0BANK TAG | Uniden UBC780XLT specs

3.Tone Search - In this mode, as soon as the scanner stops on any (non-trunked) channel, the scanner will begin to search for any subaudible tone that is being used on a transmitted frequency. The scanner will check each CTCSS tone sequentially and it will find DCS tones instantly.

0:BANK TAG

Allows you to set an alphanumeric text tag for individual banks in the scanner (1-10).(The “0” key represents Bank number 10.) For example, you may wish to set the Bank One text tag as Law Enforcement, the second bank as Fire, etc.

2:CHANNEL DATA

Choose the channel number. The following options are available for the selected channel only. Repeat using a different channel number, if necessary.

1:ALPHA TAG

Allows you to set an alphanumeric text tag for individual frequencies that you have programmed. For example, you can set CITY PD CH #3.

2:DELAY

The default delay for all programmed channels and talkgroups is two seconds. At the end of any transmission the scanner will remain on the frequency for two seconds before resuming scanning. This will allow you to catch most replies. You can change the delay to 1, or 4 seconds as well as set no delay (the scanner will immediately resume scanning after the end of a transmission). With the UBC780XLT you can also set negative or inverse delays, also known as Pause. With a 5 second pause, for example, the scanner will resume scanning after five seconds even if the transmission you are currently listening to has not ended. Finally, you can set an Infinite Delay. If a transmission is received on a frequency with Infinite delay set, the scanner will stop on the channel and remain on it until you have hit scan,

search, etc.

3:TONE DATA

You can set a CTCSS (analog) or DCS (digital) sub-audible tone for a frequency. To do so you must have the Squelch Mode in the System Menu set to Tone Squelch. You can also program a subaudible tone easily by pressing the E (enter) key after programming a frequency. This will bring up the Tone Data menu without your having to navigate the Menu. You can also lock a tone assigned to a frequency. By doing this you will receive all transmissions on the frequency, regardless of the subaudible tone, except the one which you have locked. Any transmissions with that tone will not be received.

4:BEEP ALERT

You can set a Beep Alert on a per-channel basis to alert you when specific frequencies are active. For example, you may wish to be alerted anytime a mutual aid fire frequency is active. With beep alert, you will hear a rapid three-beep tone at the start of each transmission that you have flagged as such. You will also notice that as you scroll pass the flagged channel(s), you will hear the tones.

5:ATTENUATOR

The UBC780XLT comes with an RF Attenuation feature. If you are near an unusually strong signal source, the signal may overload the scanner. The scanner may stop repeatedly on that signal and miss other transmissions.
