Traffic Safety
CONNECTING AN EXTENSION SPEAKER
In a noisy area, an amplified extension speaker (not supplied), might provide
more comfortable listening. Plug the speaker cable’s 1/8 inch (3.5 mm) mini-
plug into your scanner’s jack.
Note:
You must use an amplified speaker with this scanner. Non-amplified speak-
ers do not provide sufficient volume for comfortable listening.
USING THE BELT CLIP
You can use the belt clip attached to the back of the scanner for hands-free
carrying when you are on the go. Slide the belt clip over your belt or waistband.
To remove the belt clip, pull the tab out and slide the clip upward.
Transferring Data to or from Another Scanner or PC
You can transfer the programmed data to and from another PSR-300 (or PSR-
400) scanner using an optional connecting cable which has 1/8-inch stereo
(TRS) phone plugs on both ends. Connect the cable between each scanner’s
PC/IF jacks. See “Cloning the Programmed Data”. You can also upload or down-
load the programmed data to or from a PC using a USB Scanner/PC Interface
Cable and application software.
Do not wear an earphone or headphones with your scanner when operating
a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle in or near traffic. Doing so can create a
traffic hazard and could be illegal in some areas.
If you use an earphone or headphones with your scanner while riding a bi-
cycle, be very careful. Do not listen to a continuous transmission. Even though
some earphones and headphones let you hear some outside sounds when
you listen at normal levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
