This interface comes with an
OBD-II type connector which plugs right in to most 1994 and
newer VW's and 1996 and newer Audis. Most
1990-1995 Audis and 1990-1993 VW's have the
"2x2" data link connector, click here for more info.
Compatibility:
This interface works with all
diagnostic-capable VW, Audi, Seat, and Skoda models from 1990
through 2010.
Computer Requirements:
We recommend at
least a 200 MHz Pentium (or AMD equivalent) with 64 MB of RAM
and Windows 2000 or newer.
with an
available Serial port.
Windows 2000, XP, Vista, and 7 are all fine.
As of version 10.6, we no longer support Windows 95, 98, ME or
NT4. If your PC does not
have an available Serial port, you should get the
HEX-USB+CAN instead.
Extending this Interface:
The cable on this adapter is
about 6 feet long -- just right for most laptops.
If you want to use this interface with a desktop PC, you
will need a standard serial (DB9M to DB9F) extension cord.
We usually stock extensions in 15' (3m). See the
Accessories Section of our
Store for
pricing.
Resale:
This
interface acts as a "dongle" for VAG-COM, so the software
should be fully functional on any PC you use with the
HEX-COM+CAN. However, product support is provided only
to the original purchaser.
If you buy a
second-hand HEX-COM+CAN from someone and want support,
you'll still need to pay $99 to
register.
Software:
This interface should should
be used with the
latest version of VCDS software.
Note:
We do not sell any interfaces
as "Stand-Alone" products. We only sell them
with our VCDS software.
How to order:
Out of production, no longer available.
