Operation Overview
Note:
Before operating the
AE180H
for the first time,
make sure you have fully charged the
Battery Pack.
1.
Before turning on the scanner, rotate the Squelch
Control fully clockwise.
2.
Turn the scanner on by rotating the On-Off/Volume
Control clockwise until you hear a click. Turn the
Volume Control a small amount clockwise to a low
listening level.
3.
You should hear either a “rushing” noise or some
communications. If you are monitoring a transmission,
wait until it stops before adjusting the Squelch Control.
4.
Readjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
5.
Turn the Squelch Control counterclockwise
just until the
rushing noise disappears. At the squelch threshold, any
incoming signal just slightly stronger than the noise will
open the squelch. Any communication that is received
will open the Squelch, and stop scanning or Searching.
Note:
If squelch is set too tight, that is, too far
counterclockwise
from the threshold point, a much
stronger signal is required to open the squelch. If
squelch is set on a point
clockwise
from the threshold,
you will hear a constant sound (noise, if no signal is
present.) The scanner will not scan.
The
AE180H
has 100 memory channels, each of which can
be programmed to store one frequency. The channels are
divided into ten 10-channel banks, useful for storing similar
frequencies in order to maintain faster scanning cycles.
You can monitor communication in one of two ways:
n
BANK
SCAN If you have programmed channels, you
can scan all programmed channels in the selected
bank(s), except locked out channels. When the scanner
stops on an active frequency, it remains on that channel
as long as the transmission continues. When the
transmission stops, the
AE180H
resumes scanning. If
the Delay Function is on, the scanner remains on the
same channel for 2 more seconds, waiting for a
responding transmission. If there is no responding
transmission within 2 seconds, the scanning
cycle resumes.
