PRECAUTIONS EARPHONE WARNING! Be sure to use only a monaural earphone with this scanner. You can also use an optional stereo headset. Use of an incorrect earphone or mono headset might be potentially hazardous to your hearing. The output of the phone jack is monaural, but you will hear it in both headphones of a stereo headset. Set the volume to a comfortable audio level coming from the speaker before plugging in the monaural earphone or headset.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW IMPORTANT! This scanning radio has been manufactured so that it will not tune to the radio frequencies assigned by the FCC for cellular telephone usage. The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986, as amended, makes it a federal crime to intentionally intercept cellular or cordless telephone transmissions or to market this radio when altered to receive them.
suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas causer d’interférences, et (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si les interférences sont susceptibles d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
MAIN FEATURES Trunk Tracker V Operation – follows conversations on analog Motorola, Motorola Astro 25 (APCO 25), P25 One-Frequency Trunk, EDACS, EDACS SCAT, and LTR trunked radio systems, including systems in VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands. APCO 25 Phase I and Phase II Support – allows you to receive transmissions with these decoding protocols.
Individual Channel Volume Offset – allows you to adjust the volume offset for each channel. Control Channel Data Output – allows the analysis of control channel data without the need to perform invasive modifications to the scanner. Private Systems – lets you flag a system so that it cannot be read out of the scanner or modified (only with optional software). Key Safe Mode – lets you hand the scanner to a novice user and prevent programming from being modified.
Close Call Temporary Store - temporarily stores and scans the last 10 Close Call hits in the ‘Hits with Scan’ system. Fire Tone-Out Standby/Tone Search - lets you set the scanner to alert you if a two-tone sequential page is transmitted. You can set up to 10 settings (transmit frequency, tone frequencies) then select one for standby monitoring. The scanner will also search and display unknown tones.
Quick Search - lets you search from the currently-tuned frequency or channel or enter a frequency and start searching. Automatic Channel Setup - accepts frequencies on any valid channel step, even if it does not fall within the band plan’s default steps. Configurable Band Defaults - allows you to set the step (5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5,15, 20, 25, 50 or 100 kHz) and modulation (AM, FM, NFM, WFM, or FMB) for 31 different bands.
CTCSS and DCS systems all use some form of coded squelch. Coded squelch techniques involve the transmission of a special ‘code’ signal along with the audio of a radio transmission. A receiver with coded squelch only activates when the received signal has the correct ‘code’. This lets many users share a single frequency, and decreases interference caused by distant transmitters on the same channel.

like a short blip of static like someone keyed up and unkeyed a radio within about 500 msec. LTR systems are limited to 20 frequencies per system. UNDERSTANDING MULTI-SITE TRUNKING Some Motorola and EDACS systems covering a very large geographic area use multiple antenna sites that each operate on different frequencies and use the same talkgroup IDs for traffic. Each site has its own set of trunking frequencies and is monitored like a single system.
INCLUDED WITH YOUR SCANNER Accessories included in the box are: Not Shown: • USB Cable • Hand Strap • Rechargeable AA Ni-Mh batteries (2) • Belt Clip (attached) BCD325P2 Scanner Antenna Printed Materials: • Owner’s Manual (English, French) • APP Form • FREQ Form OPERATION BASICS CONNECT THE ANTENNA Connect the antenna to the antenna post. Press and twist the antenna onto the connector to secure it. USING BATTERIES You can power your BCD325P2 using two alkaline or rechargeable AA batteries 1.
When battery icon flashes and the scanner beeps every 15 seconds, replace or recharge the batteries. The scanner has a built-in circuit that lets you recharge rechargeable batteries while they are in the scanner. When the scanner is turned on, the scanner will not charge the batteries.

Alert in GPS Display Mode 69
There are three ranges for each Dangerous Xing or Dangerous Road alert: 1 mile/ km, .5 mile/km and .1 mile/km. The scanner alerts once for each range when it meets both of the following two conditions: 1. The first condition is heading for the Location. A valid heading is within ±45˚ of the value set in Set Heading. 2. The second condition is speed. It meets this condition when the current speed exceeds the speed that is set in Set Speed Limit.
2. Enter a range from (.05 to 4 mi/km in .05 mi/km steps) and press E/yes to save and exit. Set Heading (Dangerous Road/Xing only) sets how the scanner alerts you to the location based on how you approach it. To make the alert direction-dependent, select a direction of approach. Select ‘All Range’ to be alerted regardless of your direction of approach. The default setting is ‘All Range’. 1. Scroll to ‘Set Heading’ and press E/yes. 2.
The left side of the 1st line displays the current direction of travel. The right side of the 1st line displays the present time. The left side of the 2nd line displays the current speed.
