Cloning Your Radio to Another PSR-310 or PSR-410
Scanner
Your PSR-310 features a high speed data interface that can be used to trans-
fer the data from your scanner to another PSR-310 or PSR-410 scanner from
GRE.
To clone your radio to another unit, use a standard stereo patch cord termi-
nated with 1/8” male stereo phone plugs on each end to connect your radio
(the SOURCE radio) to another radio (the TARGET radio). Ensure that both
radios are powered on. Press the PGM key, then the
GLOB
softkey to en-
ter the Global Settings menu. On the SOURCE radio, scroll to the
Clone
Send:
option, then press the SEL key when you are ready to send data
from your SOURCE radio to the TARGET radio. Both working memory and
global settings are transferred.
NOTE: The contents of working memory on the TARGET radio will be over-
written immediately when SEL is pressed on the SOURCE radio.
Standard Text Entry Method and QuickText
Your PSR-310 features a high-contrast, backlit alphanumeric display that
provides constant feedback about what the radio is doing while scanning
and monitoring your “Scannable Objects”. To get the most out of your scan-
ner and this display, you will want to name your objects as you program
them into the radio. This allows for easy identification of active objects while
the radio is scanning, and makes it easier than ever to find objects that you
wish to monitor, edit or delete using the powerful FIND feature.
Your scanner uses a simple text entry method that allows entry of all upper-
case and lowercase letters of the alphabet, numbers, and punctuation sym-
bols. Your scanner also features GRE's exclusive QuickText feature, which al-
lows you to store up to 10 commonly used text items for instant recall while
editing alphanumeric fields.
Entering and Editing Alphanumeric Information
A Standard Text Entry Method is used for entering alphanumeric information
into the radio. This method allows easy access to each letter in the alphabet
by pressing two keys that represent the letter.
Take a moment to study the numeric keys on the keypad and you will notice
that keys 2-9 each have three or four letters silk screened on the front panel
just above each key. To enter a letter in an alphanumeric text field, simply
press the number key below the letter you wish to type first, then press the
number key that corresponds with the position of the letter in the silk screen
group. For example, the number 2 is used to access the letters A, B and C.
To type the letter A, press 2 to select the ABC group, then 1 to select the first
