Which Scanner apart from Xentry/SDS

I recently replaced the 2 rear bumper radar sensors on my 2012 w212 and it appears some coding is needed. What affordable scanner can I buy for this that isn't xentry?

The Launch x431 Creader Elite 2.0 for Benz seems popular, several threads on it. I don't think you need the scanner for your parktronic sensors, I think you just need to clear out the errors which any scanner that can read MB specific codes can do.

normally the blindspot radars are self-trained without coding.

Launch MB Elite will help you see what's happening live.

I was wondering if you had an update. I was also thinking about pulling the trigger on one too for a w211 e55

So far so good, it's pretty rich in functions but its incapableof doing the radar sensor programming I wanted. I'd say pull that hammer back and let it fly.
