Channel Activity Indicators

The BC780XLT has 30 Channel Activity Indicators to visually display a trunked systems
activity. You'll always know which frequencies are in use and how much communication traffic
is occurring.
Each frequency you program in a trunking bank corresponds to an activity indicator at the
top of your scanners display. The way in which the Activity Indicators display provide you with
information about the system you're tracking.
• The indicator which remains on, even if when there is
no traffic, represents the frequency being used as the
data channel.
• If an indicator turns on and you don't hear a
conversation, then the channel may be used as a
telephone interconnect call (some systems) or a
talkgroup that has been locked out.
• The indicator which flashes when an ID displays
represents the frequency being used by the talkgroup.
• If you're holding on an ID which isn't active, the
activity indicators will turn on and off as other groups
use the system.
