ID Lockout
Like conventional scanning, it’s possibleto lockout
unwanted traffic. This is particularly importantin trunked
systems because in many areas water meters, door
alarms, traffic signals, and other mechanical devices are
assigned IDs just like other users. Also some departments
scramble or encrypt their communications, and you may
want to lock out these unintelligible broadcasts.
To lockout an ID,
press Owhen the ID
displays.
The ID is locked out,
and the next active ID
displays. You can
lockout up to 100 IDs.
Note: If you lockout an ID in Search mode, it is also
locked out in Scan List mode. Conversely, if you
lockout an ID while in Scan List mode, it is locked
out in Search mode. For information about Scan
Lists see page 46.
