Scan125 Control Program Suite Scan125 Icon

Supported Scanners: Uniden UBC125XLT, BC125AT, UBC126AT and Albrecht AE125H

The Scan125 Control Program  is currently Freeware with a Careware/Charity status and objective. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Careware).                    

Please Donate to my supported charity which I would very much appreciate, as will they, and will keep me developing and supporting the programs.

The Scan125 Control Program Suite consists of  two programs.  Then main Scan125 Control Program and the Scan125Convert Utility Program

The project started in November 2013 with the first public non beta release in April 2014.  Since then Scan125 has been regularly developed and supported into the product you see today with many of the features and functions being implemented in response to user requests.  Since it's inception and release it has supported scanning real time control and virtual console/display function. 

Up to 25 August 2018 Scan125 had over 3500 registered users in 57 countries.  Since then and with V2.5.0.0 onwards the free registration is no longer required.  The number of users continues to grow and is a very welcome endorsement of the program's growth and equally important the feedback and encouragement I have received from so many people.  Usage data can be see here.  Thank you all!

It would be really great to be world famous and earn millions of pounds from doing crappy software but it is not going to happen so until I win the lottery I'll have to be poor and boring.

Scan125 was the FIRST EVER! program to:
These programs run on Windows up to and including Windows 11.

Scan125ConvertUtility Program is currently Freeware.

Both programs work individually of each other and each has their own version numbers and release cycles.

Please note that the Scan125 Control Program also requires the separate installation of the necessary Uniden Serial Driver which is also available on THIS website in the Scan125 Download location.

For Apple PC/MAC users using BOOTCAMP, PARALLELS or VMware to run Windows then by using the latest version the Scan125 Control Program you should be able to run Scan125 on your system.  If not then please let me know.

Scan125 Current Release Information

Antivirus Programs and False Positives

Note! I check all my software before uploading with Malwarebytes Pro and Microsoft Windows Defender Antivirus.  In addition I use VirusTotal.com to confirm as they have over 60 scanner engines.  Despite these actions you may find that your AntiVirus/Security software may flag my software.  This is generally because I use a source protection obfuscater which confuses them. 

In the table below you will find the MD5, SHA256 signatures and also the VirusTotal.com SHA256 report for Scan125 files.  You should check these reports for yourself and then decide if you want to create an exception in your AV software.  If you are still unsure or unhappy then please file a false positive report with your Antivirus Software Vendor.

Debra Logo      Please Donate to my supported charity which I would very much appreciate, as will they, and will keep me developing and supporting the programs.

The Program is currently Freeware (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeware) with a Careware/Charity status and objective (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Careware).  It operates with no limitations.  The author reserves the right to change the program status and limitations on any future release.  Existing releases will retain their status and your right to use them but support may not be available.

The Uniden UBC125XLT is a European region orientated scanner.  The BC125AT is the equivalent US reqion orientated scanner.  The UBC126AT is the equivalent Australia/New Zealand region orientated scanner.  They are very similar but not identical.  The Albrecht AE125H scanner is a licensed and branded clone of the Uniden UBC125XLT scanner for the European market..

This program supports the UBC125XLT, BC125AT, UBC126AT and AE125H scanners.  I must be point out that as I do not have the BC125AT, UBC126AT and AE125H scanners I have relied on people who have these scanners being very helpful in testing and reporting issues.  If you find a problem/issue with any of the supported scanners then *please* let me know so I can try and resolve it.

Scan125 written in Visual Basic and .NET V4.5.  The program is currently portable and will run from any "user" directory it is placed in.  It also currently makes no registry changes or any other system changes, no required network connections etc. so is benign in nature and operation and protects your privacy.  If a Windows system directory, like Program Files, is chosen then administrator rights will have to be assigned to the program.  For security reasons it is suggested/recommended that a User directory is chosen.

The program also makes no hidden calls home and will not automatically check for program updates by default.  There are however some functions that the user can manually invoke which will make a URL connection to my Scan125 website.  Also a program option can be set to allow it to check my websites for updates every "n" days, as set by user.

The Program also requires the installation of the Uniden_Universal_Driver USB/serial driver which is available for download on this site.

For Apple PC/MAC users using BOOTCAMP, PARALLELS or VMware to run Windows then from Version 1.8.0.0 of the Scan125 Control Program  you should be able to run Scan125 on your system.  If not then please let me know.
