Possible to calibrate or reset new rain-light sensor without XENTRY?

Have the rain light sensor newly installed. The light sensor now does not work. The rain sensing one is ok. Having a code asking for a light sensor calibration. My iCarsoft scanner cannot do it.

Possible to do it by other ways without XENTRY? A warning message is always on. Any help or advice is highly appreciated. Many thanks.

nice & clear

You have the next step perfectly cornered.

Either build a Xentry/DAS system
-Or pay a 1Hr charge to get the sensor initialized

Have a calibration in a shop today. 15 mins job. No message again.
By the way, I will try a used sensor next time so need not to pay for reset.
