9 PREP AR A TION CONNECTING THE FLEX IBLE ANTENNA 1. Hold t he antenna so i t st ands str aight up. 2. Slip t he sl ot s in t he antenna’ s conne ct or ove r th e tabs on the ANT ja ck on to p of the scanne r . 3. Press down and t urn the ant enna’s bas e clockwise unt il i t locks i nto place.
10 Foll ow the se steps to inst al l or repl ace bat teries. 1. If t he scanner is on, turn VOL UM E OF F/MA X ful l y count er - cl ock wis e u n til i t cl ic ks to tur n it o ff. 2. While pressing and ho lding down the b attery c ompartment cover on the bott om of the sca nner , slide t he c over i n the dir ection of the arrow t o remove it .
11 • Never m ix rec hargeabl e and non-re chargeable b atterie s, or rechar geab le batteri es of dif ferent capaci t i e s. 5. Insert six batteri es in t he batter y holder as indi cated by t he polari ty sym bols (+ and – ) marked on th e battery hol der and insi de the bat tery compart m ent .
12 Important I nformation About t he PWR and CHG Jack s There a re two ex ternal jacks on the lef t side o f the scanne r — PW R and CHG . It is importa nt that you unders tan d the pur pose of each jack befor e you con nect any adapt er to the sc anner .
13 Warni ng: Do not co nnect ei ther adapt er to th e scanner’s CHG ja ck if you instal led non- rechar geable bat teri es (standa rd, extr a-li fe, or alkal ine). Non -recha r gea ble bat teries beco me hot a nd can e x - plode if you tr y to rechar ge t hem.
14 3. Afte r 2 seconds, r elease BAND/ • a nd 0 . USING THE BEL T CLIP You can use the b elt cl ip at tached to t he back of the scan ner for hands- free carr ying when you ar e on the go. Simpl y sl i d e the belt cli p over y our belt o r wai st band.
15 UNDERST ANDING YOUR S CANNER A LOOK A T THE KEYP A D A quick l o ok at t he scanner’ s ke ys wil l hel p you underst and the scanner ’s funct ions. Number Keys — ea ch k ey has a single di git on i t and a range of numbers p rinted a bove it.
16 WX — scans thr ough t he 10 prep r ogram m ed weat her ch annel s. LIGHT — a quick press turn s on t he di s pl ay’s backli ght f or 5 sec- onds, or turns off th e backli ght if it is on.
17 M.SCAN — app ear s wit h nu m be rs ( 0-9) t o show which cha nnel- storag e banks ar e turned on for s canning. A b ar under th e num ber shows tha t the cha nnel -stor age bank i s se lected . See “Band s and Banks” on Page 18. BA T T — fl ashe s when the batteri es ar e low.
18 BANDS AN D BANKS SEARCH BANDS Your s canner can t une over 24 ,000 diff erent frequenci es. Each of these frequenci es is c ontained wi thin a group of frequen ci e s call ed a band. The sca nner use s permanen t me mory lo cations call ed search bands (0-9) to group these ban ds.
19 Notes: • The fr equencies i n the s canner’s sear ch bands are pr eset. Y ou ca nnot c hange them . • “Band Al l ocat ion” on Page 42 lists freque ncy ranges and t he broadcas ters you are likel y to hear on th ose f requ encies.
20 BASIC OPERA TION TURNING ON THE SCANNER AND SETTING SQUELCH No te: Make sure the scan ner ’s antenn a is connect ed before you turn it o n. 1. T urn SQUELCH M IN/MAX fully counterc lockwi se. 2. T urn VOL UM E OF F/MA X clock wise until it clicks a nd you hear a hissi ng so und.
21 Notes: • If t he scanner pi cks up unwant ed, part ial, o r very weak trans- missions, turn SQUELCH MIN/MAX clock wise to decrease the scanner’ s sen sitivity to th ese signal s. I f you want t o lis t en t o a weak or di st a nt stat ion, turn SQUELCH MIN/MAX coun ter- clockwi se.
22 Limi t Se ar c h If you do not know a frequ ency to store , y ou c an sele ct a searc h band cont aining a prep rogram med frequ ency range and searc h that r a nge f or a cti ve frequenci es. Then you ca n store fr equencies you fi nd there into cha nnels.
23 When the scann er stops on an act ive fr equency, pres s EN TER to store it i n the f lashi ng channel or press an d hold or for abo ut a second to cont inue the searc h. Notes: • T o search the fre quency band upward or downwar d step by step (5, 12.
24 Hint: I f you ar e storin g a f requency use d by a spec i fi c broad- cast er (such as a raci ng team) , you can remembe r where you stor ed the frequ ency by stori ng it in t h e same channel numb er as t he team’ s car numbe r .
25 • If yo u tried t o s tore a f r equency i n a locked channel , the scanner beeps onc e and L (ne xt to the channel numbe r) and LOC flash on the displ ay , then the freque ncy flash es.
26 Notes: • Y ou can manually s el e ct any chan nel in a ban k, even if t he bank is turned of f. • Y ou cannot turn off al l banks. There must be at le ast one acti ve bank. • Y ou cannot turn on a bank where all the channels in the bank are ski pped ( see “Ski pping Channel s” on Page 28).
27 Follo w t hese st eps to m anually select a channel . 1. Press MANUAL . MAN app ear s o n the di splay . 2. Enter th e channe l number . 3. Press MANUAL . 4. T o select a nother channel wi t h in t he b ank, r epeatedly press to selec t hi gher ch annel s or to sel ect lower chann el s.
28 ADV ANCED OPE RA TION DELA Y Many agenci es use a tw o-way r adio syste m that m ight have a pause of sever al secon ds between a query and a re pl y. Your scanne r’s delay f eat ure lets it wai t f or 2 seconds af ter each tr ans- missi on on a channel or fre quenc y w hil e sca nning or searchi ng.
29 To remove t he skip fro m a channe l , manual ly sel ect t he cha nnel, then p ress SKIP . SKIP di sappear s from the display. Notes: • The scanner automat ical l y s ki ps empty ch annels. • Y ou ca nnot r emove t he skip from an empt y chan nel.
30 USING CHANNEL LOCK When y ou enter a f requency into a cha nnel , the sc anner aut omat- ical l y locks t he channel t o pr event it from b eing ov erwr itt en by an- other frequenc y. L a ppear s t o the lef t of the ch annel number. To unloc k a channel, pre ss LO C K .
31 USING THE A TTENUA TOR To redu ce i nter ferenc e or no is e caused by st rong s ignals , you can reduce t he scanner’s se nsitivi ty to th ese signal s. Press AT T until AT T appear s on the disp l ay to red uce the scanne r’ s sens itivit y. Note : If you turn on this f eature, the sc anner might not recei ve weak signal s.
32 3. Afte r a secon d, re lease 2 and ENTER . USING THE KEYLOCK Onc e you p rogram you r sc anner, you can pr otec t it fro m a cci den- tal progr am changes by turni ng on the keylock f eature. When the keypad is locked, the only cont rols t hat o perate ar e LIG HT , VOL - UME O FF/MAX , a nd SQUELCH MIN/MAX .
33 OPTI ONS CONNECTING OPTIONA L POWER SOURCES Using AC Power To opera te the sc anner fro m AC power, you ne ed an AC a dapter such as Radio Shack Cat. No. 273-1665. Cautions : • T o prevent el ectr i c shock , the plug’ s blades are pola r ized and fi t only one way .
34 No te: If yo u inst alled rec hargeable n i c kel-ca dmiu m batt erie s in the s canner, you can connect t he AC adapter to the CHG jack. Simpl y rem ove the rub ber cap from the CHG jack , conne ct the AC adapt er’s barrel pl ug t o the jac k , then pl ug t he adapt er’s power modu l e int o a standard AC outlet.
35 Notes: • If you i nstall ed recha rgeable nick el-ca dmium bat teri es in the scanner , you ca n connect th e DC cigarette l ighter adapter to th e CHG jack.
36 When de cidin g on a mobile or base-st at ion antenn a and its loca- ti on, consi der the followi ng: • Th e anten na should be mounted as hi gh as possibl e. • Th e ante nna and antenna cabl e should be as f ar as possi ble fro m sour ces of el ectrica l noi se (appli ances, i gnition sys- tems, gauges, and so on) .
37 Warni ng: Us e extreme ca ution whe n you instal l or remov e an out- door antenn a. If the antenna st arts to fa ll, let it go! It c ould conta ct overhead power line s. If the antenna touc hes a power li ne, co ntact with the antenna, mast , cable, or guy wi res can cause el ectrocu- tion and deat h.
38 • Do not l isten at extr emel y hig h volume level s. Ext ended high- volume l i stening can lead to p erman ent hea ring lo ss. • Onc e you set t he volume, do not i ncrease it. Over t ime, your ears adapt to th e volume l evel, so a volum e leve l t hat doe s not cause d iscomfo r t mi ght s till damage your hearing.
