Idle ReLearn...questions

Hey Guys/Gals if any,
I have two questions that maybe someone will shed some light for me.I recently had to replace the starter in my car and had to do the idle relearn procedure.I have a OTC scanner (2000) and it doesnt have the mode to relearn the idle in it,and I was wondering what scanner would have this option,cause it would be must easier this way?

Another question I have while I was doing the manual way to relearn,I was thinking what if you had a lower fan switch would this affect the procedure in anyway since they say to wait for the fan to come on ,and then off.What is the purpose of waiting for the fan to come on and off?

A Tech1 or Tech2 are the only scan tools that I know of for an idle learn.
