With Scan Sets you can quickly select large groups of Scanlists
to enable or disable, just by enabling or disabling the Scan Sets
that contain the desired groups of Scan Lists, instead of
individually editing the list of enabled Scanlists every time you
want to change the group of Scanlists you wish to monitor.
As you import or program objects to be scanned, you map them
to Scanlists to group them in any manner that you choose. Then,
you enable Scanlists for scanning using the Scanlists item in the
Main Menu. Simply place a check next to each Scanlist that you
wish to scan, and the PSR-800 will scan all objects that are
mapped to enabled Scanlists.
The first time you select the Scan Sets item from the Main Menu,
you will notice that there are a total of twenty Scan Sets
available. Each Scan Set contains a list of all 200 normal
Scanlists plus the special Skywarn Scanlist, and any of these
Scanlists can be checked to include them as members of the
Scan Set. And, by default, Scan Set 01 has all of 201 Scanlists in
the radio checked as members of Scan Set 01.
Here
ʼ
s how Scan Sets work. For the members of a Scanlist to be
included in the objects that the radio scans when the
▶
/II/SEL
key is pressed, the Scanlist must be enabled in the Main Menu
ʼ
s
Scanlists setting, and, the Scanlist must be included in the
enabled members of at least one enabled Scan Set. That
ʼ
s why
by default Scan Set 01 is enabled, and every single Scanlist is
set to be a member of Scan Set 01 - we assume that to start out,
you
ʼ
ll enable and disable Scanlists primarily by using the Main
Menu
ʼ
s Scanlists function. Enabling all of the Scanlists in Scan
Set 01 allows you to control the selection of enabled Scanlists by
simply changing the Scanlists that are enabled or disabled in the
Main Menu
ʼ
s Scanlist function, since all of the radio
ʼ
s Scanlists
are members of Scan Set 01, which is also enabled by default.
In summary, objects, Scanlists and Scan Sets follow this simple
rule:
IF an object is mapped to an enabled Scan List, AND, that
Scanlist is enabled, AND, that Scanlist is a member of an
enabled Scan Set, THEN, that object will be scanned when the
▶
/II/SEL
key is pressed.
Let
ʼ
s assume that, over time, as you
ʼ
ve used the scanner more
and more, you
ʼ
ve developed a good system of grouping
individual objects together for scanning using Scanlists, and, that
you are beginning to find that you are frequently enabling and
