When you set a channel storage bank to Open Mode, + appears under the bank’s
number while scanning. When you set a channel storage bank to Closed Mode, -
appears under the channel storage bank’s number while scanning.
Traffic on locked out talkgroup IDs is ignored when the scanner is operating in Open and
Closed Modes.
In Open Mode, the scanner will stop on all talkgroup traffic, except for traffic on
talkgroups that are entered in the ID list and locked out. In Closed Mode, the scanner will
only stop on talkgroup traffic if the ID is entered in the ID list and not locked out.
Open Mode scanning is useful in cases where you wish to monitor all traffic on the
trunked system, except for certain talkgroups which you specify by entering them into the
ID list and locking them out. Open Mode scanning allows you to search the trunking
system for new or previously unknown talkgroup activity while ignoring traffic on
undesired talkgroups.
Closed Mode scanning is useful in cases where you wish to restrict the traffic you
monitor to a certain set of talkgroups only these talkgroups are specified in the ID list and
not locked out.
