MacScan8000

The Complete Macintosh Software Control Package for the AOR AR8000 Scanner

MacScan8000 is a professional software control package for the AOR AR8000 scanner. With MacScan8000 you have full, interactive control over this powerful hand-held scanner.

Unlimited capability

MacScan8000 gives you unlimited search and scan banks. You may save banks to disk and load banks from disk for unlimited flexibility. MacScan8000 also imports most existing structured frequency lists found on Compuserve, AOL, and the internet.

All scan and search operations take place in their own function-integrated window, so there's no switching among many cluttered windows to perform standard functions.

Data management

MacScan8000 offers flexible data management--a necessity with a 1,000 channel scanner. You can easily rearrange the order of channels and banks at any time, so your scanner is tailored to your specific needs. You can also print all your channel and bank data for a permanent record.

MacScan8000 also extends the capabilities of the standard AR8000 by offering unlimited Select Scan banks and allowing auto-search-and-store to any scan bank you choose.

Three modes of operation

Local mode
Lets you enter, edit, import, or manipulate channel and bank data independently from your AR8000.

Interactive mode
Allows you to control searching and scanning on the AR8000, including simple, immediate bank linking, while working with the AR8000 data.

Runtime mode
Shows you a real-time display of activity with your AR8000, provides hit counting, and real-time attenuation and lockout of frequencies.
