Now NEW: Supports all vehicles from 1994 to 2024. Please note that this is not compatible with systems like Autocom, Modiag, or Carsoft. The Vident iSmart900 offers comprehensive diagnostics and is professional-grade measuring equipment with a recommended retail price of over €3800.

The devices are lease returns from a company in another EU country. After purchase, you receive a 12-month warranty against defects and 24 months of free telephone support.

The Vident iSmart900 is specifically designed for users who require in-depth system diagnostics and want more than just basic OBD readout functions. Modern vehicles have a multitude of networked control units responsible for engine management, chassis, safety systems, and comfort features. A powerful diagnostic system must therefore not only display fault codes but also provide access to live data, coding, adaptations, and actuator tests.

This is precisely where the Vident iSmart900 comes in. Its comprehensive software architecture enables diagnostics at the control unit level, allowing even complex fault patterns to be systematically analyzed. These features make the system attractive to both independent workshops and specialized diagnostic centers.

Technical fundamentals of modern vehicle diagnostics

Communication with electronic control units

Modern vehicles, depending on their equipment, have between 20 and over 100 electronic control units (ECUs). These communicate with each other via various bus systems such as CAN, LIN, or FlexRay. The Vident iSmart900 uses a high-performance communication interface to address these systems and read diagnostic data.

Communication takes place via standardized protocols such as:

• ISO 9141
• KWP2000
• CAN bus
• UDS (Unified Diagnostic Services)
• SAE J1850

By supporting these protocols, the Vident iSmart900 can communicate with a very wide range of vehicles – from early OBD2 vehicles to modern models with complex network technology.

Error code analysis and system diagnostics

A key component of vehicle diagnostics is reading fault codes. However, in many cases, simply clearing a code is insufficient. The interpretation of the stored data is crucial. Therefore, the Vident iSmart900 not only provides codes but also additional information such as:

• Error description
• System assignment
• Environmental data at the time of the error
• Live sensor data for analysis

This makes it possible to systematically analyze errors and narrow down the actual cause.

Platform for diagnostic systems and add-on modules

The Windows-based setup of the Vident iSmart900 allows not only classic diagnostic software but also the integration of add-on modules that simplify daily workflows in the workshop. These include, for example, oscilloscope extensions, video endoscopes, and OEM information portals. Workshops specializing in systemic fault finding, in particular, benefit from combining multiple tools on a single terminal.

Advantage over tablet-based diagnostic solutions

Compared to purely Android or proprietary diagnostic tablets, the Vident iSmart900 offers the advantage of a traditional computer environment. Applications can be extended, data exported, and maintenance logs processed directly. This workflow is significantly faster, especially for technical reports, warranty claims, or diagnostic attachments.

Practical applications

Thanks to its wide range of service functions, the Vident iSmart900 is suitable for a variety of workshop types – from traditional independent garages to specialist workshops for diesel engines, electronics, or vehicle coding. Used car dealers also benefit, as control unit data can be documented before the sale and faults rectified 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 data and graphical analysis allow for precise tracking of such faults. Comparing values ​​to known standard parameters also facilitates diagnosis and reduces misinterpretations.

Supported vehicle brands

Alfa-Romeo, Audi, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Citroen, Dacia, Daewoo, Daihatsu, Dodge, Fiat, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Isuzu, Iveco, Jaguar, Jeep, Kia, Lada, Lancia, Land Rover, LDV, Lexus, Lincoln, Mazda, Mercedes, MG, Mini, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Proton, Renault, Rover, Saab, Seat, Skoda, Smart, SsangYong, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota, TVR, Volvo, VW and many more.

Support for specific vehicle segments

In addition to standard passenger cars, the system also covers many light commercial vehicles, which is particularly interesting for delivery services, fleet operators, and service companies. This broad coverage eliminates the need for additional brand-specific devices.

Recommended car models for use with the system

Suitable vehicles for extensive diagnostic functions

The Vident iSmart900 is particularly useful in vehicles with complex electronic architectures, as numerous control units communicate with each other. Typical examples include:

• BMW 3 Series (E90, F30)
• Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W204, W205)
• Volkswagen Golf VII
• Audi A4 B8
• Ford Mondeo MK5

Recommended vehicle model: Volkswagen Golf VII

The Vident iSmart900 is particularly recommended for use with the Volkswagen Golf VII. This model has numerous electronic systems such as driver assistance functions, comfort control units, electronic parking brake, start-stop systems and complex engine management systems.

These types of vehicles require a diagnostic system that not only reads fault codes but also allows for adaptations and coding. The Vident iSmart900 offers precisely these functions and is therefore ideally suited for maintenance, troubleshooting, and ECU adaptations on this type of vehicle.

Scope of delivery

Practical benefits of the wide variety of adapters

The wide range of adapters ensures that older OBD1 versions and brand-specific connectors are also supported. This is particularly important for vehicles from the 1990s and early 2000s, as many modern universal devices no longer support these systems.

Support for professional workshop processes

Documentation of diagnostic results

Documenting diagnoses and repairs is a crucial aspect of modern workshop operations. The Vident iSmart900 allows for the storage of comprehensive diagnostic reports. These can be used for internal documentation or to inform customers.

Especially in warranty work or complex repairs, comprehensible documentation is crucial to transparently illustrate work processes.

Support with systematic troubleshooting

The combination of fault codes, live data, and actuator tests allows for systematic troubleshooting. For example, mechanics can directly compare sensor values ​​with target values ​​or selectively control actuators to check their function.

This allows many errors to be identified more quickly and unnecessary parts replacements to be avoided.

Added technical value for diagnostics and maintenance

The Vident iSmart900 represents a comprehensive platform for professional vehicle diagnostics. The combination of broad vehicle coverage, in-depth diagnostic functions, and expandable system architecture enables efficient analysis of modern vehicle systems.

Thanks to its support for numerous control units and diagnostic protocols, the system is suitable for both maintenance work and complex troubleshooting. Workshops particularly benefit from the ability to combine diagnostics, documentation, and system analysis on a central platform.
