Can the TEXA TXT Multihub improve how your garage performs diagnostics?

In recent years it's become undeniable that the electronics in cars are becoming increasingly more complex, and that's before you even factor in electric vehicles and hybrids. With significant improvements in vehicle functionality, safety, comfort, and reliability, diagnostics tools are essential in any garage or workshop. However, each manufacturer has different diagnostic and connection modes. This means that switching between multiple vehicles in a busy garage can cause extra stress, which is why the TEXA TXT Multihub is the perfect addition for busy garages and workshops.

The TEXA TXT Multihub is a clever bit of kit that quickly and intuitively adapts to maintenance activities across different vehicles from different manufacturers. It is also the only tool on the market that can simultaneously run diagnostics on multiple vehicle types, including cars, heavy-duty vehicles, motorcycles, boats, and agricultural and construction vehicles.

Running on a Linux operating system, the TXT Multihub is futureproofed, meaning it can incorporate further functions and operations as manufacturers introduce them, and its intelligent connectivity function means that mechanics can quickly get to work on any vehicle that comes in without any fuss. In addition, because it regularly updates and evolves, it means you can avoid software or hardware issues in the middle of a job.

The hub can communicate via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, network cable, and USB, and the CAN FD protocol in Wi-Fi mode enables it to transfer information five times faster. With integrated DoIP (Diagnostic over Internet Protocol), mechanics can quickly diagnose vehicle problems over Wi-Fi, reducing the need for cables. The TXT MULTIHUB complies with standards SAE J2534-1 and SAE J2534-2, enabling it to run Pass-Thru diagnostics, communicating directly with the manufacturers, making it perfect for performing vehicle software updates.

Alongside this, it is also incredibly robust and is designed for busy workshop environments. Aside from being water and dust resistant, it also has a reinforced body with anti-shock corners. TEXA have put the device through the military standard MIL-STD 810G transit drop test to ensure that it can absorb impacts and falls.

The easily readable, built-in backlit display gives superb usability, displaying important information such as vehicle battery voltage and providing the operator with 40 easily viewable diagnostic messages. Furthermore, the display works in real-time, showing the vehicle's battery voltage (essential for certain diagnostic procedures).

We feel that the TXT Multihub is an essential piece of equipment for any future thinking garage. So, if you would like the diagnostics equipment in your garage or workshop to feel smoother and more manageable, it may be worth speaking to the team at Autoquip
