@ProScan I'm noticing the "RRDB Difference" column isn't staying set to how big/small I set it on each editor reload. Is it possible to add something like that?

Screenshot showing it opened by default

Screenshot showing how I want it to stay when I open it and not restoring to default


The letters it shows inside the resized tablebox doesn't matter to me. Just want to make it smaller since I don't typically update stuff very often

I'll look at it before the next release.

I'm still struggling a bit trying to understand the workflow with UID logging. My goal is to have UID Names in a favorites list. So as transmissions come in and I identify them, I fill in the "UID After Lookup (Editable)" field. Once I've filled some in, I'll select all and "copy selected rows to database" ...

The problem is that this results in duplicates in the favorites list, because many UIDs will already be in the list from previous runs. Is there a quick way to get data into the favorites list without creating duplicates?

Or, a better question might be - what do other peoples' workflows look like when doing this? Am I missing something?

Edit/add your UID's as you go in your favourites list. Save your favourites list. Then upload it to the scanner, then reboot and they'll take into effect. In your logging screen. Delete the line that you edited or noticed the ID. Then when it shows up, it'll show up in the correct location in your logging activities.

Do you have different Unit ID Names for the same Unit ID? If so then that will create a duplicate. It seems like it's working as designed and it caught using different names for the same ID.

Reconrider, I thought this may have been a bug but now that I had a chance to look at it, it's by design so I don't think I will be doing any work in this area. Sorry about that.

I found a problem. When copying UIDs to the FL, the UID # will show either text or '0' depending on the options set. That was because the 'Copy / Move Selected UID Rows' dialog was more geared to the DMA scanner types. Next ver. 21.2 will copy the UID #. See the image on what it will be like in the next version 21.2. I don't know if that will resolve your problem or not but wait and see.

A couple of ways to prevent duplicates in the FL.
1. In the UID Logging tab, the 'UID Before Lookup' column will show the UID number if the UID isn't programmed in the FL and will show the UID Name if programmed in the FL. So based on that, sort the 'UID Before Lookup' column by clicking the column header. The numbers will be grouped together (since 0 to 9 comes before A to z). Select the rows with the numbers in the 'UID Before Lookup' column. The numbers in the 'UID Before Lookup' column shouldn't already be programmed in the FL since they are numbers and not names. Click the 'Copy / Move Selected Rows...' button and take it from there.

2. Select all rows then click the 'Copy / Move Selected Rows...' button. After they have been imported to the FL then click the Utilities menu and click on 'Find Duplicates. Select 'Trunk UIDs' for the Find Duplicates Item.

If I’ve already named the unit, and it has the name in the first column, I won’t fill it in again in the second column. Is this the problem? The editable column is different because it’s null and that’s how it’s getting in there?

ProScan Version 21.2 Just Released!
  • Added - Double clicking database tree nodes now toggles nodes to expand or collapse.
  • Changed - History Log option "Delete < 2 Seconds ..." Now selectable 1 to 10 seconds.
  • Changed - Recorder option "Delete < 2 Seconds ..." Now selectable 1 to 10 seconds.
  • Changed - UID Logging with HP and SDS scanners - Now using the actual UID number from the scanner instead of the UID name to determine a match and eliminate duplicates.
  • Fixed - Copying UID logging rows to the Favorites Lists wasn't copying the UID number.
  • Fixed - P25 conventional VHF systems weren't logging the NAC on DMA scanners due to missing NAC in the scanner protocol.

Just updated to ProScan 21.2 and I'm finding that the UID's are no longer showing up in the history logging. Used the older version for a while and they were showing up fine. Did a setting change?

Yes, go into the Options - Logging tab then the History Grid section. See that the UID Column is set properly.
Are they logging in the UID Logging tab?
What type of scanner?
