You can also enter or display EDACS talk groups in
decimal format 
to switch the scanner between AFS and decimal mode. But you cannot use XPAND when in decimal mode.
You can program a specific talk group such as
01, 
, 
(all 01 groups will be scanned)
Or you can program all the talk groups within one fleet of an Agency by pressing, for example:
01, , 01, 
(all 01 talk groups within the 01 Agency will be scanned)
You can also “Blockout” a large number of talk groups by pressing 
after entering an Agency or an Agency and Fleet into memory. This is a very powerful feature!
Note: In AFS mode, Agency numbers range from 00 through 15.
If you prefer to view and program talk groups in “decimal”
mode, press and hold 
for two seconds while in an EDACS trunking bank and the display method will change.
It will stay changed until you press and hold 
again for two seconds while in EDACS operation. Decimal mode will not work with partial talk groups entered in AFS mode into Scan List memory.
