How it works

Two roles. One session. Full remote diagnostics.

The on-site VCI is mapped to the Technician’s PC at device level — your OEM software sees it as a local USB or network interface, with no remote desktop involved.

eLinehub VCI Mapping architecture — Before: physical VCI connected locally. After: VCI mapped over internet via eLinehub cloud to remote Technician PC

“SD Connect mapped on the first attempt. Ran a full XENTRY session including SCN coding — behaved exactly as if the cable was on my own bench. Setup took less than five minutes.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Mechanic software is always free. On-site teams install and use it at no cost. Only Technicians (the remote experts) pay a subscription. See pricing for full details.
Technicians start with a free trial — no credit card needed to get started. After the trial, a paid subscription is required. Mechanic software has no trial — it’s permanently free.
Remote desktop tools share a screen — the OEM software still requires a locally connected VCI on the remote PC. eLinehub maps the workshop VCI directly into the Technician’s PC at device level, so no VCI is needed on the Technician’s side at all.
Yes. eLinehub supports role-based access — multiple Technicians and Mechanics under one account, with governed sessions and per-user access control.
eLinehub uses a lossless communication layer that maintains session continuity. If the connection drops briefly, the VCI mapping resumes automatically once connectivity is restored.
eLinehub runs on Windows only, which aligns with the requirements of all major OEM diagnostic platforms including XENTRY, ISTA, ODIS, and IDS/FDRS.
