How many "Proscan" licenses would I need?

[wizardofid]

I apologize if this sounds like a foolish question. However, after viewing the Proscan website, I was unable to determine how many registered copies of Proscan that I would need in order to run the software to program each of my Uniden scanners (BC780XLT, BCD436HP, BCD536HP, and SDS200). Can they all be run off of just one registered copy of Proscan or would I have to register the software once for each of the scanners that I chose to run?

As long as I'm asking questions... Which of the two versions available for my scanners should I register? Is there any benefit to my getting "RadioFeed" over "Proscan" if I do not have any intention of providing a feed over Broadcastify?

Thanks in advance!

@ProScan would be the definitive source. However, I believe you can run unlimited copies on one computer.

If you're only using locally, then Proscan is what you need.

You only need to purchase it once to program all the different scanner models. In the program menu's, you select the model you wish to program. You can change it at any time and have separate/multiple programming files for every single one.



ProScan is for programming. RadioFeed is used for Streaming - so if you aren't using that, no need to download it.

There is a very generous, fully-unlocked free trial for 30 days so you can take it for a spin to make sure you're happy before you buy. Bob (ProScan) is the BEST for feedback and customer support on here. Cannot recommend it enough.

Does this help clarify things for you?

Yes, very much so... Thank You!

One purchased license @ $50 gives you the ability to install the software on two separate computers. You can run as many instances as you want on each of those computers.

Well, that's useful info! For some reason I had it in my head that I could only put it on the one computer (which at the moment is an HP thin client connected to my SDS200 so I can log into the scanner remotely). I may just put Proscan on the Win11 Parallels virtual machine on my Mac M1 as well...

There is a trick to it though

For each instance, you have to create a new folder (I use C:/program files/) and copy program files into new one. This is necessary for keeping logging and recording files separate for each instance.
