10:EDACS ID FORM (EDCS)
You can change to display the talkgroups in decimal mode, but this mode does not
provide you with nearly the flexibility that you get with AFS. The UBC780XLT
defaults to show the talkgroup number in AFS mode (Agency-Fleet-Subfleet). For
details on AFS see pages 46.
11:END CODE (MOTOROLA)
When this function is disabled, the radio looks for squelch before returning to the
control channel instead of waiting for the disconnect tone. Only in rare instances
will you need to adjust the default settings.
The condition to return to control channels depends on whether signal is present or not.
12:CONTROL CH ONLY (MOTOROLA 800 & 900 SYSTEMS)
With this mode you will be able to track Motorola Type I and II 800 and 900 MHz
trunked systems by simply entering the control channel which manages the trunked
system. You will not have to program the voice channels. There are 4 channel
plans which you can select from.
4:SEARCH EVENT
You can program up to 10 search ranges (one per bank). The first time you
program a range for a bank you will need to do so through the Menu. After the first
time you can program a range as you do on most any other scanner, using the
numeric keypad and the /HOLD or /LIMIT keys.
1:SEARCH BANK
Use this Menu item to select the search bank that you want to program. You can
program banks 1 through 10, one at a time. For each of the banks, the following
options can be modified.

2:STEPS
You can assign a variety of step sizes to the search range. Note: The
default step is usually acceptable and is listed in the front of the manual.
