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.

Curious as to reduce load time. I keep audio and history on a DFS. On reboots it takes 15 minutes plus to start past the splash screen. Any way to see what the high load time is? I suspect its my history.txt file that is over 384Mb. The audio files only date back 9-25-25 after I screwed up a domain merge. The total in audio files is just over 59Gb.

I am running v24.8; I would like to keep all this data, but would like to find ways to get it to load back up faster after updates. The DFS and network isn't an apparent issue. DFS will transfer on average 66Mb under worst case possible load using single stream, 110.625 MB/s on multi-stream.

probably the audio. I've noticed my one instance that has very little recording loads faster than the one that has a thousand or so.

It's probably the recording files. You should see "Loading Recordings Data . . ." When loading, additional checks are performed such as max recording time and file missing.

For anyone using the location rectangles copy & paste:
There was a problem with coping multiple rows. The problem is is fixed. Please download version 24.8 again. The file version is 24.8.0.2

Thanks for adding the Average RSSI column.
....
Dropping the last few frames from the average value calc might be even better.

The scanner has a bug and reports invalid values, such as -1001. Any values that are outside the range of 0 to -130 are invalid and should be ignored for both the instantaneous and average value reporting by Proscan. I've sent this to Proscan as a suggestion. This small change would make Proscan signal logging much more useful.

Folks,
I'm looking for suggestions and potential bugs for the next version or future versions. Post it here or email me at support@proscan.org.

The next version (24.9) has the following so it's probably not enough for a full release so I want to add to it.

• Added - Importing the Sentinel Database now can select the location.
• Changed - Recorder tab 'Save All Rows' button changed to 'Save Selected Rows'.
• Fixed - Nationwide systems imported from the RRDB wasn't importing correctly if a State/Province wasn't selected.
• Fixed - The Folder Browser dialog window wasn't scrolling to the selected folder.

The ability to log USB voltages 1 and 2 for the SDS100/200 for those of us using Openscanner firmware to detect encryption algorithms and KIDs.

Thank you!

Option to auto-renew standard Letsencrypt certs.
Option to issue the new Letsencrypt IP address certs with the short-lived profile (6 days), with auto-renewal.

The IP address certs might be helpful for those who don't want to register a domain name and just hit their public IP directly.

Thank you

I see a "USB Vbus Voltage" in the Sentinel Display Editor. Where do you see 1 and 2?
{edit} Is the info in the protocol.

Nevermind on the questions. I work on this next. It will be in the History Logging.

Haven't encountered any, on my end. @ProScan I can only say, 'keep up the good work'.

Feature request:
In the recorder tab, can the 'Hits' column and the 'Avg RSSI' column be added to the list like they are in the history logging?

Also, can it be made so that we can delete or hide certain columns instead of just moving them?

Thanks

Feature request: Can you add an option in the Utilities -> Update Tags screen for Center Justify the SDS 150 Screen which I believe is 24 characters wide?

It's already in. Does it work?

I'm on version 24.8 and don't see it. Is there a newer version of ProScan that I haven't noticed?

It's been in since the SDS150 was released. You have SDS200 selected and not SDS150.

Well don't I feel foolish! Thanks! I'll just crawl back under my rock now....
