Uniden UBC3300XLT manual 8I-CALLMOTOROLA/EDACS

7: ACTIVITY ID

When activity ID is set to ON, your scanner receives any transmissions on the ID every 0.5 seconds while scanning.

8:I-CALL(MOTOROLA/EDACS)

Most communications within a trunked system are group calls where one unit (such as a dispatcher) communicates with all the units within his/her group (all the patrol vehicles on the east side of town, for example). The units within this group comprise what is typically known as a talkgroup. There are some communications which are direct unit-to-unit conversations where one individual converses with another individual. The call is initiated by a radio and is directed to another single radio. Within the system, no one outside of these two users hears the conversation.

Your UBC3300XLT defaults to I-CALL OFF mode. You can hear these conversations by using this Menu item to turn the I-CALL function to ON. In Search mode, with I-CALL ON, you will hear both talkgroup calls and I- CALLs. You can also set I-CALLs to I-CALL ONLY during which you will monitor only I- CALLs in Search mode. You can also program I-CALL IDs into Scan List memory.

OR

8:ID SCAN LIST (LTR)

When scanning an LTR system you can only turn Scan Lists OFF and ON when an LTR talk group that you have entered into memory is active. To provide you with another method to turn Scan Lists ON and OFF, you can use this Menu item which only appears when you have selected LTR in trunk type.

9:EMERGENCY ALT (EDACS)

In EDACS trunked systems, you can set an alert for an EDACS transmission received. Set Emergency Alert to ON, EMERGENCY flashes on the display and you will hear beep alerts when you receive an EDACS emergency transmission.
