User's Manual

Weather Banks— frequencies are preset and allows the scanner to search 7 weather channels (NOAA,
weather)
Dimmer — lets you select the brightness of the display backlight.
Simultaneous Trunking Operation — allows the scanner to trunk three trunking systems, Motorola and
EDACS, at the same time, as well as conventional systems.
Hypersearch
— lets you set the scanner to search at up to 270 steps per second in frequency bands with 5
kHz steps, compared to the normal search speed of 90 steps per second.
Hyperscan
— the scanner automatically scans up to 90 channels per second to help you quickly find
interesting broadcasts.
Memory Lock — lets you lock the scanner to help prevent accidental changes of the channels and the talk
group IDs stored in the memory.
Data Signal Skip — lets you set the scanner to skip non-modulated or data signals (such as fax or modem
transmissions) during scan and searches. This lets the scanner avoid non-voice signals, making a search
faster.
Disconnect Tone Detect — the scanner automatically tunes to the trunking data channel when it receives a
disconnect transmission. You can turn this off, so you can continuously monitor a channel with a weak
transmission where conversations are often disconnected.
Manual Access — lets you directly access any channel.
Liquid-Crystal Display — makes it easy to view and change programming information.
Display Backlight — makes the scanner easy to read in low-light situations.
Key Backlight — makes the keys easy to read in low-light situations.
Flexible Antenna— provides adequate reception in strong signal areas and is designed
to help prevent antenna breakage. Or, you can connect an external antenna for better reception.
Memory Backup — keeps the frequencies stored in memory for an extended time if the scanner loses power.
Wired Programming— you can connect your scanner to a personal computer and program frequencies into it
using an optional interface cable and software.
Two Power Options — let you power the scanner using external AC power using the included AC adapter or
DC power using an optional DC cigarette-lighter power cable.
Beep Control— lets you turn off/on the key touch tone, error tone and confirmation tone.
