I'm NOT sure what you're asking for. If you want a reference for the definition of a code, & also "Service Notes" which suggest what to test use this site:
https://bmwfault.codes/Lookup

As example, if you want the definition of "2ACB" fault code:
2ACB | DME: DME master relay, activation | msd80 | Engine electronics | View
Here is the link for the Fault Information sheet for that fault (Fault Details, including "Service Notes":
https://bmwfault.codes/DiagView?id=M...E2MzYwMzIwNQ==

Your DME variant is MSD80, so for any DME Fault, see that line. As for 2ACB fault, an issue with DME Main Relay activation usually causes "Crank, NO Start", because the DME is NOT powered when Ignition is on, resulting in NO timing of Spark or Injector Pulse, hence "Crank, NO Start".

I would suggest posting back with the following:
1) Last-7 Characters of your VIN;
2) Primary issue, such as "Crank, NO Start";
3) Make/Model of any Scan Tool or diagnostic software available; if MHD, please attach screenprints or photos of faults read;
4) If you have a Multimeter to test wiring/ electrical components (~ $10 Amazon or HFT);

With that information, we can suggest Next Steps.

Deep OBD is a free Android app that is basically ediabas on mobile. I use it with a THOR Wifi dongle and it works great for reading and deleting codes (despite a very clunky UI). Haven't used it for other things.
