Trunk Tracker IV™ Operation
– Follows unencrypted conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro 25 (APCO 25), EDACS,
EDACS SCAT, and LTR trunked radio systems, including systems in VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands. The
scanner can scan both conventional and trunked systems at the same time.
Multi-Site Trunking
– Lets you share system channels across multiple sites to more efficiently use the scanner’s memory and more
easily select sites to monitor.
Control Channel Only Scanning
– If the scanner is set to scan a Motorola system, you can set it so it scans using only control
channel data. You do not have to program voice channel frequencies into memory in this mode as long as all possible control
channels are programmed.
Adaptive Digital Threshold
– Automatically sets the digital decode threshold for APCO 25 systems.
GPS
Location Based Scanning
– If you connect a GPS unit to the scanner it can automatically enable and disable systems based on the
Location Information (longitude, latitude, Range) that you provide.
GPS Non-Radio Based Features
– The scanner alerts you to Dangerous Intersections, Speed Alerts, and Points of Interest that
you program into the scanner.
GPS Display Mode
– Lets you display extended GPS information such as Distance to a POI, Direction to a POI, Time to a POI,
Speed, Position, and more.
Weather
Weather Search –
Lets your scanner receive your local NOAA weather transmission.
SAME Weather Alert
– Lets your scanner sound an alert when a SAME weather alert signal is transmitted on a NOAA weather
channel. The scanner also displays the transmitted alert type. This helps you quickly find out about severe weather in your area and
lets you avoid false alarms.
WX Priority –
Lets your scanner alert you when a weather alert is transmitted on a NOAA weather channel.
Search
Service Search
– Lets you quickly select and search the scanner’s preprogrammed frequencies.
Custom Search
– Lets you program up to 10 custom search ranges. You can search any of these ranges simultaneously.
CTCSS/DCS Search
– Lets the scanner search for CTCSS or DCS tones or codes on any channel or during a search. The scanner
can identify up to 50 CTCSS tones and 104 DCS codes.
Quick Search
– Lets you search from the currently-tuned frequency if you are searching a conventional system.
Auto Store
Frequency AutoStore
– Automatically stores all active frequencies into the selected conventional system.
Talk Group ID AutoStore
– Automatically stores all new talk group ID’s into a channel group you select.
Priority
Priority Scan
– Priority channels let you keep track of activity on your most important conventional channel(s) while monitoring
transmissions on other channels.
Priority Plus
– You can set the scanner so it scans only the priority channels.
PC Control and Cloning
PC Control
– You can transfer programming data to and from your scanner and your personal computer, and control the scanner
using a computer. This helps you find frequencies listed on the Internet and load them into the scanner. Free PC control and
programming software will be available at
http://www.uniden.com
.
Clone Mode
– You can clone all programmed data, including the contents of the scanner’s memory, menu settings, and other
parameters from one BCD996T scanner to another BCD996T scanner.
