4.Using Preloaded Systems

Your scanner is factory preloaded with systems by state. The systems contain frequency groups for emergency services, see notes below. If you are fortunate enough to live in an area where one of these systems can be received, then you might have something to listen to right out of the box.

Note!

Preloaded systems are not intended as final programming: You'll need to set the scanner up to suit what you really want to listen to. This is just intended to show that the scanner really works and gives you something to monitor while you get your own programming taken care of.

Note!

System information changes all the time. The preloaded systems were accurately programmed several months prior to first production. It is possible that a system preloaded in the scanner is no longer operational with the preloaded settings.
