Default Scan tool question

Will the scan tool be able to tell me if my knock meters are registering and how much if I have it connected while on the dyno? I"m considering buying a wideband since I have two blown cars and was thinking of picking up a scan tool if it would help me when I'm tuning. More specifically, I'm interested in reducing timing as I add alcohol. If there's knock, then I'll know to back off or add more alky.

TTS Datamaster has knock counters plus a spark retard indicator.

how much is it for one of those?

Do most scan tools have the capability to read the knock meters?
