ProScan: Official Software Thread

[ProScan]

ProScan Version 1.7 Build 2 includes the RadioReference Imports feature, improved Scanner Over IP, and bug fixes.

Supported scanners are the BCD996T, BC796D, BC785D, BC780XLT, BC296D, and the BC250D.

I'm thriving to make this the best Computer Aided Scanning program and suggestions are very much appreciated.

Have you checked the Comm Port, URL Setup, Auto Detect IP Scanners and made sure the TX/RX numbers are changing? Does the scanner have a static IP address set?

Scanner is a SDS100 so the URL/IP part doesn't apply but thanks for helping.

What version Proscan are you using.

23.5, updated firmware and database today while I was connected to Sentinel. This problem is the only reason I connected to Sentinel and did the updates.

Updated to 23.5 this morning, Windows 11 (Windows defender) quarantined it as severe threat

Detected:Behavior:Win/Execution.A!ml

file:C:\ProScan\ProScan.exe

Odd. I rolled back to 23.4 which had no issues with W11 security. Not sure if it's a known issue or what, searched and couldn't find anything. Just thought I'd bring it to your attention.

23.5 works fine for me.

Hi All, I’ve noticed that running a lot of files/folders with the web server has a high CPU usage. Is there any way other than to trim the files to get a lower CPU usage?

I’ve also been running an old version 14 for a long time, and updated to the latest now. But when playing back in the recorder, it can take a good two seconds to play the file after clicking play. If you select a bunch of recordings, it always pauses a good two seconds between each one. Any ideas to make it playback immediately like the older version?

How do you use the Test Tab?

 

[buddrousa]

The test tab shows the data stream the software receives from the scanner

Thanks. What is the protocol command for?

From the manual...

• Protocol Command - Enter any protocol command
• Send - Click Send to send the protocol command to the scanner.

Sending protocol commands. Try MDL, STS, GLG
