Scan125 Control Program Suite
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 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.

Scan125
Control Program (for Uniden
UBC125XLT, BC125AT/UBC126AT and Albrecht AE125H Scanners)
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.
