Creating Scannable Objects
to scan or monitor, and the Modulation (MODE)
should be set to Auto (au), AM, FM, or NFM.
Note: When MODE is set for Auto, the scanner
will automatically select the default mode based
on the frequency you enter. In most cases it will
not be necessary to change MODE.
We also recommend labeling your CONV object
by giving it a name in the TAG field. This makes
it easier to find the CONV object later and
identifies it when the scanner stops to monitor
activity.
Creating a CONV Object
1. Press PGM to put scanner in Program Mode.
2. Press NEW softkey to create new object.
3. Press CONV softkey to enter a conventional
channel object.
4. Press q to scroll through the conventional
channel object parameters until the flashing
cursor appears next to the Freq: label.
5. Use the number keys and • to enter the
frequency, including the decimal point.
6. Press ENT or the DONE softkey to store the
frequency parameter in your conventional
object.
Note: Go to www.radioreference.com for up-to-
date frequency information.
Changing Text Tags
By default, your new conventional object will be
tagged “Channel.” We recommend that you
rename your CONV object, making it easier to
find it later, and identifying it when the scanner
stops to monitor activity.
