Uniden BC250D Scanner User Manual


 
You can hold any I-Call IDs. Because you can only hold on
one ID, and there are two IDs involved in any I-Call
communication (the transmitting and the receiving units), you
might not hear the full conversation, but you probably will.
In Search mode, when you hear an interesting I-Call,
you can enter the instant shortcut (decimal key)
then RSM to enter I-Call Only mode. This blocks all
talkgroup traffic and lets you hear just the I-Call.
To return to normal reception, you must use the Menu
system to select the ON or OFF option.
Note: When storing I-Call IDs, remember that the ID will be
for only one of the units either the transmitting or
receiving unit. Unless you specifically want to receive a
certain ID, it might be better to use the special code in
the HINT below.
I-CALLS IN SCAN AND HOLD MODE
You can store I-Call IDs in Scan Lists, just like talkgroup IDs,
for use by ID Scan and Scan Hold modes. To program a
specific I-Call Unit ID into a Scan Lists:
EDACS or Motorola Type 1
Press (decimal key) followed by the Unit ID digits,
then E.
Motorola Type 2
Press 7 followed by the Unit ID digits, then E.
HINT - There is a special code to let you receive all I-Call
IDs with a single Scan Lists entry. Simply press
(decimal key), 0, E. This will store the special code
i0 in an EDACS Scan Lists, or 700000 in a
Motorola Scan Lists or Digital. Then, whenever you
Scan this entry, or select it in Hold mode, the scanner
will receive any active I-Calls, regardless of the Unit
IDs.
Note: Motorola I-CALL tracking performance may vary
between systems.
Multi-Track
The BC250D allows you to track more than one system at a
time. Here are some highlights of this feature:
You can actually track up to 10 trunking systems at
one time.
You can trunk, scan, or search and scan conventional
frequencies at the same time.
You can program conventional frequencies in the same
bank as trunking systems.
