08RE399 TDFM-136B Operating Instructions
The TDFM-136 has two distinct RF modules (Main and a dedicated Guard receiver). Unit ID's are
set to default ID's of 1 for Main and 2 for Guard. The Unit ID is a user set number, not a factory ID,
so if they are to be used, then they need to be set. The command to set the Unit ID is command
L5-9, the UID (Main or Guard) to be set is determined by front panel switch positions. The screen
to edit these numbers appears as follows:
Figure 2-14. The Set Unit ID edit screen .
The editor works as follows:
to
Decimal mode: enter number, cursor automatically advances.
accept the entry and exit
abandon the entry and exit
The edit mode is decimal only seven digits 0000001 to 9999999.
2.3 Scan and Multi-Mode Operation
The transceiver supports two modes of operation where it is able to receive signals on
more than the displayed main and guard memories. These modes are: scan and multi-
mode operation.
2.3.1 Scan Operation
The radio supports a basic scan mode that operates on the Main channel only. The scan function
allows users to monitor up to 16 channels at a time. All memories must be a member of one, and
only one, scan list; each scan list can hold up to 16 memories. Each memory in a scan list can be
enabled for scan or disabled (see command L2-5).
To scan a particular list: the current Main channel memory must belong to that list, and must have
it's scan enabled. Under these conditions, when you press the scan button (5), the unit will scan.
Example: There are seven (7) memories assigned to scan list three, these are: 5, 6, 13, 15,
23, 34, and 51. Memories 6 and 15 have scan disabled, the rest have scan enabled.
If the user is on channel 6 or 15 and tries to start scan (command L1-5), there will be
an error message: “Error: Non-Scanned Chan” and nothing will happen.
If the user is on any other channel in scan list three, then the five scan-enabled
channels in list three will be scanned.
You can enable or disable scan for the displayed memory (for Main channel only) by using the
command L2-5.
You can affect the scan operational parameters by using command L3-5. This command allows
you to affect the following four (4) parameters:
• Revert Mode
• Reply Timer
• Monitor Timer
• Delay Timer
