When there is activity on an EDACS system, that infor- mation is sent out on the control channel. The scanner decodes the ID for the active talk group. In the Open mode, the scanner then goes to the transmission and dis- plays the talk group ID on the bottom line of the display. In the Closed mode, the scanner only goes to transmis- sions that have ID’s that match a talk group ID that you have stored in the bank’s talk group ID list and have not locked out.

Because EDACS scanning requires you to have clear re- ception of the control channel at all times, EDACS sys- tems tend to have a smaller usable area. An external antenna can greatly improve EDACS scanning in a fringe area. If you are having trouble scanning an EDACS sys- tem, try manually selecting the data channel. If you are getting good reception, the scanner will indicate talk group CTR-01. Try changing your location or using an outdoor antenna to improve reception.
