scanner. It assumes that you know the basic structure of radio systems and how they work. Just as a car owner’s manual does not teach you how to drive, this manual does not teach you about radio systems. There are many resources for learning about radio systems, including wiki articles, forum discussions, and YouTube videos. We encourage you to start at RadioReference.com’s discussion forums. IMPORTANT INFORMATION THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW IMPORTANT! This scanner has been manufactured so that it will not tune to radio frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone transmissions or to market this radio when altered to receive them. Installation, possession, or use of this scanner in a motor vehicle may be prohibited, regulated, or require a permit in some states, cities, and/or local jurisdictions. Local law enforcement officials can provide you with information regarding the laws in your community.

Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the earphone or headset. Otherwise, you might experience some discomfort or possible hearing damage if the volume suddenly becomes too loud because of the volume control or squelch control setting. This might be particularly true of the type of earphone that is placed in the ear canal. Liquid Exposure Warning Uniden does not represent this unit to be waterproof. It is water resistant to JIS level 4. To reduce the risk of damage to this product, minimize exposure of this unit to rain or moisture. This product is not warranteed against water damage SCANNING LEGALLY Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups, including police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies, amateur radio services, military operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers. It is legal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive. However, there are some transmissions that you should never intentionally listen to. These include: • Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other private means of telephone signal transmission). • Pager transmissions. • Any scrambled or encrypted transmissions According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are subject to fines and possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents of such a conversation unless you have the consent of a party to the conversation (unless such activity is otherwise illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent the reception of cellular telephone transmissions and the decoding of scrambled transmissions. This is done to comply with the legal requirement that scanners be manufactured so they are not easy to modify to pick up these transmissions. Do not open your scanners case to make any modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to monitor. Modifying or tampering with your scanners internal components or using it in a way other than as described in this manual could invalidate your warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it. In some areas, mobile and/or portable use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit. Check the laws in your area. It is also illegal in many areas (and a bad idea everywhere) to interfere with the duties of public safety officials by traveling to the scene of an incident without authorization.

INTRODUCTION The Uniden SDS100 is a digital TrunkTracker communications receiver that incorporates the HomePatrol database of all known radio systems in the USA and Canada. Programming it can be as simple as entering your zip code. Its True I/Q™ receiver provides for improved digital performance in challenging RF environments. Built to JIS4 f(IPX4) standards, it is rugged and weather resistant. Its customizable color display allows access to the information you want to see. HOW DOES THE HOMEPATROL® DATABASE WORK? When you set your location, the scanner selects channels near that location. If you enter your zip code, the scanner searches within a 10 mile radius of the center of that zip code. If you use the Auto Locate feature, that range increases to 30 miles. If you manually enter your location or connect an optional GPS receiver, your scanner will select channels that apply to your precise location. You can adjust the selection range from 0 to 50 miles. The database is updated weekly from RadioReference, the most comprehensive repository of radio system available. Updating the radio database in your SDS100 is as simple as connecting it to your PC and running the included Sentinel software. WHAT YOU HEAR Your scanner has over 10,000 police, fire, ambulance, business, utility, and other agencies set for instant access. You can also listen to weather channels and weather alerts, and you can set your scanner to monitor weather alerts. There are some communications that the public is locked out from monitoring. Your scanner cannot receive agencies that encrypt their communications; it also cannot receive agencies on some private proprietary systems. Because there are so many different kinds of communications going on, you can turn on specific types of agencies you want to hear (and turn off those you don’t). CREATE FAVORITES LISTS You are not limited to using the included database. You can also create your own Favorites Lists which you can customize to your preferences. AVOID TRANSMISSIONS You can also select transmissions for your scanner to Avoid (ignore). REPLAY TRANSMISSIONS Your scanner’s Replay feature will instantly replay the transmissions you’ve just heard. You can set how long a period Replay records for instant playback. This period can range from 30 seconds to 4 minutes. RECORD TRANSMISSIONS With your scanner, you can record transmissions. When you begin recording, your scanner adds the Replay recording buffer to the recording. These recording sessions are saved and can be replayed on demand. Rename and delete sessions through the Review Recordings submenu. MAIN FEATURES HomePatrol Database – Includes all known radio systems in the US and Canada. The database is updatable with the Sentinel software and Uniden updates the main database weekly.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR SCANNER Accessories included in the box are: • AC Adapter • USB Cable • Hand Strap • MicroSD Card (installed) • Lithium Ion Battery Pack • SMA-BNC Antenna Adapter • SMA type Antenna • Belt Clip • Printed Material BASIC USAGE INFORMATION USING INTERNAL BATTERIES The SDS100 is powered by a Lithium Ion battery. When the scanner is turned on, the scanner does not charge the batteries. When the scanner is turned off, the scanner will charge the batteries. You can use external USB power to power the scanner while it is on. However, the USB power source must be rated at 1A or greater to prevent battery drain during operation. The included AC adapter is rated at 2A and can power or charge the SDS100. The scanner’s charge indicator is red during charge and green when complete. Note: If the scanner gets too hot while charging, charging automatically stops. VIEW THE BATTERY LEVEL You can set a custom display area to show the battery voltage level. See “Customizing the Display.” UNDERSTANDING THE MEMORY All information contained in the scanner is stored on a microSD card supplied with the scanner. This includes Favorites Lists, all the radio settings, and the RadioReference database. FAVORITES LISTS Because the memory is based on the RadioReference database, the SDS100 has a different organization unlike banks and channels in older scanners, but more like Dynamic Memory Architecture (DMA) used for the last few generations of scanners. Favorites Lists follow the RR database structure of Systems that contain Departments that hold Channels (conventional frequencies or IDs) and then Sites to hold trunking frequencies. If you are familiar with DMA scanners, think of departments as being like channel groups. Favorites Lists let you store channels you find when you are scanning from the full database (the easiest way). They can contain channels from trunking systems and conventional systems. You can also manually add systems, departments and channels into Favorites Lists from the database as well as program new systems, departments, sites, and channels with the Sentinel software. You can save up to 256 different Favorite Lists in the scanner (and software) and associate them with any or all of your profiles. You can monitor one or more Favorites Lists at a time and/or the database. You can also export your Favorites Lists to a file to share them. Deleting a profile does not delete the Favorites Lists associated with a profile. However, deleting a Favorites List does delete it from all profiles. SYSTEMS Systems hold Sites, Departments, and Channels. TRUNKING SITES Inside trunked systems are sites that hold the trunking frequencies for the trunking system as well as any band plan information needed. You need at least one site for each trunked system and some systems have more than one site. DEPARTMENTS Departments are created inside systems. Departments hold frequencies (channels) for conventional systems and Talk Group IDs (also called channels) for trunked systems. SENTINEL SOFTWARE MANAGE PROFILES Profiles are “snapshots” of your scanner’s set up. A profile contains all configuration settings as well as all Favorites Lists, Avoids, and System settings. Sentinel can save multiple profiles so you can restore different profiles as you need them. For example, if you regularly visit a specific location, you can create a profile for that location. You can save it to Sentinel to use whenever you visit. MANAGE FAVORITES LISTS You can create Favorites Lists in Sentinel then associate them with specific profiles. Sentinel lets you create new systems or edit systems already in a Favorites List. When a profile is written to your scanner, only specified Favorites Lists are written to the scanner. Note that all Favorites Lists are shared by all Profiles. If you delete a Favorites List, it is deleted from all profiles. If you want to use a particular Favorites List in some Profiles and not use it in Others, use the Download and/or Monitor settings in the Profile Editor to select your preference. MANAGE DATABASES Uniden updates the Database used in your scanner every week. You can decide how often you want to update the databases on your scanner. When you update them through Sentinel, it checks the website for the most current database and saves it in Sentinel. When you select Write to Scanner, the new database is updated in the scanner. Updating the main database does not update any Favorites List. Your customizations and selections are preserved. HOW TO INSTALL SENTINEL SOFTWARE 1. Go to the scanner’s product page at Uniden.com and click the link for support files. 2. Download the latest version of Sentinel. 3. Unzip the file you downloaded, then click on setup.exe and follow the on-screen instructions to install Sentinel. UPDATING FIRMWARE Your scanner updates its firmware through Sentinel. In that process, Sentinel connects to the internet and checks for the current firmware version to download. From time to time, Uniden will release firmware updates to improve existing functionality, add new features, or address issues found in its operation. Updating the firmware takes just a few minutes and is easily accomplished using the Sentinel Software you installed on your PC. Simply connect your scanner to your PC using the supplied USB cable and select Mass Storage. Then, in Sentinel select UPDATE/Update Firmware and follow the on-screen prompts. 10 For information about what is included in each update, see: • http://info.uniden.com/UnidenMan4/SDS100FirmwareUpdates UPDATING THE DATABASE 1. To update the scanner’s database, connect it to your PC using the supplied USB cable. Select Mass Storage. 2. Next, in Sentinel, select UPDATE/Update Master HPDB. This updates the database in Sentinel, but does not update the database in the scanner. 3. Finally, write the new database to your scanner by selecting Scanner/Write to Scanner. DATA NAMING Name any Favorites List, System, Site, Department, Channel, Location, Custom Search, Recording Session, Tone-Out, or SAME group using up to 64 characters. To Enter a Character, turn the scroll control until the character you want appears. To move the cursor to the right, press the right soft key (>). To move the cursor to the left, press the left soft key (<). To clear a character, press ./no. To clear all characters, press./no twice. Press E/yes when finished to exit. PRIORITY SCANNING Priority Scan – When the scanner is scanning a Conventional System, it interrupts scanning, based on the Priority Interval and Max Channels settings, to check priority channels for activity. The more channels you have set to priority, the longer the interruption will be. The Favorites List(s) and System(s) containing the priority channel(s) have to be enabled (and not Avoided) or the scanner will display Priority Scan No Channel. Priority DND – The scanner checks priority channels, based on the Priority Interval and Max Channels settings, only when not receiving other conventional channels so there is no interruption in scanning with conventional systems. Priority ID Scan – This function is similar to conventional priority although there is no interruption during the transmission. Priority is checked in between transmissions, when the scanner is receiving the control channel, and during the channel delay period. The scanner can only look for priority IDs in the trunked system it is currently scanning. Preemptive Priority ID Scanning – For Motorola systems that have channel priority active on the system, if you flag a channel as priority and the system also has that TGID identified as a priority channel, the scanner will preempt any current transmission if the TGID becomes active. The highest priority is for channels in System Quick Key 0. The lowest priority is for channels in System Quick Key 99. Priority for priority channels in the same channel Department follows the order in which the channels were created. To use Priority Scan, you must first set your Priority Channels. To use Priority ID Scan, you must also enable Priority ID Scan for each system. To toggle Priority Modes, press Func then ./no(Pri). Priority is always on for a trunked system, if enabled in the system. 11 SCANNING ORDER With previous scanners, you selected banks to scan. With this scanner, you select Favorites Lists, Systems, Departments, and Sites to scan by assigning Quick Keys to them. Scanning is performed in a mixture of FLQK order and SQK order. The scanner does not scan all Systems in one Favorites List and then move to the next List. For each Favorites List with a quick key, starting with 0, the scanner scans each 0 SQK in FLQK order and then move sto the next set of SQKs for each list. Example: FLQK 0, SQK 0; FLQK 1, SQK 0…. FLQK 98, SQK 99; FLQK 99, SQK, 99. Department and Site Quick Keys are scanned with each System. Systems with the same quick key are scanned in order of creation. The Database is scanned next. Then, Systems with no quick key (including created Quick Save Systems) are scanned and in order of creation. Conventional Channels and Departments within Systems are also scanned in order of creation. TGIDs are not really scanned. The scanner checks for any activity in the trunking system and: • Stops on all unavoided TGIDs when ID Search mode is set to On. • Stops only on programmed TGIDs when ID Search mode is set to Off. Next, any Custom Searches (enabled for Search with Scan) are scanned in order (Close Call Hits last). Then, the scanner scans the Close Call ‘Hits with Scan’ system (if Unavoided). This is a system that automatically stores the frequencies found by Close Call. If the ‘Hits with Scan’ system has no frequencies, the scanner does not scan the system. The scanner scans a system for the duration you set using the System Hold Time option. For trunked systems, the scanner moves to the next system after the hold time expires, the current transmission ends, and the channel delay expires. Conventional systems operate similarly, but all (Unavoided) channels are scanned at least one time regardless of the hold time setting. SCANNING Scanning Checklist: To ensure you do not get a “Nothing to Scan” message on the scanner: 1. You must enable at least one Favorites List or the Full Database in Select Lists to Monitor. 2. Favorites Lists or Systems, with Quick Keys assigned to them, must be enabled with quick keys or through Manage Quick Key Status. 3. Service Types required for channels must be set to On. 4. You must set your location to an area that has channels to scan, or set one or more Favorites Lists to not use Location Control. Any Favorites List not assigned to a quick key, not Avoided, with channels within your current location and range and set to On in Select – to Monitor will be scanned. Any System, Department, or Site (or Quick Save System/Department) not assigned to a quick key and not Avoided, will be scanned. 12 REPLAY THE LAST TRANSMISSIONS While scanning, press Replay. Press Channel to pause/resume replay. Turn the Scroll Control to select recordings. Replay is not available when recording is enabled. START/STOP RECORDING While scanning, press Func then Replay/Reccord. Resets to Off when you turn off the scanner. Note that anything in the replay buffer is also stored with the recording session when you start recording. AVOIDING CHANNELS, DEPARTMENTS, SITES, AND SYSTEMS Temporary Avoids are cleared when you cycle power. You must manually clear permanent avoids. Channel Avoid When the Channel is in the display or in Channel Hold mode: To Temporary Avoid, press AVOID once. To Permanent Avoid, press twice when the channel is in the display or in Channel Hold mode. Department Avoid Press Dept (Soft Key 2) then AVOID once to Temporary Avoid.

UNDERSTANDING LOCATION, RANGE, AND SERVICES All radio systems in your scanner’s database are tagged with location information. A geotag has latitude, longitude, and range. This tag describes a circle centered at the latitude/longitude that fully encompasses the entity (i.e. city, town, state, etc.) served by the radio system. Taking a look at some of the systems in the Fort Worth, TX area, you can see that each system has its own little circle. These roughly outline each system’s intended coverage. Each entry also includes all the radio system information (frequencies, descriptions, tags indicating how each channel is used, etc). If you use your Zip Code as your location, the scanner sets your location to be within 10 miles of the center of the zip code. Good enough for catching local comms. We’ve drawn that circle in using a thicker line on the next map. 17 The scanner selects channels from systems that overlap the thick circle. So, the system down south that covers Burleson is included even though only part of it is covered, but Haslet, way up north, is not included. Each location method uses a different range. In addition to the 10-mile Zip Code radius, the scanner uses: • Auto Locate: 30-miles radius from the discovered radio tower. • GPS or Manual Location: 0-miles radius. 0 miles means that your location is precisely known. For a radio system to be selected, its circle must enclose your precise position. This setting is great if you are traveling…the scanner automatically selects and deselects systems as you drive through each system’s coverage zone. You can manually change the range setting to be bigger (to include more systems) or smaller (to include fewer systems) by going to the Range menu and adjusting the range up or down. SETTING LOCATION/RANGE Press Menu then scroll to Set Your Location and Range and press E/yes. Scroll to through the following option and press E/yes. 18 Enter Zip/Postal Code This sets the center of a zip/postal code as your location (not your exact location) and a default scan range of 10 miles. 1. Select your country (USA or Canada) and press E/yes. 2. Enter your zip code or see Data Naming, to enter a postal code. 3. You can also press the Zip button to enter your zip/postal code. Auto Locate Auto Locate works by trying to monitor any Motorola or P25 system in your area that is also in the Radio Reference Database. This sets the center of the discovered radio tower as your location (not your exact location) and a default scan range of 30 miles. Press E/yes or ./no to accept the location. Press Menu to cancel. Set Manual Location This sets your exact location and a default scan range of 0 miles. You can then edit the location name and save the location. 1. Using the keypad, enter your latitude. 2.

There are three levels of quick key as described below. FAVORITES LIST QUICK KEYS Favorites Lists Quick Keys (FLQK) quickly enable or disable entire Favorites Lists for scanning. There are 100 FLQKs (00-99). These are like the bank keys used on older scanners. You do not have to assign a FLQK to a favorites list, but doing so makes it easier to modify what you are currently scanning. Each FLQK can only be used one time (i.e. two favorites lists cannot have the same FLQK). SYSTEM QUICK KEYS System Quick Keys (SQK) quickly enable or disable conventional and trunked systems for scanning. There are 100 SQKs (00-99). You can use the same SQK for multiple systems. DEPARTMENT/SITES QUICK KEYS Department/Site Quick Keys (DQK) quickly enable or disable departments or sites. There are 100 DQKs (00-99). You can use the same DQK for multiple departments and sites. USING QUICK KEYS To enable or disable a Quick Key, while scanning, enter all or part of: FF.SS.DD then press E. • FF=FQK • SS=SQK • DD=DQK Examples: • 10 E: Toggle FQK 10 • 10.03 E: Toggle SQK 03 in FQK 10 • 10.03.02 E: Toggle DQK 02 in SQK 03 in FQK 10. • .03 E: Toggle SQK 03 in the currently scanned Favorites List • ..04 E: Toggle DQK 04 in the currently scanned system. Toggling a SQK or DQK only affects the quick key within the current hierarchy. If you have the same SQK under a different Favorites List, that SQK is unaffected. You can assign a display area to indicate the FQK/SQK/DQK status. See Customizing the Display, on page 22. SEARCH KEYS You can assign any search function to Search Keys (1, 2, or 3) to quickly go to that search. Use the menu function Search for… → Set Search Key to assign the search functions. To start the search, hold on a channel, the press F+1, 2, or 3. 21 STARTUP KEYS You can program each of your Favorites Lists with a Startup Key (0-9) so that when you power up the scanner and press the key number, just those Favorites List(s) assigned to the key will be enabled for scan. Systems are not affected. Assign a startup key when programming Favorites Lists. To use a startup key, hold it down while powering on the scanner. Items with a matching startup key will be enabled for scanning. Items with a startup key that does not match will be disabled for scanning. Items with no startup key will not be affected. NUMBER TAGS Numbers tags will allow you to tag each Favorites List, System, and Channel so you can quickly go to that element. Number tags can range from 0 to 99 for Favorites Lists and Systems and 0-999 for Channels. To use a number tag, hold on any channel, then enter the tag as FF.SS.CC and press Channel (soft key 3). CHANNEL/ID ALERTS You can program your scanner to alert you when a Channel or Unit ID is received, you receive a Close Call hit, an ID is transmitted with an Emergency Alert or you receive a Tone-out hit. For each alert in the scanner, you can select from 9 different tone patterns, 15 volume settings, 7 colors, and 3 flash patterns. QUICK FREQUENCY TUNING To quickly tune to a frequency and enter quick search mode: 1. Hold on any channel. 2. Key in any frequency. 3. Press CHAN (soft key 3). QUICK TALK GROUP TUNING To quickly tune to a talk group in the trunked system you are currently scanning, while scanning that trunked system: 1. Hold on any channel. 2. Key in the talk group ID. 3. Press CHAN (soft key 3). 22 MENU REFERENCE The scanner’s menu gives you access to all the scanner’s setting as well as programming.

Conventional Discovery mode lets you monitor a range of frequencies, logging frequencies with activity and recording the audio for frequencies that are not already known to be in use in your area so that you can more easily identify the users. This includes frequencies used conventionally as well as in trunked radio systems. In both modes, you also have the option to compare hits to the Database and log all hits or just new hits. If you use the Auto Store option, Discovery will create a new Trunking System for IDs found for each Session or will create a new Conventional System for frequencies found for each Session. You can create and save several sessions with different settings. Every time you start a session you create a Run that can later be reviewed in the scanner or the Sentinel software. RUNNING A DISCOVERY SESSION To start a discovery session: Press MENU → Discovery then select either Trunking Discovery or Conventional Discovery. Select either New Session or an existing session. If you select New Session, you will be prompted to name the session. If you selected Trunking Discovery and this is a new session, you will be prompted to select the trunked system and site to perform discovery on. In order to run trunking discovery, the trunked system and site must be available for scanning (i.e. in and active Favorites List or within the defined location of the Main Database). Select the system and the site. Refer to the following table for Discover options. Menu Item Description Start Discovery Start a discovery session using the currently set parameters. Edit Session Name Edit the name of the selected session. Set Limit Frequencies (Conventional Discovery Only) Set the upper and lower limits of the frequency range you want to run discovery on. Set Modulation (Conventional Discovery Only) Set the demodulation method to use. If set to AUTO (default), the scanner will use the default demodulation method for the frequency. Set Step (Conventional Discovery Only) Set the frequency step size for the session. If set to AUTO (default), the scanner uses the default frequency step for the frequency. Set Delay Sets how long the scanner pauses after a transmission waiting for a reply. Set Logging ALL for all hits; NEW for only items that are not yet discovered in this session. Set Compare to Database On compares hits to database and ignores the hit if it is already in the database. Off records all hits. 43 Menu Item Description Set Record Duration Sets how much audio the scanner records for each hit. Once the record duration has been met, the frequency or TGID is considered “discovered.” Set Time-Out Timer Sets how long the scanner will monitor a hit before resuming scan automatically. This prevents open carriers from locking up the discovery session. System Information (Trunking Only) Displays the Favorites List, system and site used, as well as the type of trunking system. Set Auto Store When on, creates a Favorites List called Conventional Discovery or Trunking Discovery and saves all hits as channels. Delete Session Deletes the discovery session, including all hits. REVIEWING A DISCOVERY SESSION In Review Discovery mode, you can review the results of discovery mode runs, resume runs, or restart saved discovery sessions. 1. Press Menu → Discovery → Review Discovery 2. Select either Trunk Discovery Results or Conventional Discovery Results. 3. Scroll to select the results to review. Refer to the following table for review options: Option Description Review Run Results Select Summary to list be each frequency or talk group id; select Detail to list by each individual hit. Restart this Run Deletes existing log files for this session and starts a new session with the same settings. Resume this Run Keeps existing log files and resumes the session. Delete this Run Deletes the run and all log files for the run. Run Information Displays information about the settings used for the discovery session. 44 USING ANALYZE FEATURES The SDS100 includes some analysis features that can help you find out more information about systems you are scanning. SYSTEM STATUS This function displays the signal strength, decode quality, and how busy the system is in an easyto-decipher display. To uses this function: MENU → Analyze → System Status The scanner prompts for a trunked system to analyze. In order to be analyzed, the system must currently be scannable (in an active Favorites List or Main Database and within the range set for scanning). Enter the first few letters of the system name, then press E to see a list of all matching systems. Scroll to the desired system, then press E. A list of scannable sites for the system is shown. Scroll to the desired site, then press E. System Status mode starts. • S=Signal Strength • Q=Decode Quality • A=System Activity LCN FINDER LCN Finder helps you determine the correct LCN (Logical Channel Number) settings for those systems requiring LCN entry. You first need to create the system. Use any number as the LCN when you create the system, then run the LCN Finder by: MENU → Analyze → LCN Finder The scanner prompts for a trunked system. For LCN Finder to run, the system must currently be scannable (in an active Favorites List or Main Database and within the range set for scanning), and must be a type that requires LCN (EDACS, LTR, MotoTRBO, DMR TIII). Enter the first few letters of the system name, then press E to see a list of all matching systems. Scroll to the desired system, then press E. A list of scannable sites for the system is shown. Scroll to the desired site, then press E. LCN Finder mode starts. 45 Once all LCNs are found, you can save the LCNs to the system. If you abort before all LCNs are found, you can still save the LCNs that were found up to that point. Note that LCN finder works best on systems with moderate activity. Too much traffic or too little traffic make LCN finder take longer to complete for most systems. 46 APPENDIX TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Solution Scan Mode, Nothing to Scan Scanning Interrupted Every Few Seconds All Channels Out of Range • Make sure you Set Your Location to scan the Database. • Make sure Favorites Lists are enabled in Set Scan Selection. • Make sure Service Types are enabled for the Channels you want to hear. • Make sure you have locations programed if Use Location Control is On. • Make sure longitude and latitude are N and W (for N America). • Make sure Systems/Departments/Channels are not Avoided. • Make sure Favorites List/System/Department/Site quick key is enabled. • (Search with Scan) Make sure Search with Scan is enabled in Select Lists to Monitor and the Search for Menu and for the Custom Search. • Turn off Priority Scan. • Change Priority Interval. • Turn off Close Call Priority. • Turn off Weather Priority. • Set Channel Delay longer. • Set positive Channel Delay. • Increase your range. • Change your location. • Turn Location Control off for the Favorites List.

Slightly press down and slide the SD card holder right, then lift out the card. Gently install the SD Card the same way it was removed. REFORMATTING THE MICRO SD CARD SD cards should only be formatted using the special SD Card Formatter (https://www.sdcard.org/ downloads/formatter_4/). Then, you need to “Clear User Data” using Sentinel to restore all files and directories to the card. After formatting, the scanner won’t be automatically detected (since it is wiped clean), so you may need to uncheck “Hide empty drives” in Windows Tools>Folder Options>View before doing the “Clear User Data” step. TYPE II SPECIAL STATUS BITS Type II Motorola Smartnet systems use these status bits for special transmissions such as emergency, patches, DES/DVP scrambled transmissions, and multiselects. Motorola trunking radios directly interpret them for their special functions, thus no difference is noticed by the person with the radio. The scanner however interprets these special talk group status bits as different talk groups entirely. Below is the conversion chart for these special status bits. TT ID + # Usage TT ID + # Usage ID+0 Normal Talk group ID+8 DES/DVP Encryption talk group ID+1 All Talk group ID+9 DES All Talk group ID+2 Emergency ID+10 DES Emergency ID+3 Talk group patch to another ID+11 DES Talk group patch ID+4 Emergency Patch ID+12 DES Emergency Patch ID+5 Emergency multi-group ID+13 DES Emergency multi-group ID+6 unassigned ID+14 unassigned ID+7 Multi-select (initiated by dispatcher) ID+15 Multi-select DES TG Therefore, if a user was transmitting a multi-select call on talk group 1808, the scanner would actually receive those transmissions on 1815. Some common uses of these status bits are as follows: • When a user hits their emergency button, all conversations on the talk group revert to the emergency status talk group (ID+2) until the dispatch clears the emergency status. Therefore, if someone hit their emergency button and their radio was on talk group 16, all communications would switch to talk group 18. • A lot of Fire and EMS departments dispatch tone-outs and alarms as Multi-select communications (ID+7). Therefore, if your fire department dispatch talk group is 1616, and they do dispatch tone-outs and alarms as Multi-selects, then those communications will be on talk group 1623. 50 WEATHER CHANNELS Channel Frequency Channel Frequency 162.550 162.450 162.400 162.500 162.475 162.525 162.425 SAME EVENT CODES Standard Event Code ADR Administrative Message Warning Watch Advisory Advisory AVA Avalanche Watch Admin Message AVW Avalanche Warning Avalanche BHW Biological Hazard Warning Biological BWW Boil Water Warning Boil Water BZW Blizzard Warning CAE Child Abduction Emergency CDW Civil Danger Warning CEM Civil Emergency Message CFA Coastal Flood Watch CFW Coastal Flood Warning Coastal Flood CHW Chemical Hazard Warning Chemical CWW Contaminated Water Warning DBA Dam Watch DBW Dam Break Warning DEW Contagious Disease Warning DMO Practice/Demo DSW Dust Storm Warning EAN Emergency Action Notification EAT Emergency Action Termination EQW Earthquake Warning EVA Evacuation Watch EVI Immediate Evacuation FCW Food Contamination Warning FFA Flash Flood Watch FFS Flash Flood Statement FFW Flash Flood Warning FLA Flood Watch FLS Flood Statement FLW Flood Warning Flood FRW Fire Warning Fire Avalanche Blizzard Child Emergency Civil Danger Civil EMG Coastal Flood Contam.
