Beyond the Basics
programming trunked systems
If you are just getting started with trunked system monitoring
or have any questions about how your PRO-2096 scanner
operates when tracking trunked radio systems. For best
results, program only one trunking system in each channel
storage bank of your scanner. Your scanner will lock on to the
fi rst active control channel it fi nds in a channel storage bank
and follow the activity from that trunking system.
Motorola analog, digital, and
APCO-25 systems
1. Press PROG and FUNC then e or d to select the desired
channel storage bank to program.
2. Press TRUNK to access the ID list and set the correct
trunking bank type. If the bank has never been
programmed with a trunking system, the scanner will
display Not trunked! Press mode.
3. Press MODE until Motorola appears in the display. This sets
the channel storage bank for Motorola operation.
4. Press PROG to return to the channel storage bank.
5. Select a channel to begin programming trunking system
frequencies. Use direct channel entry or the e or d .
6. Enter the trunking frequency and press ENT. If necessary,
press MODE to change the receiving mode to MO
(Motorola).
7. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 to enter the other trunking system
control channel frequencies for the system you wish to
monitor.
You can also press FUNC, TRUNK to access the ID list from
manual mode.
When monitoring Motorola trunked radio systems, it is
only necessary to program the trunking control channel.
