Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when you use an earphone or headphones.

•Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended high volume listening can lead to permanent hearing loss.

•Set the VOL to the lowest setting before you begin listening. After you begin listening, adjust the VOL to a comfortable level.

•Once you set the VOL, do not increase it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume level that does not cause discomfort might still damage your hearing.

Connecting the Clone Cable

You can transfer the programmed data to and from another UBC785XLT scanner using a RS232C Cable (9 pin to 9 pin) (not supplied). Connect the cable between each scanner’s REMOTE jacks. See "Clone Mode" on page 41. You can also upload or download the programmed data to or from a PC using an optional PC interface kit available through your local electronics store.

Connecting the Tape Recorder

You can use a standard tape recorder or a VOX (Voice Operated Control) recorder. To connect the recorder to the scanner, connect a cable with a 1/8 inch (3.5 mm) plug from the tape recorder’s remote jack to the TAPE OUT jack on the back of the scanner. (Your local electronics store should carry a wide selection of cables and tape recorders.) Refer to the "Record" section under "Additional Features" in the manual.

Remember!

•You must mark a channel, ID, talkgroup, or bank for Recording in order for this feature to work.

•This feature does not work if your scanner is set with MUTE ON.
