the TSYS object over and over again without having to re-enter
all of the system data.
Assuming that you have already entered one or more CONV
objects (which we recommend you do prior to attempting the
entry of the slightly more complicated TGRP object), you should
press the
PGM
key to place your scanner into Program Mode,
then press the
NEW
softkey, then press the
TGRP
softkey. Your
radio display should appear as follows:
> Talkgroup <
Scan Lists:
*01
TSYS:
NEW
Save
Exit
Dflt
In the same way as with the CONV object, this menu of TGRP
parameters can be scrolled up and down to access and enter or
change the various parameters associated with a trunking
talkgroup.
For the purpose of this example, we will assume that you wish to
create a TGRP object for a Motorola Type II 800 MHz trunked
radio system, which is one of the more common types of trunked
radio systems in use. (If this is not the case, we encourage you
to refer to the Detailed Menu Reference section of this manual
for more information that applies to the type of TSYS you wish to
monitor.)
Scroll the display by pressing the down arrow once so that the
flashing cursor is highlighting the TSYS field, then press the
SEL
key in the center of the 5-way pushbutton pad. Your radios
display should appear as follows:
>Trunked System<
Type:MOT 800/900
Tag:System
Save Exit Dflt
We are entering a new Motorola Type II 800 MHz system, so we
can leave the
Type:
field as-is. Its a good idea (in fact, a
REALLY good idea, for reasons you will see as you proceed) to
give your TSYS a unique name. Press the down arrow key once
