PSR-410 O/Manual The rubber feet help prevent sliding on smooth surfaces, and will help prevent scratching of your desk or tabletop. Do not use the rubber feet if you plan to attach the mounting bracket to a fixed surface with screws. Attach the two self-adhesive rubber washers to the inside of the mounting bracket sides, over the holes that are used when attaching the bracket to the scanner’s side holes. Be sure to align the holes in the washer carefully with the holes in the mounting bracket.
PSR-410 O/Manual Mobile operation By attaching the mounting bracket such that it is located on top of the radio, it is possible to mount the radio underneath your vehicle’s dashboard, or in any other mounting location where the radio will be suspended from above. You may also use the mounting bracket such that it is located underneath of the radio, which makes it possible to mount the radio on top of any flat surface in your vehicle.
PSR-410 O/Manual Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) terminal of your vehicle’s battery prior to attempting any connections to your vehicle’s electrical system. Note: Disconnecting your battery may reset certain devices in your vehicle, such as automotive audio systems, navigation systems, alarm systems, keyless entry systems, etc. Route the suppled DC power cord between a power source and the mounting location for your scanner.
PSR-410 O/Manual Note: When your radio is connected to your vehicle’s DC power system, you may hear noise from your vehicle’s electrical system in the radio’s speaker. Consult with a local electronics supply store to obtain a filter that will reduce or eliminate this noise. Connecting an earphone or headphones For private listening, you can plug an 1/8” (3.5mm) mini-plug earphone or headphones (not supplied), into the headphone jack on the from panel. This automatically disconnects the internal speaker.
PSR-410 O/Manual The antenna connector on your scanner makes it easy to use the scanner with a variety of antennas, such as an external mobile antenna or outdoor base station antenna. Always use 50-ohm coaxial cable, such as RG-58 or RG-8 low-loss dielectric coaxial cable. For lengths over 50 feet, use RG-8 low-loss dielectric coaxial cable. If the antenna cable’s connector does not have a BNC connector, you will also need a BNC adaptor.
PSR-410 O/Manual Creating Your First New Objects When the scanner is first turned on after it is unpacked, you are working with a clean slate. You will notice that your scanner tells you this: LCD illust The scanner is in program mode and is ready for you to enter the first Objects into the memory. The scanner prompts you to Press NEW to create objects.
PSR-410 O/Manual We also recommend that you label your CONV object by giving it a name in the TAG field. This will make it easier for you to find the CONV object later, and identify it when the scanner stops to monitor activity. Enter your CONV object by following these steps. As we mentioned above, a brand new radio will launch into Program Mode when it is first turned on, which allows for creation and editing of Scannable Objects.
PSR-410 O/Manual To see the help text for a menu item, press FUNC, then press SEL on the 5-way pushbutton pad. To exit help, press SEL again. As you scroll the object menu, you will see a line that states: vv EXPERT BELOW vv This line is found in the object menus and the Global configuration menus.
PSR-410 O/Manual NOTE: Your scanner uses Scan Lists as a way to group objects together according to your preferences for scanning. By default, all new objects are mapped to Scan List 01. There are a total of twenty regular Scan Lists in your radio, a special Favorites Scan List, and a Scan List to hold Skywarn objects. Scan List membership for an object is assigned in the individual object menus. For now, just let your new objects go to the default Scan List 01.
PSR-410 O/Manual The first time you make a TGRP for a particular trunked radio system, you must also create a TSYS that contains the system parameters associated with that trunked radio system. Once you create a TSYS object for the trunked radio system, you can use the TSYS object over and over again without having to re-enter all of the system data.
PSR-410 O/Manual 32E 61M If necessary, use the decimal/period key or the CLR key to delete any unnecessary characters, and press the SAVE softkey to save your TSYS name.

HINT: TGRP objects are also used to receive Private/Individual Calls on trunking systems that support these call types. Simply change the Type: field from Group to Private.
PSR-410 O/Manual about TGRP objects in particular: With regard to trunked radio systems, it is important to note that a "system" cannot be scanned. If one wishes to monitor radio traffic on a trunked radio system, one must create a TGRP object. A TGRP object includes the parameters for a trunked radio system so that it will operate properly.
PSR-410 O/Manual and saved in memory. Be certain to delete any DUPEd objects that you create accidentally. Basic Scanning Operation Now that you have entered a few CONV or TGRP objects you can experiment with Scan and Manual operation. Activating Scan Mode will cause your scanner to scan through all Scannable Objects that are members of enabled Scan Lists and are not locked out. Manual Mode allows you to browse the Scannable Objects you have created so you can select just one to monitor.
PSR-410 O/Manual browsing. A quick low-high wrap beep is played when the scanner reaches the last occupied Scan List and wraps back to the beginning.
PSR-410 O/Manual Instead of fixed channels and banks, objects are stored in the first available block of free memory and assigned an Object ID. The Object ID is the “address” where the object is stored in memory. The Object ID is displayed as a four digit number in the upper left-hand corner of the display whenever an object is selected in Manual Mode and Program modes, and when the scanner stops on an active object while scanning.
PSR-410 O/Manual Displaying Memory Usage Your scanner can report how much free memory is available for new objects, and show how much memory has been used, and how the memory is allocated to different types of objects.
PSR-410 O/Manual applies to the active frequency as the search proceeds. And again, we recommend that you give the LMIT object a name in the Tag: field so that you can easily find or identify it later. To create a new LMIT object, press PROG to place your scanner into Program Mode, then press the NEW softkey, then press the SRCH softkey to view the available Search types, then press the LMIT softkey.
