Kill warrant Scanner interrupts

When I am scanning a target with a Class C KWS the scan starts over and over again and it takes aged to complete, even though the target is in range and around (while not exactly in) the center. Any hints how to do it better?
 
If the scan is interrupted, don't release your trigger - the scan will resume once you're in range / have the ship in your sights again.
 
Dont release the trigger when they leave your scan zone. That way the scan bar drops slowly rather than resetting to zero.
 
I think there is a bug. i would have ticketed it but ....... I forgot!.

sometimes the "scanning bar" gets to full but does not go to complete. it just sticks on scanning.
Now, I *think* if you take your finger off at this point so long as you do not touch the scanning button again, you *may* (I need to check more) get the bounty, as the bar stays full with the word scanning on it however IF you touch the button again, it resets and starts the scan again.

It took me up to 4 times to get the scan to fully "complete" when playing yesterday and friday.

I will try and get it to happen again if I get on tonight and make sure i know whether it pays out when the scanning bar sticks on "scanning" at 100% to make the ticket more useful.

edit, what the heck. ticket submitted Ticket #00000039509

PS has anyone else noticed that if you click the email link for the ticket it is an invalid link?

edit will also post this in the bug link

It seems I had experienced a hardware problem. The joystick button seems to "log off" now and then, resetting the scan, so I did bind a key to the second fire button as well for such purposes. Since then, it works much more smoothly, as you suggested.
Some solutions are just too easy ...

@Mad Mike I did experience the same issue once. Thanks for the hint, I in fact received the bounty even though the scan did not say "Completed" (but the bar was at 100%).
