Diagnostic kit for AE111; electronics

I want to buy a diagnostic system for the ae111. Something I can check fault codes plus ideally see some basic performance/sensor information.
I was hoping to buy a Toyota 16 pin link the OBD2 link and then a CD rom for the 20v engine. Maybe I could download a programme for my laptop?
Otherwise it's buy a cheap scanner suitable for the ae111.
I'm new to this but keen to learn, any options /opinions?

No scanners as such so people normally count the flash codes by bridging TE1 to E1 on the diagnostic port. There's a how too guide on here give a search for it and it'll have all the info you need.

We have a Toyota obd1 scanner at work (Toyota) but good luck finding one out of a dealership.
The tech is just too old and all of the signals are analogue which makes it that much more harder.
Where as obd2 have mostly digital sensor signals.

All clear now. Would be nice to have a scanner but hard to find a Toyota one that old! I wonder of anyone has produced some software that would allow real time data for the Levin though; that would be great to have.

Youll need to search for a generic obd1 scanner. But as I say a module will have to be created to convert the analogue signals to a digital waveform so it can be read on the computer. In turn can potentially be rather expensive.
