Description
The Launch X431 SmartLink B – Remote Diagnostic Device is a cutting‑edge diagnostic interface designed to enable remote vehicle troubleshooting and support for professional automotive technicians, workshops, and remote service providers. As part of the Launch SmartLink Super Remote Diagnosis System, SmartLink B acts as the service provider (business) end that accepts and performs diagnostic requests from vehicles equipped with a SmartLink C unit via the Launch SmartLink Service Platform.
Built for flexible use with LAUNCH diagnostic tools, OEM diagnostic systems, or many third‑party scan tools, SmartLink B supports a range of modern automotive communication protocols — including J2534, DoIP, CAN FD, CAN 2.0, RP1210, and D‑PDU — allowing it to work across a wide array of vehicle makes and models. In addition to remote diagnostics, it can be used for local diagnostics when connected with an intelligent Launch scanner, expanding its utility in workshop settings.
Through the Launch Super Remote Diagnosis Reservation Platform, technicians using SmartLink B can browse and accept posted diagnostic requests, establish a remote connection with a customer’s vehicle, and then use compatible tools to read and clear fault codes, view live data, and guide repairs — all without physically being at the vehicle’s location. This capability helps reduce service time, cut travel costs, and expand technical support reach for service businesses.
