Can VVDI MB Program Mercedes W221 All Keys Lost?

Question: I have Mercedes Benz W221 without keys. I tried to read data with VVDI MB Tool, no success with or without power adapter. I have cable for W221. With that cable I can read EIS with IR, but not with OBD. VVDI MB cannot connect. I also have VVDI prog, but I cannot find how connect to this unit. It is almost like W164, but it is little bit different.
According to Xhorse support this unit is not readable by any VVDI device. For reference I uploaded images.

Xhorse vvdi prog missing 3.3v pin?

One question about Xhorse vvdi progwhy is the 3.3v pin missing and the others are there when i look on the internet the 12v and 5v pin is absent and the 3.3v is there.
vvdi-prog-3-3-pin
Xhorse chief engineer replied:
This does not affect the usage. The 3.3v pin is cut off when it leaves the factory, in the past, some customers accidentally short-circuited the power PIN, which will cause short circuit of the VVDI Pro device.
