Trunk Scanning
hybrid systems, you must first program the fleet map (see “Type I and
Hybrid Trunked Systems” on p. 54).
• If you are programming frequencies for an EDACS system you must
store them in the Logical Channel Number order (usually listed as
LCN#). For example, LCN1 would go into channel 01 for the current
bank, and LCN2 would go into channel 02.
• If you are programming frequencies for an LTR system you must
store them in the home repeater order. For example, home repeater
order 1 would go into channel 01 for the current bank, and home
repeater order 2 would go into channel 02
Follow these steps to program trunked frequencies:
1. From Scan or Manual Mode, press ENT/PGM to put the scanner in
Programming Mode.
2. Press FUNC + T or S to select a bank. Hold down T or S to move
through the bank selection faster.
3. Press T or S to select a channel. Hold down T or S to move through
the channel selection faster.
4. Press TRUNK/MODE to enter the Trunk ID Programming Mode.
5. Repeatedly press FUNC + TRUNK/MODE to select MOT (Motorola),
EDCS, LT, or EDCS SCAT. This sets the talk group ID decoding method
to be used for the bank.

5. Press ENT/PGM to enter Programming Mode.
6. Enter the desired trunking frequency then press ENT/PGM to store.
7. Press FUNC + TRUNK/MODE to select the appropriate mode (MO, ED,
or LT).

8. To enter additional trunking frequencies as subsequent channels in the
same bank, press ENT/PGM or S to access the next open channel.
Repeat steps 6 and 7 to enter the frequencies. (See “Programming
Frequencies into Channels” on p. 17).
9. Press SCAN to start scanning.
Notes:
• If you enter a frequency that has already been entered, the scanner
sounds an error tone and displays “Duplicate Freq.” and the channel
number. If the dual entry is an error press CL and enter the correct
frequency. If the dual entry is intentional press ENT/PGM to accept.
• You may replace any frequency by selecting the bank and channel,
pressing ENT/PGM and entering the new frequency.
• If you make an error in the entry process, repeatedly press CL to erase
the incorrect data.
Using Trunk Scanning Scan Delay
Sometimes a user might pause before replying to a transmission. You can set
the scanner to hold on an ID for 2 seconds to wait for a reply. The scanner
continues to monitor the ID for 2 seconds after the transmission stops before
resuming scanning.
Press •/DELAY to turn trunk scanning scan delay on or off. DLY appears when
the scan delay is set to on.
Skipping a Trunked Bank
You can scan conventional frequencies programmed in the same bank
by holding down S for about 1 second in Trunk Mode. If there is no
conventional frequency, the scanner scans the next bank.
