Well... the description is somewhat vague, but I tend to believe it doesn't work with the '94/'95 TS. These cars are not OBDI NOR OBDII...
Also, with that price (more than 10% the value of my car) I would not use it :)
There are lots of circuits on the net, some very complex, some very simple. I opted for the middle ground, and built this one: http://www.techedge.com.au/vehicle/aldl8192/8192hw.htm Seems to work fine with some of the programs available. Total cost buying the parts from Digikey was less than $20. Add to that a good piece of software (i.e. EFI Live) and you are well under $60
You'll need a PC with a serial port or a good serial-to-USB converter... the cheapest ones can not handle the baud rate required by these interfaces.

I just bought an Actron CP9145 in the US, the device sait 4 error codes but (2 current and 2 history): (trans sport 3.8 dec/94)
P0325 Ign syst prob
Electonic Spark Control,
ESC failure
if this the device just underneath the ignition coils, it has been replaced by a brand new one a few month ago, strange...
P0342 Ign syst prob
Camshaft sensor
Sensor failure
I guess it's only the camshaft sensor, could it be that this sensor generates a ESC error ?
Any suggestion will be very welcome !!
Thanks

Google those codes or do a site search there are several causes for both.

P0325 Knock Sensor1 Circ Error (bank1/ Sensor 1)
P0342 Camshaft Pos Sensor Circ Lo Input (bank1/Sensor 1)

knock sensor disconnected... the van pulls like crazy now ! in no way to compare... thanks for your hint, just bought this tool so didn't know exactly how to proceed, is pretty easy !!
camshaft position sensor is weak, engine light comes back after driving but will be solved soon !

@GWCE: I highly recommend starting a new thread when you are asking questions not 100% in line to what is being discussed. More than a few people who could offer you some fantastic advise will probably miss your post.

yes it's right, sorry for this, I'm not really a specialist in IT, I thought it might already exist but couldn't find it...
I would also like to share this little experience, it might be helpfull to others.
I ran the van today over 50 miles today (distances in Europe are short most of the time) it's really great to have this US car kicking all these french Renault Espace again like this !! I really appréciate american cars, thanks a lot to you guys !!
Tornado 74, Eldorado Northstar 11/93, same 97, + Essex Terraplane Eight 1933 !

I didn't realize you were in France! :D
I for one still miss my Citroen CX, would love to find a GS somewhere near here, and would really, really, REALLY like put my hands on a C6 Lignale :( And my Twingo had more rear space than my Saturn, too...
Oh well...
