I believe it's under the "Misc." section of the Ships editor... there's a "Ship scannable" option or something like that.

you mean "is-cargo-known-delay"? - that goes for simple scans as well...

No, is cargo known delay works for everything. Using the options already mentioned you make the difference between scanning ships and discovering their cargo :D

"cap-subsys-cargo-know-delay"
just one down the list from
"is-cargo-known-delay"
