Menu Description and Numeric Keypad Equivalents

Below are the menu screens and a brief description or purpose of the feature.

1:SYSTEM DATA

1:DIMMER

Allows you to change the brightness of the display.

2:SCREEN MASK

Screen Mask allows you to limit what appears on the display to the alpha tags that you have set for a channel along with a few function icons. Screen Mask removes the frequency, receiving mode, tone data, signal strength bars, and the trunking repeater activity indicators. This mode is particularly useful in public safety vehicles where “information overload” is already a problem. Screen Mask does not work in Search mode.

3:KEY BEEP

Use this function to turn off the keypad acknowledgement beep. The default setting is on.

4:ENTER LOCK

Use Enter Lock to prevent accidental re-programming of channels and talkgroups entered into memory. The default setting is off.

5:PC CONTROL

Use this function to set the transfer speed (baud rate) at which your personal computer (PC) communicates with the scanner when downloading information into your scanner using the third party software. See page 55 for details.

6:CLONE

You can clone all the programming, including frequencies, talkgroups and alpha tags as well as bank settings and other parameters from one UBC780XLT to another.

7:SMART SCAN

Not applicable.

8:DATA SKIP

A scanner will normally stop on any transmission it receives. This means the UBC780XLT will occasionally stop on data signals and unmodulated transmissions. You can automatically skip many of these types of transmissions during search.

9:SQUELCH MODE

The Squelch Mode allows you to set, at your option, whether the scanner will stop on all active transmissions on a particular frequency or it will only respond to transmissions with a pre-set sub-audible tone. This applies to both conventional search and scan modes.The options are as follows:

1.CSQ - The default setting is CSQ (carrier squelch). In this mode the scanner will stop on any transmission on a programmed frequency (Squelch mode does not apply to trunking).

2.Tone SQ - In Tone Squelch mode, if you have set a subaudible tone (CTCSS or DCS) for a frequency, the scanner will only stop on that frequency if the transmission includes the prescribed tone.
