Internal Clock/Calendar
Your scanner includes a real time clock/calendar that is
used to correctly date and time stamp recorded audio
files. The first time you power on your scanner, you will
be prompted to set the time and date.
If batteries are allowed to fully discharge, or if they are
removed from the scanner for more than a few minutes,
the date and time will need to be set again. You can
also set the date and time over the USB connection
using the EZ Scan Software, or directly on the radio
using the Set Clock function in the Main Menu.
Monitoring and Scanning
When programmed, your scanner provides two basic
functions for scanning radio transmissions:
• Monitoring – Listening to a single object.
• Scanning – Checking multiple saved objects,
stopping when a transmission is detected.
To scan more quickly, you can skip or lock out
frequencies that you do not wish to scan. A skipped
frequency is ignored during the current scan; a locked
out frequency is ignored for all scans unless it is
unlocked.
To monitor a frequency or talkgroup:
1. From the main menu, select Browse Objects, then
press .
2. Use the direction keys to browse Scanlists and
objects.
3. Press /II/SEL to monitor the displayed frequency.
4. Press or to select another object or press
/II/SEL to begin scanning.
To scan your active Scanlists:
1. Press MENU.
2. Select Scan from the main menu and press or
/II/SEL.
3. To pause the scan, press /II/SEL when scanner
stops on a transmission. To resume scanning, press
/II/SEL again.
