BMW Scanner 1.4.0 and INPA K+DCAN cable, which is better?

My vehicle:
BMW X5 E53 3.0L 2002 200K KM North American

Aim:
Read BMW specific error codes to diagnose ABS, Brake, DSC traffic lights issue that I have right now. Or any other future issue with my car.

My Experience:
Never hook up my car on computer stuff. This is the first time. I am not looking for coding right now.

My current understanding:
My car had K-line interface, I should get a USB cable not serial cable. Audi q5 2016 navigation update download.

BMW Scanner 1.4.0 can be downloaded from our website for free. BMW Scanner lies within System Utilities, more precisely Device Assistants. This program is an intellectual property of P.A.Soft Group. The following versions: 1.4, 1.3 and 1.2 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users. Jan 18, 2017  BMW INPA Download & Install on Windows XP/ Vista/ 7/ 8/ 10. Posted on January 18, 2017 by sales. BMW INPA Ediabas 5.0.2 download, inpa 5.06 download, inpa 6.4.7 download hereand install it on Windows XP/ Vista or Windows 7/ 8/ 10 (32bit or 64bit), to get it work with K+DCAN USB cable. Running inpa software on BMW E46, E90.

My confusion:
Which cable and software should I use? Where can I go for it? I am not willing spent large amount of money on professional devices. I will mess it up.

Cable options I see online
BMW scanner V1.4.0 interface
INPA K+DCAN USB cable

Software options I see online
PA-soft
INPA
I post my information and intention on forums, these are the answers I got:

Member 1:
PA Soft (BMW Scanner) MUST have a PA Soft interface to work.
The D/K CAN (may) work with BMW software. I say may as I generally avoid crap shoot interfaces for cheap prices.

Member 2:
The BMW Scanner 1.4.0 needs its own cable. It cannot use a generic OBD to USB interface cable.
Member 3:
—– BMW SCANNER 1.4 for people who do not want to complicate long life, you can do many things but not all

—– EDIABAS INPA complicated of get it going, complicated to handle, but you can do all or most of what they do in the once, and increasingly now that VMware wheel ISIS professional tool …. (INPA) vs Interface for the whole family (BMW SCANNER)

Member 4:
I have downloaded the Pa-soft software and downloaded the cable driver for the Win 7 32 bit version and manually install it you can get it working. I prefer BMW Scanner 1.4.

Member 5:
I know 1.4.0 supports models:
E38 (7′)
E39 (5′)
E46 (3′)
E53 (X5)
E83 (X3)
E85 (Z4)
and 2.0.1 supports:
E60/E61(5′)
E63/E64(6′)
E65-E68(7′)
E70/E71(X5/X6)
E81/E82/E87/E88(1′)
E90-E93(3′)
BMW OBD2 Scanner 2.20 k+Dcan supports the same models, or it support more earlier models like 1.4.0. and that is the difference between 2.0.1 versus 2.20 k+Dcan in function range, coding ant etc. 2.20 k+Dcan to work on newer models need to remove pin 8 from obd connector.
When I first used BMW Scanner 1.4 I fell in love from first time. But I took a week to load, translate, read, try INPA software….after few more cars I learned been faster.

So PA-soft is simple, INPA is VARY complicated.

Member 6,7,8….
But I have made up my mind to buy both this two cheap cables (38 bucks from obd365) and make my own comments in the next few weeks.

V1.4.0 is the update version of BMW Scanner. The required operating system is Windows XP. But I have hooked it up successfully on Dell 360 Windows 7 64 bit system. Following are my attempts, you can have a try.

1) First of all, install BMW scanner software

2) Plug the BMW scanner V1.4.0 interface to your vehicle’s OBD2 socket after complete software installation, but do not connect it with your PC/laptop at this time

3) Wait several seconds and plug the interface to the computer USB port

4) Download FTDI driver on the http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm web site. It is not difficult to perform according to the window instructions.

5) A black DOS message will show up and then install the driver after downloaded it on your computer.

6) Go back to the main program, find out device manager and click BMW Scanner to select driver software you want to update.
7) Select “Browse my computer for driver software”>> “Universal serial bus controllers”>> “FTDI driver” >> “USB Serial Converter”, then accept window prompt to go on operation
