Browsing Objects
The 5-way pushbutton pad makes it easy for you to browse the stored objects in your ADV0801
when in Manual or Program modes. Press MAN or PGM, then use the < > ^ v keys on the 5-way
pushbutton pad to move around in the scanner's memory as follows:
^: navigates "up" through the objects assigned to the current Scan List
v: navigates "down" through the objects assigned to the current Scan List
<: navigates "up" through the active Scan Lists in the radio
>: navigates "down" through the active Scan Lists in the radio
Advanced Startup Topics
Congratulations! Now that you have mastered the creation of Scannable Objects and how to
monitor them using Scan and Manual Mode, you can move on to some more advanced startup
topics.
This Advanced Startup Topics section of this manual will provide you with more basic
information about how you can create other types of Scannable Objects, and how you can group
your Scannable Objects into different Scan Lists and work with the Scan Lists to quickly enable
or disable groups of objects that you want to monitor. You can also read the Detailed Menu
Reference section of this manual to learn more about the different object types and their
parameters, and how to perform more advanced operations with your scanner.
About Object Numbering
Your ADV0801 is different from other types of scanners in how it stores your Scannable Objects
in memory. Instead of fixed channels and banks, objects are stored in the first available block of
free memory and assigned an Object ID. The Object ID is the "address" where the object is
stored in memory.
The Object ID is displayed as a four digit number in the upper left-hand corner of the display
whenever an object is selected in Manual Mode and PGM modes, and when the scanner stops on
an active object while scanning. Additionally, the current Scan List number is displayed prior to
the Object ID when an object is selected in Manual Mode or PGM mode, i.e.,
10-0348
indicates Object ID 0348 mapped to Scan List 10.
