ID Lockout

Like conventional scanning, it’s possible to lockout unwanted traffic. This is particularly important in trunked systems because in many areas, water meters, door alarms, traffic signals, and other mechanical devices are assigned IDs just like other users. Also some departments scramble or encrust their communications, and you may want to lock out these unintelligible broadcasts.

To Lockout an ID, press L/O on the ID you want to lockout.

The ID is locked out. You can Lockout up to 100 IDs. An Error message ("Full") is displayed when you try to register the 101st lockout.

Note: If you Lockout an ID in Search mode, it is also locked out in Scan List mode. Conversely, if you Lockout an ID while in Scan List mode, it is locked out in Search mode. For information about Scan Lists see page 31.

EDACS BLOCKOUT is a powerful form of ID Lockout that can be used only with AFS and EDACS systems. This feature lets you lockout entire Agencies or Fleets, not just individual talkgroups. Using EDACS Blockout you can, for example, prevent Search from stopping on any of hundreds of talkgroups in the Utilities agency. You can do this with just a few key presses. To use this mode just enter the Agency-part, or the Agency-Fleet part, of the talkgroup code and press L/O. For example, to Blockout Agency 4 in Trunk Search, press HOLD/RESUME, 0, 4, (decimal key), and then L/O. For other ways to use partial AFS entry, be sure to read the section "EDACS Reception".

Hint: Press and hold L/O for 2 seconds to check all locked out IDs when in the Trunking mode.
