Hey everyone,
This project has been a long time in the making but is finally almost ready. It just needs to be approved by Apple's app store (shouldn't be much longer....)
What is it:
This is a remote control app for your Uniden DMA scanner. Compatible with iPhone/iPod with iOS 5.1 and higher. It will operate on an iPad but not in native mode.
How it works:
Connect your scanner to FreeSCAN and start virtual control. Enable remote access (will be available in version 2.17). Then tell the app your computer's IP address and control your scanner. You can have several sessions going on concurrently and can view and manipulate your scanner. Access can be set for open to the world or by username/password combo. You can use it to remote control any scanner that FreeSCAN controls. If you have multiple scanners, you can start up multiple sessions of FreeSCAN and assign them different network ports.
More detailed instructions will be made available, including controlling your scanner remotely over the internet in short time.
Streaming Audio
The app will stream audio when used in conjuction with something like Scannercast running on the host PC.
Performance
I have used this on a 3G connection and it works reasonably well without too much lag. It's not quite the same as sitting in front of your scanner and I wouldn't suggest programming a system into the scanner using the app but for many common control functions it's fluid and easy to use.
