Users should review their web site prior to making a purchase decision IMHO.įinally, here is the link to the function table from Ross-Tech: Ĭlick to expand.I am not sure if this is still an issue with Windows 7 but with the older Win XP version, you can get into a situation if you plug the 'ebay cable' into your computer, and Windows automatically installs a driver. Ross-Tech has a nice web page listing the features of VCDS, VCDS Lite (paid version), and VCDS Lite (crippled version). In many cases I am not sure they even realize that the version they are using is not fully functional.
I think a lot of the complaints with VCDS Lite are from folks that didn't pay the shareware fee and are using the crippled version that has many of the most valuable features disabled. But, I guess you can never go wrong with purchasing one of the Ross-Tech cables/dongles. I can use the timing graph too (another post about a month ago questioned this).įor the limited times I use the set-up I am very happy with my purchase. I have access to all the timing values I need.
Here is their direct web site: įWIW, I have had no problems whatsoever. I paid the $99 for VCDS Lite and bought a cheap cable from alpha-bid on ebay.
