Set Modulation this setting selects the modulation used for the site. The default setting is auto (NFM for FM frequencies). See also Band Defaults. 1. Scroll to 'Set Modulation' and press E/ . 2. Scroll to Auto, NFM, or FM and press E/ to save and exit. Note: You can also toggle modulation for a site in scan hold mode by pressing then 9(MOD). Set Attenuator this This setting controls whether the scanner attenuates signals on this site by about 20 dB. The default setting is off. 1. Scroll to 'Set Attenuator' and press E/ . 2. Scroll to On or Off and press E/ to save and exit. Note: You can also toggle attenuation for a site in scan hold mode by pressing then 7(ATT). Set Lockout determines whether a site will be scanned or not (even if the quick key for the site is turned on). 'Temporary L/O' means until you cycle power. The default setting is unlocked. 1. Scroll to 'Set Lockout' and press E/ . 2. Scroll to 'Unlocked', 'Temporary L/O', or 'Lockout' and press E/ to save and exit. Note: You can also toggle lockout by holding on the site and quickly pressing then L/O. Set Hold Time sets (in seconds) the amount of time the scanner will scan the site before moving on to the next site. If you select 0 for trunking sites, the scanner stays on the site for at least 1 second. The scanner moves to the next site after the hold time expires, any current transmission ends, and the channel delay time expires. The default setting is 0 seconds for each site. 1. Scroll to 'Set Hold Time' and press E/ . 2. Enter the hold time (0-255 seconds) you desire and press E/ to save and exit. Set Location Info allows you program a location for the site so the scanner will enable/disable it for scanning with a GPS unit attached. See Set GPS Format first to set your units, time zone, etc. 1. Scroll to 'Set Location Info' and press E/ . 2. At 'Set Latitude' press E/ . Enter the latitude and press E/ . 3. At 'Set Longitude' E/ . Enter the longitude and press E/ . 4. At 'Set Range' press E/ . 5. Enter the range (0.5 to 125 in 0.5 steps) and press E/ . 6. At 'Set GPS Enable' press E/ . 7. Scroll to On or Off and pressE/ . 8. Press MENU to return. P25 Waiting Time (Motorola only) this setting basically gives the scanner time to determine if channels on Motorola analog mixed systems (not P25 only) have digital or analog transmissions. During this time, the scanner will evaluate the received signal and, if it detects P25 data, will open squelch immediately. If P25 is not detected before the delay expires, the scanner will open squelch at the end of this delay. This is to prevent "false decode" problems (digital noise at the beginning of transmissions). The default setting is 400 ms. This setting only affects Motorola channels with an Audio Type set to 'All'. 1. Scroll to 'P25 Wait Time' and press E/ . 52
