VAG-Scope
Open-Source / Freeware
 Graphing "Plug-In" for VAG-COM
(VAG-Scope is included when you download VAG-COM)


Quick Instructions:

  • You can use VAG-Scope in one of two ways:  

    • View live data while connected to a car by launching VAG-Scope.  Click the [VAG-Scope] button on VAG-COM's Measuring Blocks screen,

    • View date previously logged with VAG-COM by manually starting  VAG-Scope in stand-alone and opening a VAG-COM Log file

  • You cannot do both at the same time.  If VAG-Scope is running in Stand-alone mode, VAG-COM will not start.   If you manually start VAG-Scope while VAG-COM is running, it won't work (should give an error message).

  • Use the checkboxes next to each display field to select which items are graphed.

  • Click on a field to select it for vertical scaling.   Then change the Max and Min values in the Vertical scale boxes.  VAG-Scope will remember all scaling values for a particular control module by part number.

  • Click the Ross-Tech Icon in the upper-left hand corner for a menu item to access a Preferences Dialog:

Preferences:

  • Here you can set colors for the graph lines, the graph background and the grid.  

  • You can also set default scaling values (based on the units that VAG-COM sends)

Gauges:

To display a gauge, right-click in the small color square next to the data you want to see on the gauge:  

                   

  • You can have as many gauges as there are lines on the graph.

  • Each gauge can be independently re-sized and repositioned.

  • Right-clicking on the gauge itself will give you several options:

NOTEs:   

  • VAG-Scope can be used to play back Log files produced by any version of VAG-COM.  

  • In order to graph live data in real-time, you must use Release 303.1 or newer.

  • VAG-Scope is included in the all VAG-COM releases available on the VAG-COM Download Page, but you may find a newer version of VAG-Scope on the VAG-Scope Download Page.
