What Is E6 CONNECT, and What Do You Need to Run It at Home?
Published · Updated
E6 CONNECT is golf-simulation software that turns data from a compatible launch monitor into virtual practice, courses, games, and online play. It runs on a Windows PC or supported iOS device, with a license suited to your launch monitor and platform. You also need a safe hitting setup and a display; installing the software alone doesn't measure a shot.
The launch monitor does the measuring
E6 receives shot data from the launch monitor and uses it to simulate play. TruGolf's manual includes range practice, local rounds, games, and online play; access depends on the license you activate. E6 CONNECT manual
The computer or iOS device runs the software. A TV or projector shows the result, while the net or impact screen contains the real ball. Those jobs are separate, so a tablet-based simulator still needs a safe place to hit.
The Windows spec
TruGolf's E6 CONNECT manual recommends an Intel i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM, an Nvidia 1070 graphics card or equivalent dedicated DirectX 11 GPU, and 25 GB of storage. It lists Windows 10 and an internet connection as required. Published E6 CONNECT system requirements
That is the published specification for CONNECT. It doesn't promise smooth play at every resolution or establish the requirements for TruGolf's other E6 products. If you plan to use a 4K display, confirm the intended resolution and computer with the software provider before buying.
On an iPad or iPhone
TruGolf offers E6 CONNECT for PC and iOS, including the Home license. For a room with no PC, confirm that your exact launch monitor and license support the iOS connection you plan to use. An iPad running the software is only part of that setup. TruGolf E6 CONNECT platforms and Home plan
Paying for it
TruGolf advertises subscription options, but some hardware bundles include an E6 CONNECT Home license with owned courses. For example, its LaunchBox listing includes Home and says the included course package doesn't require an annual subscription. That doesn't establish the terms of a license for a different monitor.

The standalone Home listing shows 27 owned courses and asks you to log in for the U.S. price. Check the exact offer for payment frequency, taxes, renewal, cancellation, and any manufacturer plan needed to connect your monitor; the public listing doesn't provide a complete checkout price or those terms.

18-plus launch monitors, and moving to a new PC
TruGolf advertises compatibility with more than 18 launch monitors, including models from Garmin, Rapsodo, and FlightScope. TruGolf compatibility overview
Each E6 CONNECT license can be bound to one computer or device at a time. If you move to a new computer, unbind it from the old one and activate it on the replacement. E6 CONNECT license management
