Beyond the Basics

For APCO-25 trunking systems using the 9600 bps
control channel, program the system using the steps
outlined above for Motorola systems. Your scanner will
automatically detect the proper control channel type.

Some systems rotate the control channel on a daily basis.
For best results, program all known control channel
frequencies into the trunking channel storage bank.

To program Motorola UHF trunking systems, see
“Programming Motorola VHF and UHF Trunking
Systems”.

To program Motorola 800 MHz “splinter” systems, see
“Programming Motorola 800 MHz Splinter Systems”.

To program Motorola Type I/IIi fl eet maps, see “Fleet
Maps”.

EDACS systems

You must program all EDACS system channels into your
scanner in Logical Channel Number (LCN) order, beginning
with LCN 1 in channel 01 of the channel storage bank. Do not
program EDACS system channels in channel 00 of a channel
storage bank. Refer to frequency publications or Internet
sites to obtain correct LCN frequencies for the EDACS
systems you wish to monitor. If the EDACS system you are
programming skips channels in the LCN order, leave those
channels blank in your scanner.

1. Press

PROG and FUNC, and then

e or d

to select the desired

channel storage bank to program.

2. Press

TRUNK to access the ID list and set the correct

trunking bank type. If the bank has never been
programmed with a trunking system, Not trunked! Press mode
appears.

3. Press

MODE until EDACS appears. This sets the channel

storage bank for EDACS operation.
