Preprogrammed System Tips - Uniden BCD396T Owner's Manual

Notes:
• If no systems are programmed, or all systems are
locked out, an error message appears. Program a
system or select a system to scan.
• When scanning multiple systems, the BCD396T
scans systems according to the assigned quick
key. Systems assigned to quick key 1 are scanned
first, then 2, 3, 4, etc. Systems not assigned to a
quick key are scanned last. Within a quick key,
systems are scanned in the order they were
assigned.
• Within a system, channels are scanned according
to the assigned channel group, with the same
priority as described above for systems.
• The BCD396T scans a system for the duration
you set using the System Hold Time option (see
"Setting the System Hold Time" on Page 74). For
trunked systems, the scanner moves to the next
system after the hold time expires, the current
transmission ends, and the channel delay expires.
Conventional systems operate similarly, but all
unlocked channels are scanned at least one time
regardless of the hold time setting.

Preprogrammed System Tips

All systems preprogrammed into the scanner are
assigned to quick key 9. To turn the preprogrammed
systems on or off, simply press 9 while scanning.
Notes:
• The systems preprogrammed into the scanner are
located primarily in major metropolitan areas. You
might not be able to receive one or more of these
preprogrammed systems.
• You might hear transmissions on frequencies
assigned to very distant stations. This will happen
if a local system also uses the same frequency.
