Question Disable DRL with Factory Scan Tool - How To?

I know this forum is littered with DRL posts and most of them are unnecessary repeats of the same questions. But I think that this may be the first time someone has inquired as to the process of disabling them with the factory Lexus Scan Tool (Lexus version of Mastertech). I have access to one and have already gone through and adjusted all my door lock settings to the way I want them. But I can not find where to disable the DRL. Anyone have a copy of this procedure or knows FOR SURE that is can or can not be done?

P.S. I am well versed in the legal and safety implications involved in this mod. I also have read Wwest's jumper wire post and will that route if this is not possible.

I don't think you can disable it with the scanner. You gotta do it manually with the jumper mod.
