Adjust P25 Level
◙
This setting determines some system-specific parameters for digital channels. In most cases, setting this to
Auto
provides the best
performance. However, you can also manually set the digital decode threshold. This setting affects all channels in the current system.
See “Optimizing P25 performance” on Page XX
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.
Editing Sites
MESL
Use this option to enter and edit site information for the current system. See “Programming Sites” for instructions for each site option.
Note that you must program at least one site for each trunked system in order for your scanner to scan the system.
Editing Channel Groups
MECL
Use this option to enter and edit channel groups and channel information. See “Programming Channel Groups” for instructions for
each channel group and channel option. Note that you must program at least one channel group and one channel for each
conventional system in your scanner. You do not have to enter channel group information for trunked systems, but doing so makes it
easier to follow specific talk groups.
Copying Systems
MECSL
Occasionally you might want to copy and rename a system to highlight one group over another.
One system might be called City - Fire and the same system City - PD with adjustments to data within.
This lets you quickly locate the desired set of data.
