Understanding Object Oriented Scanning
Your PRO-651 scanner utilizes an entirely new
method of programming called Object Oriented
Scanning. In Object Oriented Scanning, all
“Scannable Objects” are treated the same.
Scannable Objects include talkgroups on
trunked radio systems, conventional non-trunked
frequencies, limit searches, service searches,
and Signal Stalker II configurations. All these
Scannable Objects are created, edited, grouped,
scanned and deleted using the same methods.
Scannable Objects can also be searched, filtered,
and locked out.
Scannable Objects are mapped to Scan Lists,
which can be named, enabled, and disabled.
There is even a Favorites Scan List. It is easy to
search for new frequencies or talkgroups and
add them to Scan List groups. It is also easy to
delete or deactivate objects and Scan Lists that
you do not want to listen to, including a powerful
temporary lockout mode that allows you to zero
in on activity associated with a specific incident,
then restore your desired configuration when the
incident is over.
Object Oriented Scanning is completely different
from any prior scanning receiver technology.
Accordingly, some users may find it difficult to
visualize and understand how Object Oriented
Scanning works. This may be especially true for
users who are familiar with more recent scanning
receiver technologies.
We suggest that you keep the following Object
Oriented Scanning Tenets in mind as you
proceed with your study of this manual.
