WS1095 EZ SCAN Software update 2.06 is out

[wise871]

FYI
New version 2.06 Ez Scan Application is out.

Bug Fixes:
-Fixed issue where some sub-windows would disappear behind the main window. This then made the application appear to be frozen.
-Fixed an issue when copying or moving audio files to your computer when the channel alpha tag has an invalid character in it.
-Made code changes to help reduce issues when screen resolutions other than the standard 96dpi setting is used.

Operation:
-Changed default attenuation mode to Normal from Global
-Changed the default display mode from Simple to Advanced.
-The Advanced Features, Conventional Frequencies, and Trunked Radio Systems tabs are now shown by default for new installations.
-Added "Reset Alpha Tags" button. This option will reset all scanlist names to their factory default values (i.e. Scanlist 001).
-Moved the selection tabs from the bottom to the top of the screen.
-Changed the menu items used to save and restore an archive of the current configuration to "Save Current Configuration to Archive" and "Restore Configuration from Archive" respectively.
-Some color has been added to the list boxes on all screens.
-Column sizes may now be adjusted on some screens. These column sizes are not preserved across programming sessions.

Data Import:
-When an import is completed using the preferred method, a selection dialog appears with options to return to the current state, return to the current county, return to the select location screen, or done. The presence of these buttons depends on the selection of a state, selection of a county, and if the Set Location feature is turned on.
-Added Icon Legend button to import screens to explain the meaning of the checkbox icons that may appear on the current screen.
-Added text on the trunked system selection screen to explain how to select an entire system or limit what sites and talkgroups are to be imported.
-Importing a trunked system is now a step by step process following the progression of System->Sites->Talkgroups

I think these are great changes .. in particular the showing of the tabs by default. I think that makes the program a lot easier to use.

Yes, thanks for the heads-up. I updated EZScan for my WS1080 too. I like the tabs on top and all on. Being able to tab across columns is still not there for some reason but the program is much better than day one when I bought this.

My WS1095 won't update to the 2.06. What am I doing wrong? Now this is the CPU that we are talking about isn't it? Thank you for any help in advance.

This is just an application update, not a firmware update.

Will this update be ported to iScan as well?

Nothing so far, wait and see...

Thank you.

I assume this is unrelated to the 800 scanner?
Thanks!

I wanted to see what version of EZScan I had. This is what I found in my program files, but 2.3.0.352 can't be right.

Mine shows 2.6.0.367. Looks like the update didn't install correctly for you.

The point is he said the new update is 2.06 - Two point ZERO six. That's a long way from either my old 2.3 or your 2.6, is it not?

Best way to check your version is to go into the EZ-Scan program and use the "Help" drop down menu. The last "About" item will give your product version.

That 2.6xxx quoted above is the program updater version. If you go into the details section the product version will show up correctly as 2.06.

I'd like to see it possible to scroll around the frequency tables with your keys to select different cells. As it is right now, it's a pain to constantly use the mouse to select the next cell and then highlight the text. It should be programmed to function more like an Excel spreadsheet. Also I would like to see up/down arrows that would allow for objects to be re-ordered, much like Don Starr's software.

Look at my screen shot a couple of posts back. In the TYPE column it says APPLICATION, not Installer.
Also, where is the DETAILS section?

I for one had to uninstall my old version and then install the new version before it would actually upgrade.

Mine is the correct 2.06 version now .. and works just fine.

Right click on the file you're referencing. Drop down to Properties and click. The box will open with about 5 tabs at the top, depending on your version of Windows. Open the "Details" tab. The info as I explained above should be there.

OK. Thanks. I see it now, but it still says Application, not installer - very confusing.

The 2.06 is just how it's displayed. If the version was 2.10.0.400 it would be displayed as 2.10. In this case 2.6.0.367 and 2.06 are the same thing, just shown a little differently. Simple as that.

Well, it's time to leave this discussion because I will never understand how Installer and Application mean the same thing and 2.06 and 2.6 are equal.
