Creating Scannable Objects
have the option to save or lock out new
talkgroups as they appear.
• Wildcard objects are easier to find and
change later if you include an abbreviated
name for the system in the tag field.
• TGRP objects are also used to receive
Private/Individual Calls on trunking systems
that support these call types.
Duplicate (DUPE)
Duplicate (DUPE) is useful when entering multiple
TGRP objects that are hosted on the same
trunked radio system, or multiple CONV objects
that have similar parameters or tag names.
1. Press PGM.
2. Press p or q to scroll to the object that you
wish to duplicate.
3. Press the EDIT softkey, then press the DUPE
softkey.
An exact copy of the object you selected is
created, and the scanner displays the newly
created object menu so you can change the
parameters that need to be changed. Be sure
to change the tag name before saving your
new object.
4. Press the SAVE softkey to save the new
object.
Note: As soon as you press DUPE, a duplicate of
the selected object is created and saved in memory.
Be sure to delete any objects that you create
accidentally. See “Deleting Objects” on page 48.
