Programming/Editing Optional Settings
Auto
- the scanner automatically adjusts the digital
decode threshold to match the transmission you are
hearing when it receives a strong signal and has a
high decode rate.
Manual
- lets you manually adjust the digital decode
threshold. To manually adjust the P25 level, select
Manual
.
Default
- sets the digital decode threshold to the
default value. Use this setting to return to the value
that usually provides adequate performance. This is
handy is you have manually adjusted the value to a
setting that prevents proper decoding.
Note: This setting has no effect on how these systems
are received.

EDCS ID Format
EDACS talk group ID's are commonly provided in one of
two formats: AFS and Decimal. This setting
determines how you enter EDACS ID's and how the
scanner displays them.
AFS Format
- the scanner uses AFS format for talk
group ID's
Decimal Format
- the scanner uses decimal format
for talkgroup ID's
Notes:
• The scanner defaults to AFS (agency, fleet,
subfleet) format - the format used in most EDACS
systems.
• See “EDACS Trunking” on Page 27 for more
information about the AFS format.
