Solved! Thanks for quick email response!
Gotta say, Outstanding bit of software.
Undertaking a new scanning station that will also be casting, few SDS200's and around 6 or so SDR's ; for managing the SDS's Proscan just makes quality of life simple. End goal - what I really want, would be for Proscan to be the recording /archiving and streaming solution across both SDS's and SDR's, will update as things progress, but just wanted to again say how nice it is to use a mature-stable and easy to use bit of kit, great job.

In ProScan there is a Top Level Menu "Scanner Type"

Can I use the Remote Control Over IP to just stream the SDS200 audio?
It does not have the delay the web server does.
I want to listen to my scanner from my Note 8 or my iPhone 8
I tried it using Custom Radio Player app on Android and does not connect
Probably not setup to but wanted to ask

The RSOIP (Remote Scanner Over IP) feature requires ProScan RSOIP in client mode or the Free ProScan Client at the far end so it will not work on mobile devices.
The Web Server feature latency is produced by the media player network buffer. If using the Web Server, you may want to try using a different media player with reduced latency. WinAmp (WIn OS flavor) latency is around 3 seconds. There's also an option on the web page "Metadata Delay". That will delay the web page display and text tags so the audio will appear in sync.

Guess I forgot VLC can stream!
In the past I have setup my Linux Box to stream via IceCast and DarkIce those had a fair delay too though.
I may just use as is - If I can find the Delay The Data will be in sync for nicer setup

Thanks Again I see on the Web Page I connect "from" !

I'm trying to understand PS and how it handles logging, specifically, RSSI readings.
While there's traffic, RSSI readings fluctuate. When the transmission is over, PS records the highest reading.
Is there a way for PS to as an alternative, record the lowest RSSI?
I'm trying to determine the best filter/squelch combination when receiving a particular system.
As of now, I'm making a list of the lowest RSSI readings, with varying filters and squelch settings.
I'm monitoring a P25 simulcast system.
I'm making a list, and writing down, the results.
However, I'm bothered by not knowing how either the radio or PS, handles this data.
I feel that, in this endeavor, digital errors also plays a role, but, PS, doesn't have this feature. Maybe it is not important, maybe the radio itself does not allow the software to record this, maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way and instead, should focus on the RSSI readings.
I'm using an SDS 200.
Your thoughts and opinions, welcome.

ProScan logs the RSSI as sent from the scanner. ProScan doesn't log the highest RSSI.
I get what you say, but, as I'm monitoring in real time, I see the RSSi fluctuate to lower numbers than PS records. At the end of the transmission, that's where I see PS record the highest number overall.
You can compare the RSSI values received from the scanner. Go to the Test & Extra tab and look for the Rssi= property. Another way is go to the Options -> General tab then check the option "Scanner Data To Scanner Data.txt File" box then look at the Scanner Data.txt file.
ProScan records the very last RSSI value before the transmission ends, not the "highest" observed. Understand that what ProScan is doing is simply logging the info that comes across the connection to the scanner in real time, which is observable by watching the Test & Extras screen. Nothing more, nothing less.
Is the RSSI= Property a protocol command?
Once I check the "Scanner Data to Scanner Data. txt File" box, where do I go to look the results for it?
