ScanControl

One Program, Multiple Scanners, Made in USA

• Control Channel – An active data Channel frequency programmed into one of the available

Channels in a Trunked Bank.

• Alphanumeric Tags – Bank, Channel and Talkgroup ID information stored in the ScanControl

Data File. The BCT8, BC95XLT, BC245XLT, BC895XLT, BC898T and PRO2052 scanners do

not have memory space for these alphanumeric tags so they are not stored in the radio. The

BC780XLT, BC250D, BC296D, BC785D, BC796D, SC230, BC246T, BR330T, BCD396T,

BCT15 and BCD996T do have memory space for these tags therefore they are stored in the

radio.

• Banks, Channels, Talkgroups, ScanLists, FleetMaps – In Non-DMA radios, the organization

of the scanner’s radio memory. See the table below for the memory organization for each

scanner ScanControl supports. See Appendix B for more details about how Uniden scanner

fixed memory is organized and used.

Logging – ScanControl has detailed function logging. This feature can be turned on or off from the

Main Control Screen. When active each program action is time stamped and logged into a file

(<drive>:\<install directory path>\Scanctrl.log) for history and audit purposes. The log file has a

size maximum of 100KB. When the log reaches 100KB the program automatically archives it into a

time stamped file (e.g. scanctrl071602143220.log) and creates a new, empty log file.

Getting Started

1. Connect scanner to an available PC serial port via the cable supplied by the scanner

manufacturer.

2. Turn scanner power on.
