Does anyone use SOLUS Pro scanner from Snapon tools?
Are the codes teh same as on RossTech. I'm Finding terminology between VAG/Ross/Solus very confusing.
For example seems that ECU Power Relay, ESC calls it Load Reduction Relay. It's been called a few things. Audi calls it Voltage Supply Relay and scan in VCDS calls it ECU Power Relay.

I'm using Verus-Pro from Snap-on, which has he same menus as your Solus-Pro and I don't have a problem with the terminology they use, maybe because I'm used to it from the old days when Snap-on MT2400 ruled (I still have it). :)
If you're serious about diagnosing VAG cars you should get VCDS as well, it's great and it supplements the Snap-on scanner, since some things are better and faster done with the Snap-on, especially on older models.
