Maybe my errors will help someone else get Freescan to run on Mac OS. I saw a recent message from wscranston that he followed your steps and got Freescan to work, so that's encouraging.
I am trying to follow your command sequence in Terminal, but I am getting prompted for some extra steps. Hi bwreed - thanks for posting this info. I'm sure there is a way around this - just haven't worked on finding it yet.īottom line is FreeSCAN will run on the Mac without any emulator, or paying for a version of windows, etc.ĭetails for each of the steps above are found by GOOGLING the software and searching within the hits. As the path seems to change each time you connect the scanner to the Mac, this, for now, has to be done each time before starting freescan. However, to communicate with the scanner over the USB port I had to run "wine regedit" and create a string entry in HKEY_Local_Software_wine_ports for the KEY: COM1 and the VALUE. Once I did the about freescan ran fine on the Mac.
#PAID SCANNER SOFTWARE FOR MAC INSTALL#
Download freescan and install freescan using "wine" I have not used the MacPort-wine software.ĥ. MacPorts also has a port of "wine" that can be downloaded and installed. Options: I downloaded and installed "wine" from and am using it. Download and install from Apple XCode Command Line utilitiesĢ. I am able to upload and download programming to and from the scanner, as well as, download scanner data from RadioReference, edit that data and install the programming in the scanner. I am able to program my BCD996P2 using my Mac laptop directly, without a windows emulator.
