The '''Manifest Scanner''', formerly known as the '''Cargo Scanner''', is a utility module that can scan other [[ships]] and identify any and all [[Commodities]] they are carrying. It must be assigned to a fire group and manually activated. If any cargo in the scanned ship is [[Stolen Goods|stolen]], the ship's owner will incur a bounty. Using the scanner is considered hostile behavior, and the target is immediately alerted when the scan is initiated.
A '''Cargo Scanner '''(also known as a Manifest Scanner) is mounted on the utility mount of your ship and needs to be assigned to a fire group before you can use it, just like a weapon. It is used to scan another vessel for any cargo it may be carrying. If any of the cargo in a ship that's been scanned is [[Stolen Goods|stolen]] the owner of that ship will incur a bounty. This applies to players and NPCs alike.

Be warned - using this scanner is usually considered to be hostile behaviour! The target is always alerted when you initiate a cargo scan on their ship.


'''Note''' - NPC security forces outside [[station]]s may often randomly scan you for cargo to see if you're carrying any [[Stolen Goods|stolen goods]] and/or [[Illegal Goods|illegal goods]]. When you are [[Interdiction|interdicted]] by NPC security forces they usually want to scan your cargo for the same reasons.
