The scanner displays warning level as “Warning WX,” “Watch WX” or “Advisory WX” and it displays decoded Event Code.

When an alert is received, press any key to listen to the alert.

The scanner will mute and scan only the weather channels.

WARNING! If you receive an alert it will be at FULL volume.

Fire Tone-Out

Fire Tone-Out will monitor up to 32 different channels for paging tones (two-tone sequential, single tone, and group tone).

Tone-Out Standby Mode is used if you use programmed tones.

Tone-Out Search Mode is used if you don’t know the tones.

All tone-outs (channels) that have the same frequency (and modulation and attenuation) as the one you select will also (and only) be monitored so you can monitor up to 32 tone-out channels for one frequency.

In this case, the scanner displays each tone-out channel for two seconds. It does not scan them; tone-out monitors the frequency for all tone-out channels with the same frequency.

Regardless of the current display, the scanner will alert on any received tone out that matches a stored setting (channel) for the frequency.

Note: Tone-Out Search Mode will not display each Tone-Out channel for two seconds, even when multiple channels have the same frequency, modulation and attenuator settings with other channels.

Tone-Out Setup

Press Menu. Scroll to Tone-Out for... and press E/yes.
