Default Scanner functions

Ok so I picked up the KINGBOLEN OBD2 scanner. This one is a multi car one and not just specifically for Land Rover.
now what functions should I confirm it can do that is specifically for the D2?
I have tested the following so far.

Keyfob programming with the 6 digit code. I had a new key and two older ones that had the stickers inside and this has worked.

Electric break bleed I have tested and I can do this also.

I have also been able to have this do a cluster to ecm odometer sync also.

so what else can I verify ?

Pretty easy to disconnect a wheel sensor and make sure it can read codes, or disconnect a wire to the ABS unit and make sure it can read the codes. Same with the SRS.

Ok so have not had much time on it yet. I have found out from Kingbolen that after the first year the renew fee is $80 if you do not renew all you have access to just the obd2 functions😔.

As I work on multiple vehicles this is still not bad for me.
Here is the scanner on there web page.
