Tone Out mode
This page applies only to the BCD996XT. For other models see:
● BCD396XT and BC346XT Tone Out Mode
● BCT15X Tone Out Mode
With the tone out feature, the scanner monitors up to 10 different channels for paging tones (two-tone
sequential, single tone, and group tone). Normally, the scanner monitors each of the 10 channels in turn.
However, if any tone-out channels share the same frequency, modulator, and attenuator settings, the scanner
checks these channels simultaneously.
Configuring Tone Out channels
To configure Tone-Out channels:
1. Press FUNCTION + Squelch knob.
2. Select the Tone-Out channel ( Tone-Out 1 through Tone-Out 10 ) you want to configure.
3. Press E to enter the configuration menu and set the properties as desired.

Using Tone-Out Mode

attenuator settings).
