I think you are referring to Star-Xentry, right?
It is an extremely powerful tool for trained individuals. Definitely not designed for consumers.

What don't you like about iCarSoft or Autel scanners?

Get yourself a tactrix openport passthru device and install Xentry passthru 6.2021. Should work perfectly fine for reading codes, clearing codes and looking at actual values.
