Under weapon proficiency it states that inquisitors receive repeating crossbow proficiency, does this cover the 'heavy' version of that weapon, or only the base repeating crossbow?
Something less class specific but related...
In order to use a wand or scroll, must you have the spell on your list of 'known' spells in order to use them without a use magic device check? Or does your class simply need to have access to the spell?
Thanks for the help

I'm not sure about the crossbow bit, but I would assume it's both.
to use a wand, you need the spell on your "available" list, so in the case of your inquisitor it needs to be an inquisitor spell
hope this helps

The Inquisitor proficiency section just says "repeating crossbow"
In Equipment - Projectile Weapons: "Blowguns, light crossbows, slings, heavy crossbows, shortbows, composite shortbows, longbows, composite longbows, halfling sling staves, hand crossbows, and repeating crossbows are projectile weapons."
It lists light and heavy crossbows individually, but repeating crossbows as one. Further down in weapon descriptions, there is only one entry for Crossbow, Repeating (whether heavy or light).
I would rule that the Inq has both.

Wands are Spell Trigger items. "Spell trigger items can be used by anyone whose class can cast the corresponding spell."
Scrolls are more difficult.
To have any chance of activating a scroll spell, the scroll user must meet the following requirements.
* The spell must be of the correct type (arcane or divine).
* The user must have the spell on her class list.
* The user must have the requisite ability score.
Once those are met, if your Caster level is high enough, you can activate the scroll, otherwise you make a caster level check and risk a mishap.

Thank you both for the clarification. For the last poster, I believe that repeating crossbows are listed under 'exotic' weapons not simple.
