Proprietary scanners are pretty common, not just Saab. Honda has their own (HDS) system too. The generic scanners read what the DOT has mandated under OBD-2 and occasionally some additional stuff.
But the proprietary scanners can read things that aren't related to engine emmissions controls (like airbags, ABS, & sometimes HVAC systems). They can also make programming changes to the car like new keys or the behavior of door locks.
