.

Note:

AttenMode

 must be set to 

Normal

 for this setting to apply.

You can also toggle this setting by pressing 

ATT

 while monitoring any talkgroup in the system.

Narrow FM:

 Use 

Yes

 when the system is known to use Narrow FM modulation. Most 900 MHz analog trunked radio systems utilize NFM modulation.

Default is 

No

.

Press 

◄

 or

 to select 

Yes

 or 

No

AudioBoost:

 When set to '

On

', sets a 6 dB boost for all activity on the system. Default is 

Off

.

Press 

◄

 or 

►

 to select 

On

 or 

Off

.

Dwell:

 Sets the amount of time the scanner dwells on a Motorola, P25, or EDACS system control channel for activity on programmed talkgroups. Use

(default) 

0

 for automatic mode, which uses control channel information to determine when all current talkgroup information has been broadcast by the

system.

Enter the amount of time, 

0-200

 (0 - 20 seconds), for the delay. Default is 

0

DIG AGC:

 When set to '

On

', instantly compensates for low user audio levels that are common on digital systems. '

G

' (

On

) or '

g

' (

Off

) will appear in the

right

 of the display when a channel is active to indicate AGC status. Default is 

On

.

 Note:

 If you program a channel as NFM that is transmitting in FM mode,

the audio will sound too loud. Similarly, if you program a channel as FM that is transmitting in NFM mode, the audio will sound too quiet. Incorrectly
matching the modulation setting to the actual modulation used is the biggest reason for unbalanced audio between channels.

AutoMove HRs (LTR only):

 When set to '

On

', allows you to enter the LTR system frequencies in any order and the scanner will automatically move the

frequencies to the proper home repeater slots as transmissions are received on the system. Default is 

Off

.

Press 

◄

 or

Invert Data (EDACS Narrow only):

 For some EDACS Narrow systems, the control channel data may need to be inverted if you can't receive (hear) the

control channel. Default is 

No

.

Press 

◄

►

 to select 

Yes

 to invert or 

No

.

Multi-Site

(Motorola/P25 only):

 Used with Motorola Networked and P25 trunked radio systems. The multi-site feature mainly concerns how the scanner

"looks" at the control channels you have programmed into a particular system object. Default is 

Off

- the scanner will find the first usable control channel in the control channel list and use it to track the system.

Roam 

- while (you are) moving, the scanner will attempt to lock on the best site it can find. The scanner will always attempt to lock on to control

channels where the decoding quality is greater than 'Threshold Hi', and will search for new control channels when the decoding quality of a control
channel drops below 'Threshold Lo' (see next entries below). If no control channels are available that meet the Threshold Hi criteria, the scanner will
seek the best control channel to use, and continue checking periodically for a new control channel that meets the Threshold Hi criteria.

Stat 

- intended to allow you to scan through 

all

 decent quality control channels while stationary (say, at home or work) so that you can hear all of the

available traffic on all of the available receivable decent quality control channels depending on the 

Check All CC

 setting below. [

Threshold Hi

(Motorola/P25 only):

 When 

Multi-Site

 is set to 

Roam

, sets the control channel decode % threshold for a site to be considered good when

looking for a new site.

Enter the percentage (

1-99

) and press 

SEL

/

ENT

. Default setting is 

95

(%).

Threshold Lo

(Motorola/P25 only):

 When 

Multi-Site

 is set to 

Roam

, sets the control channel decode % threshold for a site to be considered out of range,

which will begin the process of looking for a new site.

Enter the percentage (

1-99

) and press 

SEL

/

ENT

. Default setting is 

75

(%).

Check All CC

(Motorola/P25 only):

When 

Multi-Site

 is set to 

Stat

 (stationary) This setting determines how the scanner scans the control channels.

Default is 

Off

.

- the scanner will check a new control channel on each pass, starting with the next frequency in line after the previous pass. It will check only one

control channel per pass. [

The scanner will park on a different 

decent

 quality control channel each time it scans that system. [

]

On 

- the scanner will park on each 

decent

 control channel in the list successively looking for programmed talk groups BEFORE leaving that system

and moving on to other system's or conventional channels. [

T Tables

(Motorola/P25 only):

 Allows you to select the default trunking table or to customize the tables for each type of system. Trunking tables are

required so the scanner can correctly determine the voice channel frequencies. Trunking table information can usually be found in the 

Radio Reference

Database

 for implicit and VHF/UHF systems. The 

Win500 

and 

PSREdit500 

software will also allow you to select the tables needed for each type of

system. 

For Splinter Systems

 (analog 800Mhz  systems with frequencies between 866-869 MHz [or rebanded 851-854 MHz] ending with 0 instead of 5 e.g.

852.1250, not 852.1375) select 

Splintr

.

For Motorola/P25 Systems 

there are two types of systems: Explicit mode and Implicit mode channel assignment. Explicit mode systems include all

information needed to determine voice frequencies on the control channel. For 

Explicit

 mode systems, leave this setting at 

Default

. The system will

automatically detect the band plan and populate the table for the system. You must supply the system's band plan for 

Implicit

 systems for the scanner to

correctly determine voice frequencies.

For Rebanded Motorola Systems 

you must select 

Custom

 and create a custom band plan. For Motorola 800 MHz rebanded table entries see 

this post

.

For VHF and UHF Systems

Custom

 will be the only option. You must program the applicable lo channel, hi channel, offset, base frequency, and step for

the system. I have found an explanation at the 

Trunked Radio Systems User’s Page

  that describes how to find some of this information. Look for

'Determining Base and Offset Frequencies for the BC245xlt'

explanation. Inquire at
