You can find the latest version of the VCDS software in your diesel mechanic customer account under http://shop.dieselschrauber.org/en/account.php.

The VCDS software comes with the VCDS interface configuration program, which is used to register the HEX-NET or the HEX-V2. The HEX-NET / HEX-V2 does not need to be connected to a vehicle during registration, but the computer being used must be online.

Starten Sie die VCDS-Software und stecken Sie das HEX-NET / HEX-V2 auf Ihren Computer. Klicken Sie auf die Schaltfläche [Einstellungen] und dann auf die Schaltfläche [Anschlusstest]. Sie sollten eine Meldung erhalten, dass das Interface gefunden und als HEX-NET oder HEX-V2 identifiziert wurde. [Click the "OK" button.

Now, click the [Configuration] button to open the VCDS interface configuration program (VCIConfig.exe). Go to the Registration tab. If your HEX-NET / HEX-V2 is registered, you will see your information. If your HEX-NET / HEX-V2 is not registered, you will see a registration form. Please review the privacy policy on our website and check the box to accept the terms and conditions.

To use SFD, register the interface with the same user who will later perform the SFD activations.

Please fill in the required information and then click the "[Submit Registration Request]" button.

A pop-up message will inform you that the information has been successfully submitted, and you will receive an email with instructions to complete the registration.

If you receive the email from Ross Tech, you will find your transaction ID. Copy this information and paste it into the "Transaction ID" field in the VCDS interface configuration utility. Then, click "Complete Registration."

Eine Pop-up-Nachricht wird Sie wissen lassen, dass die Registrierung erfolgreich war. [Click OK].

Zurück in der VCDS-Software, unter dem Bildschirm [Einstellungen], einen anderen [Anschlusstest]. Klicken Sie auf OK und dann auf die Schaltfläche Speichern, um zum ersten Bildschirm der VCDS-Software zurückzukehren. Klicken Sie auf die Schaltfläche [Über...], und wenn Sie Ihre Informationen sehen, zeigt dies, dass das HEX-NET / HEX-V2 korrekt registriert ist.

Attention: Contrary to the information displayed in the program, it may take up to 24 hours to receive the email containing the registration code.

Hello,
I registered my HEX-NET shortly after receiving it with Ross-Tech, but I haven't yet received an email from them for revalidation. Will that email still arrive, or was I too hasty in registering?
Best regards, Norbert.

Everything is fine, the response from Ross-Tech was in my spam folder.
