E 1. [. . . ] When you designate a bank as a trunking bank, your scanner sets up 10 Scan Lists, which are simply lists used to store your favorite Talk Group IDs. Each list can contain up to 10 IDs, so you can store a total of 100 IDs for each trunk tracking bank. (1000 if you use all the banks as trunking banks!) Scan Lists help you organize the trunking system users into categories. For example, you might use List#1 for police IDs, List#2 for fire department IDs, List#3 for emergency medical service IDs, etc. Once IDs are stored in lists, you can scan them like you scan conventional frequencies and you can lockout any one (up to 9) of the 10 scan lists by pressing the corresponding numeric key. When an ID is active, the scan list number will appear on the display. You can program your Scan Lists either manually or during Trunking Search mode. Check the web site www. bearcat1. com/free. htm for a complete list of talkgroups for your area that you can program into your Scan Lists. In order to program Talk Group ID's, you must first complete Step 1 ­ "Selecting or Changing Trunking System Type", page 49 and Step 2 ­ "Programming Trunked Frequencies", pages 50-51. Select the ID location by rotating the VFO or using the keypad and then press E. (The first number represents the Scan List number and the second number represents the Memory Location number. ) (Direct entry method example: enter "1-5" by M1-5 pressing 1, . ID DELAY works with each talkgroup to be delayed for 2 seconds when the communication ends. When receiving EDACS systems, remember that Uniden's AFS talkgroups give you powerful flexibility. In a few key presses, you can specify a single talkgroup, a fleet, or an entire agency in all the above modes. Read the section "EDACS Reception" to understand how this works. Hint: If the scanner is not in the Trunking mode, you can enter the Trunk Programming mode by pressing TRUNK. Pressing TRUNK in the Trunking mode will move to the Scan Hold mode. 54 ID Scan Mode 1. Press SCAN to begin scanning the lists you have programmed. ID SCAN 867. 9875 NFM If you haven't programmed more than List 1234567890 2 IDs, ERROR appears on the display. 2. To remove a Scan List from active scanning, press the number of the Scan List on your keypad. Hint: Press and hold RSM for 2 seconds, the scanner will move to the next trunking bank. The Scan List indicator turns Off, and the IDs in that list are not scanned. If you try and deactivate all the Scan Lists, Scan List 1 will automatically be active. When you press and hold TRUNK for 2 seconds, you can switch Trunk Tracking modes (Scan or Search). Note: · While ID scanning, to change all trunking banks to the Service Search mode, press SERVICE. [. . . ] The next two or three digits identify which Fleet is active, and the last digit(s) identifies the Subfleet. Block (1 digit) Subfleet (1 or 2 digits) Which Fleet within the Block (2 or 3 digits) The details concerning how the size codes are selected by a Type I system designer are highly dependent on the specific needs of the systems users. Some organizations may want many subfleets with only a few radios each, while another organization may want only a few subfleets with many radios each. Your task is to program your fleet map with the same size code assignments as the trunked system. If you do this accurately, you'll track all the Fleet-Subfleet combinations used by the system.
