Programming EDACS
Systems
Follow the instructions in this section to program information
for EDACS Wide, EDACS Narrow, and EDACS SCAT
trunking systems. Note that to program these systems, in
addition to knowing the system type and frequencies used,
you must know the logical channel numbers (LCN) for the
system’s frequencies. This information is usually provided with
the frequency and other information. For more information
refer to “Understanding Scanning.”
Programming EDACS Channels
1. Select the trunk type.
2:SCAN OPTION → 2:TRUNK → Select the
bank → 1:TRUNK TYPE → 1:ON
6:EDCS WIDE
Select for 9600 baud EDACS systems.
7:EDCS NARROW
Select for 4800 baud EDACS systems.
8:EDCS SCT.
Select for EDACS SCAT systems.
2. Program each trunk channel in LCN order (not frequency
order). If you program this in the wrong order, the scanner
will not go to the correct channel when scanning.
2:TRUNK CHANNEL
ENTER CHANNEL No.
a. Enter the channel to program.
1:FREQUENCY
b. Enter the frequency then the alpha tag for the channel
Repeat a and b for each channel in the system.
Note: EDACS SCAT systems use only one channel.
Once you complete channel programming, see “Programming
Talkgroups.”
