SPECIAL FEATURES
USING MEMOLOCK
To keep from accidentally changing
the scanner’s programming, you can
lock the scanner’s memory by setting
the
MEMOLOCK OFF/ON
switch on the
back of the scanner to
ON
. If you try to
change the scanner’s programming,
Prg-Loc
appears, and the program-
ming does not change.
Set
MEMOLOCK OFF/ON
to
OFF
to add
or change information in the scanner’s
channels.
DELAY
Many agencies use a two-way radio
system that might have a pause of
several seconds between a query and
a reply.
When the scanner tunes to an active
frequency or channel, the scanner
automatically waits for 2 seconds after
the completion of each transmission
on that frequency or channel before it
resumes searching or scanning.
LOCKING OUT
CHANNELS AND
FREQUENCIES
You can scan banks faster by locking
out frequencies or channels that have
a continuous transmission or static.
However, you cannot lock out any
weather frequencies or any frequen-
cies within the AIR or MRN service
search banks.
To lock out a frequency or channel
while scanning, press
L/O
when the
scanner displays the frequency or
channel number.
To remove the lockout, manually se-
lect the frequency or channel, then
press
L/O
when the frequency or
channel number appears.

pears.
Notes:
• The scanner automatically locks
out empty channels.
You can lock out all frequencies
and channels in a bank. However,
if all frequencies and channels
within a bank are locked out, the
scanner beeps three times when
you press that bank key and does
not scan the bank.
• You can manually select locked
out channels.
