Credits🔗

Credits are the currency HP Tuners uses to sell licenses for tuning specific vehicles. When purchased, credits are loaded onto the HP Tuners interface device you use to read and flash vehicles. Newer devices, such as the MPVI2, 2+, and 3 employ universal credits, which can be used for any vehicle we support.

Older MPVI units used a different type of credit for each vehicle manufacturer. Those credits are still valid and will be accepted if they have not yet been used.

Adding Credits🔗

To purchase new credits and add them to your device:

  1. If you have not already done so, create an account on www.hptuners.com and register your interface device.

  2. Once registered, the module will appear in your My Devices list. Select My Devices on the My Account page.

  3. The My Devices page lists all of your registered devices. Select the Add Credit link for the desired device.

  4. In the box to the left of the Add to cart button, enter the number of credits you wish to purchase.

  5. Click Add to cart and proceed to checkout.

  6. Once checkout is completed, connect the device to a USB port on your computer.

  7. Open VCM Scanner or VCM Editor.

  8. In the menu bar, select Help > Resync Interface. This ensures that information about your interface, its credits and its licenses are available to both the VCM Suite and the device itself.

  9. When the resync is completed, click Close.

How Many Credits Do I Have Now?🔗

There are two places to see available credits:

  • VCM Suite Info (the Infolog)
  • The My Account page on the HP Tuners website.

Note

You can view the number of credits spent on licenses and the number of upgrade credits available in the VCM Editor's License Information window.

Viewing Credits in the Infolog🔗

The number of available credits can be seen in the VCM Suite Info window:

  1. Click the VCM Suite Info button in either VCM Editor or VCM Scanner.

    Note

    Make sure your interface is plugged into your PC before proceeding.

  2. Click the blue circle "i" icon to poll the software and the vehicle.

    Note

    This step may take five to twenty seconds to complete.

  3. When Infolog generation is complete, the number of credits on the attached interface can be seen near the top of the file.

Viewing Credits on the My Account Page🔗
