Using V-Scanner Storage - Radio Shack PRO-651 User Manual

Using V-Scanner Storage

Your PRO-651 features two types of memory
storage: Main memory, which stores programming
for monitoring and scanning, and Virtual Scanner
(V-Scanner) memory.
V-Scanner folders (21) are each capable of storing
complete copies of your scanner's main memory
(including objects, global settings, and dedicated
search configurations). This is like having 21
scanners in one. You can customize multiple
main memory configurations, each for different
situations.
NOTE: If you load a V-scanner into main memory, the
current contents of main memory are overwritten
and cannot be recovered; there is no "Undo."
To save the current contents of your scanner's
main memory to a V-Scanner folder:
1. Press FUNC and then PGM.
2. Press the Stor softkey.
3. Use the 4-direction keypad to select a
V-Scanner folder.
4. Press the Stor softkey. If the selected
V-Scanner folder already contains data, you will
be asked if you wish to overwrite the existing
data with new data.
5. The scanner may prompt you for a name for
the V-Scanner. (The current name or Line 4 of
the Welcome Screen appears. If you change the
name here, it will not overwrite the Welcome
Screen text.)

To load a saved V-Scanner folder into main
memory:
1. Press FUNC and then PGM.
2. Press the Load softkey.
3. Use the 4-direction keypad to select a
V-Scanner folder.
4. Press the Load softkey. The scanner will ask you
to confirm that you wish to overwrite the current
contents of main memory.
NOTE: If you recall a configuration from a V-Scanner
storage folder and use it in main memory, any
changes you make while using the configuration will
not automatically be transferred to the configuration
data stored in the V-Scanner storage folder. You
must save your changes back to that folder location
if you want to preserve them for later use.
To erase a V-Scanner folder:
1. Press FUNC and then PGM
2. Press the Eras softkey.
3. Use the 4-direction keypad to select a
V-Scanner folder.
4. Press the Eras softkey. The scanner will ask you
to confirm that you wish to erase the selected
V-Scanner folder.
