transmission will not be heard. EX 2:_If a channel has been set with a 10 second
pause and the channel becomes active for a transmission of 6 seconds, there
should be a 2 second default before the scanner resumes scanning (if there is
has been no further transmissions within the two seconds). If their is a
transmission during the two second delay period, then the timer should reset
and pause should be in effect for another ten seconds.
Important Programming Note: The default delay is two (2) seconds. Whenever
the user programs a channel the scanner will set a default delay of two seconds
(as we do not have a DELAY key this is important.) If the user wishes to change
the default he can go into the Menu.
7.3 CTCSS
This feature allows the user to assign a CTCSS code to a specific frequency.
Upon the user selecting CTCSS the smaller digits next to the frequency display
will light up and display the first CTCSS frequency. The user may use the VFO
knob or the UP and DOWN arrow keys to move the display to the desired tone
code frequency setting To assign it to a frequency the user may press either
the VFO knob or the SELECT key. Once assigned the scanner will return to
the mode of operation it was in prior to adding the CTCSS code. When a
CTCSS is assigned to a frequency, the C & 8 letters to the left of the tone code
should appear in the LCD. The following CTCSS frequencies are included:
67.0 71.9 74.4 77.0 79.7 82.5 88.5 91.5

7.4DCS
The DCS feature will allow the user to assign digital coded squelch tones to a
desired frequency. When a DOS is assigned to a frequency, the D, C & 8 letters
to the left of the tone code should appear in the LCD. This operation of this
feature will be exactly the same as CTCSS (Section 7.1.3) except for the
different tone codes below:

8.3 I-Call
The l-Call function will allow the user to receive I-call communications in trunked
systems as specified in the deliverables by Greg Knox/Synthecomm (for
Motorola) and by Terrence Brennan/G-Tracker (for Ericsson). The user will
make the selection of ON or OFF for this feature. The default setting will be ON.
If an l-CaII transmission is made the first line of the alpha display should read “I-
CALL."
8.4 Emergency Alert
The EMERGENCY ALERT function will allow the user to flag the proper control
channel bit (either Motorola or Ericsson) so that when a user within the trunked
radio system transmits an emergency signal the scanner will beep three times at
the start of the transmission and the word EMERGENCY will flash in the bottom
row of the alpha display alternately with any bank tag. The user will make the
selection of ON or OFF for this feature. The default setting for this feature is
ON.
8.5 Status Blt
The STATUS BIT function will allow the user to receive all patch and other non»
standard messages by default for Motorola systems (see the 80-245). For
EDACS systems, by changing the setting to OFF, digital transmissions will be
received by the scanner (see the digital bit information provided by Brennan.)
The user will make the selection of ON or OFF for this feature. The default
setting is ON.
8.6 Squelch Detect (Motorola Only)
This feature will allow the user to utilize squelch, rather than an EOT signal, to
return the scanner to the control channel from a working/voice channel (see the
30245 and later production versions of the 80235 and BC-895). The user will
make the selection of ON or OFF for this feature. The default setting for this
feature will be OFF.

uniden
America Corporation
This feature will allow the user to automatically mtrunk” a system by only
programming the control channel (see the Greg Knox/Synthecomm
Deliverables). The user will make the selection of ON or OFF for this feature.
The default setting for this feature will be OFF. The user will have programmed
only a control channel into the selected bank. Once this Control Channel only
mode selection is made, the scanner will look for the control channel within the
bank and begin trunk (search) functionality. If no Motorola 800 or 900 MHz
control channel is found, the scanner will report an ERROR message and a
bee-boop sound.
8.8 Talkgroup Settlngs
Allows the user to program IDs for a trunked system even if a control channel is
not present for the selected trunked system. User will select this, then the bank,
then will be taken to SCAN LIST 1, MEMORY POSITION 1 where talkgroup ID
numbers and alpha tags can be set or changed via the 12-keys and VFO. If
talkgroup IDs are already programmed for the selected bank, when the user
makes this selection he will be taken to the first available memory location (no
IDs programmed). If all IDs are programmed the scanner will move to Scan List
1, Memory position 1. After programming the talkgroup number, the user will be
able to make selected settings (alpha tags, delay, beep alert, record) through
the Menu below.
8.3.1 Alpha Tag
The ALPHA TAG feature will allow the user to assign each talkgroup an alpha
description. The same characters as outlined in Section 6.1.9 will be used in
alpha tagging each talkgroup. From Trunk Manual mode the user will press the
MENU key, select the this portion of the menu, select the ALPHA TAG and the
cursor will appear as described in Section 6.1.9 (except it will appear on the top
text line). Selection of the alpha characters will all follow the same steps as
outlined in Section 6.1.9. The ALPHA icon will appear in the display any time a
channel is alpha tagged. Note that the user can also program Alpha Tags in
Manual Mode by pressing the VFO key and selecting ALPHA and then using the
UP/DOWN arrow keys or the VFO tuner to make the characther selections.
8.8.2 Delay
The default delay of 2 seconds will be set each time an ID is programmed into
Scan List memory. However, this menu selection will allow the user to change
the default. See section 7.1.12 for delay setting options and explanations.
5.8.3 Beep Alert
September 7, 1999 UNIDEN PROPRIETARY Version 1.2

uniden
America Corporation
This function will be assigned by the user to any selected talkgroup ID memory.
When a transmission for this ID is received the scanner will beep twice rapidly at
the start of the transmission. The user options will be ON or OFF. The default
setting is OFF.
8.8.4 Record
This function will be assigned by the user to any selected talkgroup ID memory
and will send any received audio for the talkgroup memory to the Line out jack.
The user options will be ON or OFF. The default setting is OFF. Please refer to
section 7.1 .9 for further information.
Note: Frequencies that are programmed as trunked will not be able to be
assigned CTCSS or DCS tones, Delay, Beep Alert, Record, Mode (default to
FM), Step (use default for bank). These can only be set if the user changes the
Trunk type setting to off. The only setting that can be made for the frequencies
(in OFF mode) that will be maintained when a Trunking Type is restored, is
Attenuate.
8.9 Trunking Notes
9.9.1 Programming Multiple Trunked Systems In the Same Bank
The user should be able to load as many LTR systems into a bank as he likes.
The talkgroup list for the bank may not apply to multiple systems, but that is up
to the user’s discretion (the user may assign LISTS 13 to the first LTR system in
the bank and 4-8 to the second LTFt system, etc). The user may program any
combination of trunked systems (Motorola, EDACS, LTR) into the same bank,
however the scanner will only look for the type of trunking control (or sub-audible
data) channel that has been selected. it more than one Motorola system has
been programmed into a bank, the first control channel that is found in the bank
will serve as the selected system for the bank (this way a user driving between
two distant cities can program in two systems and as one control channel
becomes weak and unreadable, the scanner will find the second, stronger,
control channel and begin tracking with the appropriate frequencies). The user
will have to program talkgroups in separate Scan Lists and turn them on and off
as necessary.
8.9.2 EDACS Blockout
The user will be able to “block~0ut“ groups of EDACS talkgroups in the following
manner: Enter either an Agency (example 08.) or an Agency and a Fleet (08.04.)
into Scan List memory and press the lockout key. The entire Agency or Agency
and fleet and all its subfleets will be locked out in both SEARCH and SCAN
modes.
3.9.3 Motorola Control Channel Only In SEARCH mode

Ul'liflEI'I
America Corporation
If the user is searching an 800 and/or 900 MHz range of frequencies and has
turned on Motorola Control Channel only mode (see 8417) for the bank that
corresponds to the search range, then as soon as the search finds a Motorola
control channel (3600 baud), the scanner will begin trunking and continue to do
so until either: 2 seconds have elapsed with no transmissions within the trunk, or
the user presses the SEARCH key again.
8.9.4 Display Operation in Trunk Mode

Line one is highlighted in the above illustration. The SEARCH icon will be lit and
the current channel number will be flashing in the top left of the display. The user
can select line one to enter the limits of their search range by pressing select.
Once the user presses select, line 2 will display “ENTER LIMITS’K The user will
then use the 12-keys to enter the limits in the frequency portion of the display.
EXAMPLE: Press 44.000, press LIMIT key, press 49.000, press the LIMITkey.
Once the two limits have been set, the frequency display will flip»flop between
the high and low limits. Also, the second line of the alpha display will now
change to read “ENTER ALPHA TAG”. The VFO setting will change to alpha,
SEARCH RANGE 1 will be replaced with aflashing cursor on the first line at the
first alpha character The user can use the VFO to enter an alpha tag for this
range or the user can press the SEARCH key to begin the search of the range.
(if the user presses SELECT again, the menu will return to the above example
and the user can choose another search range to program or edit an range
already programmed.)
Note: At any time during a search the user may press MENU to pull up the

DATA, RECORD, AUTO STORE, CHAIN SEARCH, The user will not have to
select a range to edit if a search is in progress.
9.2 Delay
The Delay option for a selected search event or one that is in progress will have
the following user options:
0 SECONDS: No Delay
1 SECOND: The scanner will wait on a frequency for 1 second after a
transmission has stopped.
2 SECONDS: The scanner will wait on a frequency for 2 seconds after a
transmission has stopped.
4 SECONDS: The scanner will wait on a frequency for 4 seconds after a
transmission has stopped.
INFINITE: The scanner will wait on a frequency until the user presses any key
to make the scanner start scanning again.
-2 SECONDS: The scanner will wait on a frequency for only 2 seconds and
then continue scanning. (see note below)
-5 SECONDS: The scanner will wail on a frequency for only 5 seconds and then
continue scanning. (see note below)
-10 SECONDS: The scanner will wait on a frequency for only 10 seconds and
then continue scanning. (see note below)
The default for this feature is a 2 SECOND delay. The DELAY icon will appear
anytime a search is active that has a delay assigned other than if the user
selects NONE. The negative number delays act as a pause on a channel for
the specified time.
NOTE: The negative delays will stay on a frequency for the specified times and
then continue to search when the delay times out. EX: If a search range has
been set with a 10 second pause and the frequency becomes active for a
transmission of 6 seconds, there should be a 2 second default before the
scanner resumes searching (if there is has been no further transmissions within
the two seconds). If there is a transmission during the two second delay period,
then the timer should reset and pause should be in effect for another ten
seconds,
9.3Attenuate
The ATTENUATE feature will allow the user to attenuate the sensitivity for the
selected search range. The user will have the options of ON or OFF. The
default setting is OFF. The level of attenuation should, should be the same as
what is used on other current scanners. When activated the ATT icon will be
displayed in the LCD screen.
