transmissions operate independently of each other. Your scanner will not decode digital voice transmissions for CTCSS or DCS channels. Use FM mode for mixed analog and digital voice transmissions.

To define a channel’s CTCSS or DCS code:

1.Press PGM. M changes to P.

2.Navigate to the channel.

3.Enter a conventional frequency.

4.Press MODE until the desired mode (CT or DC) appears with the default search code value.

5.Press FUNC, then MODE.

6.Use the  or  to select the desired CTCSS or DCS code.

You can enter the code manually. The scanner automatically fills in the code. See Appendix B for a list of codes.

6. Press ENT.

To save a CTCSS or DCS code:

Press ENT while the code appears.

Scanner Cloning

You can transfer the programmed data to and from another PRO-164 (or PRO-163) scanner using a connecting cable which has 1/8-inch stereo (TRS) phone plugs on both ends (not supplied).

You can also upload or download the programmed data to or from a PC using an optional USB cable and application software available through your local RadioShack store.
