set)
  • German database of fault codes with error texts
  • Service reset
  • EOBD / OBD2 functions (spans multiple brands)
  • and much more!

This evolution of the worldwide popular Ross-Tech HEX+CAN interface hardware can, like before, be used with the VCDS software which is based on Windows. 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-V2 interface hardware the system is multi-workstation capable.


Comparative advantages to older VCDS diagnostic systems:

  • Robust USB cable, removable and replaceable
  • Supports the newer vehicle generations, starting in model year 2016 (for example Audi MLB2)
  • Improved materials for better stability, longer life span, improved exterior looks as well as ease of use
  • Up to 3 times faster communication with the vehicle (for example Auto-Scan) in comparison to HEX+CAN
  • New micro controller that makes future expansions of VCDS functions possible


Including:

  • Plug-ins VC-Scope, TDI-Graph and LCode
  • Software updates through download for free for an undetermined period of time, however at least 12 months from the purchase date
  • Technical support after purchase through the German VCDS discussion board and the German VCDS Wiki
  • Manual for the use of the German VCDS discussion board and the German VCDS Wiki


Please note:

  • Due to the communication rate of 240 bits per second, found in Audi TDI engine control devices built from 1991 to 1994, the HEX-NET and HEX-V2 interfaces can not establish a connection. A HEX+CAN-USB diagnostic system is required for these engine control devices.


Technical specifications:

  • 16 pole ISO 9141-2 OBD2 plug made from fibre-reinforced ABS plastic with proper fit
  • Flexible USB connection cable with a length of approx. 1,5m
  • Gold plated connections for highest stability and contact security
