ITool Radar — BMW ICOM discovery & reservation utility (x86/x64)​

Lightweight SLP browser to find, reserve, and release BMW ICOM/VCI devices on your network.

Quick intro
ITool Radar is a small Service Location Protocol (SLP) utility used in BMW diagnostic setups to discover ICOM/VCI devices, view their status and properties, and reserve or release a device for exclusive use by ISTA, E-Sys or other tools.
