Next, rotate the scroll control to select the type of Motorola system you want to program, then briefly press the scroll control to select it.

P25 - Use for Motorola Astro APCO 25 Digital systems in any band

800MHz Standard - Use for 800 MHz systems that use the standard band plan

800MHz Splinter - Use for 800 MHz systems that use the splinter band plan (typically near international borders)

Note: Splinter systems have frequencies below 866 MHz that end in 0. For example, 851.0250 would be the frequency of a splinter system.

900MHz Band - Use for 900 MHz systems

VHF band - Use for VHF systems

UHF band - Use for UHF systems

Confirm? Yes=”E” / No=”.”

Note: The scanner creates an empty MOT system,

with a default name of "System n M." "n" is a number that increments as you add new systems, "M" indicates that this is a MOT system.

Next, refer to the appropriate section to set systemwide options. For most settings, you can accept the default. However, for the items in bold, you must enter information in order for your scanner to scan the system.
