Here is some code I threw together in a few minutes using Lazarus and FreePascal and the Synapse library.

It has a timer of 1/2 second sends the GLG command to the scanner and displays the rcvd data in a memo box. I will be adding to it this weekend giving it config and autosizing fonts and etc based on windows size. I want to be able to see the scanner info from across the room.

Wanted to throw some sample code out there to inspire others as I could not find any.

Code:
procedure TForm1.Timer1Timer(Sender: TObject);

var
ser: TBlockSerial;
rawmessage: string;
begin
ser := TBlockSerial.Create;
try
ser.ConvertLineEnd := True;
ser.Connect('COM4');
ser.config(115200, 8, 'N', 0, False, False);
ser.sendstring('GLG' + #13#10);
if (ser.LastError <> 0) then
Exit;

rawmessage := ser.Recvstring(4000);

if pos('GLG,,,,,', rawmessage) > 0 then
begin
memo1.Clear;
memo1.Lines.Add('Scanning....');

end
else
begin
memo1.Clear;
memo1.Lines.Add(rawmessage);

end;
finally
ser.Free;
end;

end;

Here is a newer version of source and screen shot object is to see info across the room when receiving transmission.

Very basic maybe others can use.

unit Unit1;

uses

Want to test the program or use it?

Its pretty simple.

Select the com port when starting then click Connect to Scanner.

This opens up a 800*600 window

When a transmission is received on the scanner it displays the info on the computer in a large font that is easy to read.

Its a self contained exe no installer just run it that's it.

Publish the source code in posts is bad idea.
99.9 percent are not programmers and do not understand what is written here.
99.441 percent of programmers not use the pascal (proof)
Any way, thanx.

Not really posting the code may help others who can use it as a starting point for other programing languages.

Pascal at least free pascal is open and free for anyone to use and the lazarus IDE is as good as most of the paid ones.

Because it is free its a great hobbyist language.

Somewhere in this room. Right now, you're very col
What Vonskie said. Code is code is code and regardless of what language it's written in, a programmer who is also a good Googler can figure out how to convert it to their preferred development language. I plan to experiment with this if I get enough time this weekend. They always go by way too fast... I'd like to make something that runs on Android for the scanner as I have a whole mess of older Android devices that largely just sit around.

Anyway if anyone wants the program let me know and I will send a working version to you compiled exe.

It now has text to speech using the MS Text to speech should work with windows 7 and 8 have no clue about XP. It reads the department and channel name. Now you do not even have to look at the monitor.

Yes it was fun tinkering, first digital scanner I have owned.

Wish they would publish a doc file on all the commands for the 436 and 536 scanners.

Have a great day

Why wouldn't this work with other scanners?

It should work on any uniden scanner that accepts the GLG command via serial interface and returns the data in a similar format.

Currently I have the baudrate set to 115200 that might have to be lowered for older scanners, do not know. Its hard coded right now.

And if it does not work the code can serve as a starting point for writing your own.
