User's Manual

You can hear these conversations
by using this Menu item to turn the I-CALL
function to ON. In Search mode, with
I-CALL ON, you will hear both talkgroup calls
and I-CALLs. You can also set I-CALLs to
I-CALL ONLY during which you will monitor
only I-CALLs in Search mode. You can also
program I-CALL IDs into Scan List memory.
OR
8:ID SCAN LIST (LTR)
When scanning an LTR system you can only
turn Scan Lists OFF and ON when an LTR
talk group that you have entered into memory
is active. To provide you with another method
to turn Scan Lists on and off, you can use this
Menu item which only appears when you
have selected LTR in Trunk Type.
9:EMERGENCY ALT (EDACS)
In EDACS trunked systems, you can set an
alert for an EDASC transmission received.
Set EMERGENCY ALERT to ON, and
EMERGENCY flashes on the display and you
will hear beep alerts when you receive an
EDASC emergency transmission.
9:STATUS BIT
OR
9:STATUS BIT (MOTOROLA)
On Type 2 trunking systems there is a
method by which specialized types of
communications utilize unique talkgroup
numbers. An emergency call will occur on
a unique talkgroup from its primary
assignment, for example. Because the
BC250D defaults to Status-Bit On mode, you
never need to worry about missing these
transmissions. If you've programmed
talkgroup 33264 into Scan List memory, for
example, and there is an emergency call
within the group, you will hear it on 33264.
0:EDACS ID FORM (EDACS)
You can change to display the talkgroups in
decimal mode, but this mode does not
provide you with the flexibility that you get
with AFS. The BC250D defaults to show the
talkgroup number in AFS mode (Agency-
Fleet-Subfleet). For details on AFS see pages
