Using Dupe To Speed Up Object Entry - Grecom PSR-410 Owner's Manual

Also with regard to trunked radio systems, it is important to note that a
talkgroup object may be configured in one of four different ways to monitor
traffic on a trunked radio system. They are as follows:
• Wildcard Talkgroup: will monitor all talkgroup call radio traffic on the
desired trunked radio system (press Dflt in the ID: field of the TGRP
object to use Wildcard)
• Talkgroup with TGID: will only monitor talkgroup call radio traffic on the
specified TGID (enter the desired talkgroup in the ID: field of the TGRP
object to scan a specified ID)
• Wildcard Private Call: will monitor all private call radio traffic on the
desired trunked radio system (press Dflt in the TGID field to get
Wildcard, and set the Type field to Private )
• Private Call with ID: will only monitor private call radio traffic on the
specified TGID (enter the desired Radio ID in the TGID field, and set the
Type field to Private )
NOTE: Remember, by default all new objects are mapped to Scan List 01.
For now, just let your new objects go to the default Scan List 01. Later in
this section we will show you how you can group your objects into Scan
Lists.

Using DUPE to speed up object entry

DUPE is a powerful feature that will help you when entering multiple objects
that have similar characteristics. DUPE is especially useful when entering
multiple TGRP objects that are hosted on the same trunked radio system,
or multiple CONV objects that have similar parameters or tag names. To
use DUPE, press the PROG key, then scroll to the object that you wish to
duplicate using the 3456 keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad. Press the
EDIT softkey, then press the DUPE softkey. An exact copy of the object
you selected is created, and the scanner displays the newly created object
menu so you can change the parameters that need to be changed prior
to saving. Be sure to change the tag name before saving your new object.
When finished, press the SAVE softkey to save the new object.
Try using the DUPE feature now to enter a few more CONV and TGRP
objects before continuing. You might consider using DUPE on your wildcard
TGRP object to make a duplicate, then set the Type to Private , so you'll
have a TGRP wildcard for talkgroup calls, and another for private calls.
