5. Software hints for operation

Windows

For controlling the scanner from a Windows-PC, software for SSH and SCP is required. A Linux PC usually comes with such software. Corresponding software may have to be installed for Windows:

For PuTTY and WinSCP, it is recommended to use these within the software package PortableApps https://portableapps.com/. Various other software is also available within PortableApps, e.g. TeamViewer. PortableApps also checks regularly for updates.

When installing PortableApps, paths like C:\Programs or Programs (x86) are not recommended, cause normal users cannot write in these paths. In order to be able to use files directly from Explorer by double-clicking or Open with, 7zip, Notepad++ and LibreOffice should be installed directly - without PortableApps.

Android

  • JuiceSSH is recommended for SSH
  • Total Commander is recommended for editing and renaming files
  • VNC Viewer is recommended for remote display (on the smartphone)
