Moving between Scan List Memories
There are a number of ways to step and move through your Scan List memories:
1.Press HOLD/MAN in the ID Scan mode and rotate the VFO to move to up or down.
2.Or, press HOLD/MAN in the ID Scan mode, next press
0-9(scan list number), then press 0-9(memory position). For example to move to Scan List 4, memory position 10, press: HOLD/MAN, 4, 0, HOLD/MAN
Set Activity ID to ON, when your scanner finds an active ID during a transmission the active ID appears every 0.5 seconds.
I-Call (Motorola/EDACS)
I-Calls are direct unit-to-unit transmissions that are not heard by other system users. Your UBC3300XLT can receive these transmissions. How you receive I-Calls depends on whether you are in Search or Scan mode.
During I-Call reception the display will show the Unit ID number of either the transmitting or receiving mobile unit, not a talkgroup. Unit IDs will display differently according to the type of trunked system, and will replace the n's shown here.
EDACS and MOTOROLA TYPE 1 | innnnn |
MOTOROLA TYPE 2 | 7nnnnn |
Hint -- There are thousands of Unit IDs in typical systems, but relatively few I-Calls at a given moment, so it is normally best to let the scanner receive any I-Calls without trying to specify particular units.
I-CALLS IN SEARCH MODE
In Search mode, the scanner default is that I-Call reception is OFF. This means that I-Calls will not be received until you program them to be ON. You have three choices for controlling I-Call reception. Through the Menu system, go to 2:SCAN OPTION / 2:TRUNK - select bank number -/ 8:I-CALL, and make your selection.
The menu choices are:
| | I-CALLs | TALKGROUPS | |
1 | ON | YES | Received normally | Use this choice to receive I-Calls |
| | | | together with normal |
| | | | talkgroup traffic. |
2 | OFF | Not received | Received normally | This is the default. |
3 | ONLY | YES | NOT RECEIVED | Use this setting to listen to I-Calls, |
| | | | and block all talkgroup reception. |
| | | | For quick access to this mode, |
| | | | press . (decimal) then RSM. |
