Yes you will use the "Remote scanner over IP" tab to be able to control from work.
Get your Local IP address for the computer.
There are a couple ways of doing this, the easiest way is to go to the tab "Source Client / Web Server" Tab page in Proscan and when you do you will see anther two tabs below the other tabs. Choose the "Web Server" then you will see a button "Get My IP", click that and it will give you the Local and Outside IP addresses. Write down the
Local one, this is the address we need to tell the router to forward the port to.
Now log into your router and on the left side you should see a "Port Forwarding / Port Triggering" (
It will be under advanced in the pictures that I'm looking at) After clicking that you should see a Radio Button for Port Forwarding and anther for Port Triggering. Put the dot into the "Port Forwarding" radio button.
You will see a button at the bottom that says "Add Custom Service" Hit it. Now you it will ask for a "Service Name" You can name it whatever you like but 'Proscan' would be a good choice.
The next would Protocol use the drop down menu and choose "TCP"
Now you have the "Starting Port" and "Ending Port", use Proscan's default of 5000 in both places.
"Server IP Address" use the address that you wrote down earlier.
Hit the apply button and you should be done with the router side of things.
In Proscan go to the "Remote scanner over IP" tab page.
Mode choose the radio button for Server.
Server make sure the "Server Port" is 5000
Give it a password (this is only used to control the scanner you can still have listeners that can connect to the scanner without the password)
Hit the "Get my IP" button this will fill in the "Published Server IP Addre. or Name" for you
Select your Country, State and County / Region.
Publish Description give your server a brief description.
and Finally hit the "Start button"
