Hella ECU.

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 2008.
Computer Requirements:
A 500 Mhz or faster PC running Windows 98 or newer with an available USB port.
Windows XP on a 1 GHz or faster PC is preferred. If you're using an PC that isn't running Windows XP
or has a CPU speed less than 1 GHz, you should consider the Serial HEX-COM+CAN
instead.
Extending this Interface:
The cable on this interface is about 6 feet long -- just
right for most laptops. The
USB standards
do not allow for passive extension cords!
We have tested many Active USB extensions and have found one
that works. You can order the
16-ft Active USB Extension from our
Store. We do not sell
or support any other brands or models of USB extensions, if
you have problems when using one, the first thing
we're going to tell you is to eliminate the extension.
If you plan to use a desktop PC, we
recommend you buy a serial HEX-COM+CAN Interface instead.
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-USB+CAN. However, product support is provided only
to the original purchaser.
If you
buy a second-hand HEX-USB+CAN from someone and want support, you'll still need to pay
$99 to register.
Upgrade Offer:
HEX-USB+CAN Interfaces are available as an upgrade to existing
registered VAG-COM users. More details are available in the
Interface Upgrade Section of our
Store.
Software:
The HEX-USB+CAN should be used with the latest
version of VAG-COM software.
Known Issues:
This
interface performs best with Windows-XP. It
can be used with Windows 98, ME, or 2000, but performance
may be somewhat degraded by using an OS other than Windows
XP and compatibility with "difficult" control modules may
be reduced.
Notes:
This interface
requires a special driver to be installed on your
PC. It does not emulate a COM port. That
means this interface will not work with any other
software besides VAG-COM. We do not sell any interface
adapters as a
"Stand-Alone" products. We only sell them with
our VAG-COM software.
