Vin Power

Vin Power is a 3rd Party Utility that ITrack uses for the decoding of VINs. In the host.ini file there is a "vinpower" section where the path of the vin power files can be specified. This location is "...\<ITrack Directory>\Vin Power\" on most peoples installs of ITrack although for some it may still be "...\<ITrack Directory>\data\" (if this is the case you should change it to "Vin power").

If users are getting the error "Error loading VIN power. Please verify that the data path is correct set in host.ini" When they open the Vehicle Screen, it means one of the following things:

  • The path in the host file isn't pointed to the correct directory of the vin power files
  • vp_lib5.dll needs to be registered
    • Open up the command prompt and run regsvr32 <path of vin power files>\vp_lib5.dll

If they get an error: "Error Decoding Vin" it may mean:

  • The VIN they entered isn't valid
  • The VIN is too long for Vin Power to decode (> 13 characters)
    • If this is the case, try removing a few characters off the end of the VIN
