11 The Basics the basics A frequency is the tuning location of a station. A channel is a programmable memory location for storing frequencies that you can scan for activity . Channels are grouped into 10 channel- storage banks , each of which contains 100-channels.
12 The Basics your scanner ’s controls SCAN/MANUAL Starts and stops channel scans, or lets you directly enter a frequency or channel number . SRCH Searches for frequencies, or active talk group IDs. SVC Starts a service bank search. TRUNK Accesses trunk tracking and stores trunked frequencies.
13 The Basics Number k eys Enter a channel, a frequency , or an ID number . HAM Selects the ham band when in service mode. MRN Selects the marine band when in service mode. AIR Selects the air band when in service mode. POL Selects the police band when in service mode.
14 The Basics D ATA Appears when the data skip function is active, and in the trunking mode when the dis connect tone detect function is off . Appears when Signal Stalker I is active. SCAN Appears during channel scan. LIST Appears with numbers (1–5) during trunking.
15 The Basics or Indicates the search direction during a chain, direct, or service search, and normal and weather scan. ALERT Appears when the weather alert is turned on, or fl ashes when the scanner detects an alert coded signal. M, E or L Indicates the trunking system: Motorola (M), EDA CS (E), or L TR (L).
16 Beyond the Basics beyond the basics channel-storage banks The scanner displays the channel-storage bank number while scanning a channel. Y ou can turn off a bank by pressing the bank ’s number , but one bank must always be active.
17 Beyond the Basics chain search Chain search lets you search through preset frequency ranges and store found frequencies. Y ou can also modify each range. At least one bank must be active. If you disable all the banks, the error tone beeps. 1 . Press SRCH .
18 Beyond the Basics 3 . Enter the lower limit frequency , and then press E/PGM . 4 . Press or to change to the upper limit frequency . 5 . Enter the upper limit frequency , and then press E/PGM . 6 . When you fi nish programming frequency ranges, press SRCH .
19 Beyond the Basics When the scanner receives a SAME- coded signal, ALERT fl ashes one of the following codes to indicate the alert level: L1... ................................................................................................. W arning L2.
20 Beyond the Basics Sk ywarn Skywarn jumps directly to the last channel in memory from any mode. The scanner pauses any active scans and starts receiving transmissions in the last channel. If no frequency is programmed in the last channel, No Prog appears and the scanner sounds an error tone.
21 Beyond the Basics Signal Stalk er I Signal Stalker I searches for frequencies in a speci fi ed range. This works well for locating strong local transmissions, such as mobile and handheld two way r.
22 Beyond the Basics S -S.ALt ................................................................................... Alert settings S -S.Lit ............................................................................. Back light settings S -S.PS .......

24 T runking Operations trunking operations The scanner can track transmissions for up to 10 Motorola T ype I, T ype II, hybrid, EDA CS or L TR analog trunking systems. When the scanner fi nishes checking activity in the trunked system, it scans other conventional frequencies in the bank.
25 T runking Operations • For ED A CS and L TR systems, you must enter the frequencies in logical channel number (LCN) order . • If you try to enter a duplicate frequency in a bank, the scanner beeps and the channel which was previously stored appears.
26 T runking Operations 5 . Enter the talk group IDs for each trunk system. L TR talk groups are identi fi ed as six - digit numbers in the form AHHUUU : A ................................................................................ Area code (0 to 1) H .
27 T runking Operations 2 . When the selected trunked system is displayed, press E/PGM . 3 . Use or to choose Id Lout, and press E/PGM . 4 . Press L/O , the ID is unlocked and the next locked ID displays. 5 . If you unlocked all locked IDs, the scanner displays Non.
28 T runking Operations AF S F ormat Y our scanner can translate decimal talk group lists to the much more powerful AFS format. Become familiar with AFS partial entry , and your scanning will become more fl exible and ef fi cient. The AFS format allows you to enter full or partial EDA CS IDs for powerful fl exibility in all modes.
29 T runking Operations Y ou can enter partial group numbers for EDACS talk groups. By entering only the desired portion of a group, you can select either 128, 8, or 1 talk group. F or example, you might program every talk group in a police department by pressing just four keys.
30 T runking Operations trunk search and scan Y ou can trunk scan and scan conventional frequencies at the same time. Y ou can program conventional frequencies in the same bank as trunking systems, but not while in trunk mode. T o scan both trunking and conventional banks, turn off trunking, select the banks to scan, then turn on trunking again.
