Platform for Diagnostic Systems and Add-on Modules
The Windows-based setup of the Vident iSmart allows not only classic diagnostic software but also the integration of additional modules that simplify daily operations in the workshop. These include, for example, oscilloscope extensions, video endoscopes, or OE information portals. Workshops specializing in systemic fault diagnosis particularly benefit from combining multiple tools on a single terminal.
Advantage over Tablet-based Diagnostic Solutions
Compared to pure Android or proprietary diagnostic tablets, the Vident iSmart offers the advantage of providing a classic computer environment. Applications can be extended, data exported, and maintenance protocols can be directly processed further. This workflow is significantly faster, especially for technical reports, warranty claims, or diagnostic attachments.

Practical Applications
Due to the variety of service functions, the device is suitable for various workshop types – from classic independent workshops to specialized businesses for diesel, electronics, or vehicle coding. Used car dealerships also benefit, as ECU data can be documented before sale and faults can be eliminated before delivery.
Live Data Analysis for Complex Fault Patterns
Many modern faults do not occur continuously, but only under load, during temperature changes, or in specific driving situations. Real-time values and graphical evaluation allow such faults to be precisely tracked. Comparison values with known standard parameters also simplify diagnosis and reduce misinterpretations.
Supported Vehicle Brands

Important Note on Vehicle Coverage: The indication "up to model year 2025" describes the total period that the device can cover across all supported brands – it does not mean that every brand or model is automatically fully supported up to 2025. Which vehicles and functions are specifically available always depends on the manufacturer, model, year of manufacture, and control unit. The 3-year update guarantee ensures that coverage continuously grows and new vehicle models are regularly added.
