Uniden BC245XLT manual Xpand

An icon will show an “E” in the display when you have programmed an EDACSÆsystem.

Note: The BC 245XLT defaults to “AFS” talk group displays for EDACS Æonly. AFS describes most systems in the following manner:

Using the sample talk group 01-011:

01 is the Agency Level (such as police)

01-01 describes the Agency and fleet level (such as police patrol)

01-011 describes the Agency, fleet and subfleet level (such as police patrol east side) of a particular talk group

EDACS systems are organized in a logical way that keeps related talk groups together. Your scanner is designed to use this organization to make your scanning easy. It has two new features, AFS and XPAND, to let you zero in on just the part of the system you want to hear, whether it is an individual channel or an entire department or city.

AFS Display

AFS (Agency-Fleet-Subfleet) is the numbering system used in the TrunkTracker II to display and enter EDACS talk groups. Systems differ, but AFS will help you recognize and program them all. And AFS works together with XPAND to provide a new kind of scanning flexibility.

XPAND

XPAND lets you expand or narrow searching and scanning to one of 4 levels. By entering only the desired part of a talk group, you can select 2048 talk groups, 128 talk groups, 8 talk groups, or a single talk group. For example, you might program every talk group in a police department with just 4 key presses.
