Programming Channels For Ctcss And Dcs Operation - GRE PSR-295 Owner's Manual

• Press FUNC, then press /\ or \/. The bank number
moves in the direction of the arrow pressed.
• Press FUNC. Then hold down /\ or \/. The bank num-
ber moves continuously in the assigned direction.
• Press /\. The channel number moves upward one by
one. Or, press \/. The channel number moves down-
ward one by one.
2. Press PGM. MAN changes to PGM.
3. Use the number keys and •/DELAY to enter the fre-
quency (including the decimal point) you want to store.
If you make a mistake, press CL to delete a single
digit or press and hold CL about 2 seconds to delete
all digits.
4. Press ENTER to store the frequency into the channel.
Notes:
• If you made a mistake in Step 3, Invalid Freq. briefly
appears and the scanner beeps when you press EN-
TER. Start again from Step 3.
• Your scanner automatically rounds the entered fre-
quency to the nearest valid frequency. For example, if
you enter a frequency of 151.553, your scanner ac-
cepts it as 151.550.
• After a transmission, to have the scanner pause for 2
seconds on this channel before proceeding to the next
active transmission, press •/DELAY to turn the delay
function on. See "Using the Delay Function" on Page
29. The scanner stores this setting in the channel.
5. If necessary, press MODE to change the receiving
mode.
6. If desired, program a text tag for the channel (see "As-
signing a Text Tag to a Channel" on Page 18).
7. The next channel in sequence is ready for program-
ming. Press PGM and then repeat steps 3 through 6.
Programming Channels for CTCSS and
DCS Operation
CTCSS and DCS allow you to program frequencies into
your scanner that are used by more than one group in
your area and listen only to the group that is of interest to
you by specifying the group's specific CTCSS or DCS
code. CTCSS and DCS can also help reduce instances
where interfering signals cause your scanner to stop on
one channel.
