The '''directional scanner''' is a device built into all ships (even shuttles and capsules) which can detect most objects in space at long range. It can be configured for a specified range up to about 14.355 AU (2,147,483,647 or 2.15x10<sup>9</sup> km) and a specified angle, allowing a skilled pilot to remotely check for objects (usually ships, or signs of ships) at celestial locations, such as asteroid belts, [[Cosmic Anomaly|cosmic anomalies]], moons/[[POS|player starbases]], and station undocks. This article describes the practical methods for configuring the d-scan to make it useful. | The '''directional scanner''' is a device built into all ships (even shuttles and capsules) which can detect most objects in space at long range.
