AutoTap Sample Rate

I just bought a used Autotap with USB but only the generic OBD2 software. I noticed it only scans a single parameter about once a second which isn't very useful. Does the enhanced version scan quicker?

I noticed that Autotap can only sample one thing every .02 to .03 of a second. This means you can only have it check about 4 things every .1 of a second. I wish Datamaster would make a OBD2 scanner that is as good as their OBD1 is but that's never going to happen. Only programs that pull data from the bus can read everything all the time.
