MAHA VCI 

 

The MAHA VCI and MAHA Emission Software can perform OBD diagnostics on 
vehicles (cars, LCVs, trucks and buses). 
Communication with the PC is wireless via WiFi. The VCI can be operated either 
as a WiFi base station (access point) or as a WiFi client, connected to the existing 
WiFi network. 
The VCI and the PC software are accredited for exhaust emission test according 
to Guideline 5 in Germany.
