He wants one that will read OBD-II system also and give more information than just codes.
The CP9190 will do all of that and here is an example of the extra information.

Maybe this will help. I hope it is not too much information.

CANST PURGE =
On the solenoid is on and passing gas vapor to the intake.
Off the solenoid is closed and does not pass gas vapor to the intake.

ECT(V) = The voltage the engine temp sensor is sending back to the computer.

ECT(øF) = The temp the computer takes the above voltage to be in Fahrenheit. Can also display in Centigrade.

ENGINE SPD = The engine rpm when the readings are taken.

EVP(V) = The voltage the EGR position sensor is sending back to the computer.

EVP(%) = The percent the computer thinks the EGR valve is open.

FUELPW1(mS) 5.5 = The time the fuel injector is on in mS.

IAC(%) 38 = The percent the computer thinks the IAC valve is open.

IAT(V) 2.8 = The voltage the IAT sensor is sending back to the computer.

IAT(øF) 82 = The temp the computer takes the above voltage to be in Fahrenheit. Can also display in Centigrade.

LOOP STATUS Open = The computer is in open or closed loop.

O2SEN 1(V) 0.10 = The voltage the O2 sensor is sending back to the computer.

SPARK(ø) 24 = Spark advance from base timing in degrees.

ST FTRM1(%) 8 = Short-term Fuel Trim calculated value that has a positive percentage is a rich fuel trim and if a negative percentage is present the fuel trim is lean.

TOT(V) 2.6 = The voltage the TOT sensor is sending back to the computer.

TOT(øF) 88 = The temp the computer takes the above voltage to be in Fahrenheit. Can also display in Centigrade.

TP MODE C/T = The mode the computer thinks the Throttle Position sensor is in. There are three modes for the Throttle Position sensor, they are C/T-CLOSED THROTTLE, P/T-PART THROTTLE & O/T-WIDE OPEN THROTTLE.

TPS(V) 0.8 = The voltage the TPS sensor is sending back to the computer.

VPWR(V) 14.3 = The battery voltage that the computer is seeing.

VREF(V) 5.0 = The voltage the Voltage Regulator in the computer is putting out.

VSS(MPH) 0 = How fast the computer thinks you are going in MPH.

================================================== =========================

Some of the abbreviations in the above:

ECT : Engine coolant temperature sensor.

øF : Degrees Fahrenheit.

SPD : Speed.

EVP : Exhaust gas recirculating Valve Position.

V : Voltage.

% : The percentage that something is open.

FUELPW1 :Fuel Injector Pulsewidth, Bank 1.

IAC : Idle Air Control Actuator.

IAT : Inlet Air Temperature.

LOOP STATUS: FUEL SYSTEM (OPEN or CLSD)Fuel System Status show loop status of fuel system banks.

O2SEN 1: Oxygen Sensor 1 Volts.

SPARK : Spark Advance.

ø : Degrees.

TOT: Transmission Oil Temperature.

TPS: Throttle Position Sensor.

VPWR: Vehicle Power Battery Voltage.

VREF: Vehicle Reference Voltage.

VSS : Vehicle Speed Sensor.
