Talk Group IDs
There are 10 talk group ID banks and each ID bank has 5 sub-banks. Each
sub-bank has 30 ID locations. You can program up to 150 talk group IDs in
each bank, so you can program up to 1,500 talk group IDs in 10 banks. When
the scanner stops on a transmission in the Motorola, EDACS, or LTR mode, it
checks to see if the ID has been stored. In the closed mode, the scanner only
stops on the transmission and displays its text tag if you have stored and not
locked out the ID. In the open mode, the scanner always stops on a transmis-
sion, but it displays the ID's text tag if you have stored the ID.
Storing Talk Group IDs
To store a talk group ID, press TRUNK when the scanner stops on a voice
channel transmission or when a talk group ID is indicated in the manual mode.
The bottom line indicates where the ID was stored (as ID save X-XX), then it
changes to ID#XXXX. The first X in ID save X-XX is the sub-bank number (0-4)
in the bank. XX is the number of IDs from (00-29) in each sub-bank.
If the ID has already been stored when you press TRUNK, ID was saved ap-
pears.
