Optimizing P25 Performance; Locking/Unlocking Systems/Sites/Searches - Uniden BCD96P2 Owner's Manual

To Go to a System or Custom/Service Search Hold on any system/search.
Enter the system/search number tag, press .No, and press MENU.
Press HOLD to resume.
Notes: Selecting just a system will hold on the first frequency in the system (not ID).
If two systems/searches have the same number tag, they will be selected in sequence (the
first time you select the number tag, the scanner will go to the first system/search assigned
to that number tag; if you select the same number tag again, it will go to the 2nd system/
search assigned to that number tag, and so on). The same rule applies to channel number
tags (so don't start at 1 for each channel group in the system).

OPTIMIZING P25 PERFORMANCE

Press then VOL. The next to last line on the display now shows the digital error rate and the
AUTO decode threshold setting (0-20).
The last line on the display shows the decode threshold levels for the site.
Allow the scanner to monitor channel activity for several minutes. The error rate should drop for
each transmission and the threshold levels should automatically adjust to a more optimal setting.
This is the site's optimum decode threshold. Press then VOL to exit.
See the following settings to make adjustments P25 Waiting Time, P25 LP Filter, P25 Adjust
Mode, and P25 Adjust Level.

LOCKING/UNLOCKING SYSTEMS/SITES/SEARCHES

With the advent of Multi-site trunking, you can no longer lockout a trunking system. You have to
lockout the site assigned to the system. You can still lockout conventional systems and searches
the same way. Also, with the ability now to assign quick keys the searches you can turn them off
and on or lockout/unlock them just like conventional systems and trunked sites.
Remember, unlocking or locking out a system/site/search is not the same thing as enabling/
disabling it (turning the quick key on or off).
To Lock out a Conventional System/Trunked Site/Search in Scan Mode hold on any channel/
frequency in the system/site/search, press then L/O to toggle 'Unlocked', 'Temporary L/O', or
'Lockout'. Press HOLD to resume.
Note: 'Temporary Lockout' means unlocked the next time you cycle power the site/system/
search will be unlocked.
Or, use Menu to drill down to the system/site/search options and lock it out there.
See 'Edit Conventional System Options', 'Edit Site Options', 'Edit Service Search', or 'Edit Custom
Search'.
