Certain multi-zone Motorola systems use the same talkgroup IDs at multiple radio sites to cover a large geographical area. In these types of systems it may be possible to program multiple control channel frequencies into the same channel storage bank and allow the scanner to lock on to the different control channels as you move from zone to zone. This approach only works in networked systems where the same talkgroup IDs are used at multiple sites. It is not possible to program Motorola/APCO-25 and EDACS systems into the same channel storage bank.

7.If desired, program a text tag for the channel (see “Assigning a Text Tag to a Channel” on Page 45).

When you are ready to program additional channels, press PGM orSto move up to the next channel memory location, or T to move down.

PROGRAMMING TRUNKED SYSTEMS

This section of the manual provides instructions to program your scanner to receive trunked radio systems. If you are just getting started with trunked system monitoring or have any questions about how your PRO-96 scanner operates when tracking trunked radio systems. See “Trunking Special Features” on Page 83.

For best results, program only one trunking system in each channel storage bank of your scanner. Your scanner will lock on to the first active control channel it finds in a channel storage bank and follow the activity from that trunking system. Ó

Channel storage banks may contain both conventional, non- trunked channels, and control or system channels for a trunked system. The scanner will check for activity on the conventional channels after processing the trunking system.
