PROGRAMMING SYSTEMS
You have to create systems first, create sites in the trunking systems (where the trunking
frequencies go), create groups in the systems, create channels in the groups, then program the
frequencies or IDs into the channels. Or, you can Quick store freqs or Quick store IDs (only after
you program the trunking system and site). Trunking IDs only go into trunking system groups
and conventional frequencies only go into conventional system groups. You can only store one
trunking system per ‘system’. You can store up to 500 systems, up to 20 groups per system, and
up to 1000 frequencies or 500 IDs per group. Total channels are limited to about 25,000. Also,
remember that conventional frequencies and IDs are considered channels. Note: Once a system
has been created, the system type cannot be changed.
One suggestion; assign a quick key to every (conventional) system/(trunked) site/group (and
search you want to include with scan). You can assign as many systems/sites you want to a quick
key and as many groups you want to a group quick key. That way you can just turn systems/sites/
groups on and off and not have to worry about locking them out. If you do not assign systems/
sites/groups to a quick key, you have to lock it out if you do not want to scan it.
PRIVATE SYSTEMS
You can flag a system only in the software so that it cannot be read out of the scanner, modified,
or deleted. There are no settings in the scanner to do this. You can still use the system as you
would normally (system/channel lockouts/unlock, volume offset, attenuate, etc), you just can’t
access it in the menu. Also, you cannot upload the system back to the scanner and have to delete
it with the software.
