Then, select the system type:

MOT TYPE 1

— Motorola Type I systems

MOT TYPE 2

— Motorola Type II systems

EDCS WIDE/NARROW

— EDACS Wide and Narrow systems

EDCS SCAT

The scanner creates an empty system with a default name of System n x. Note
that “n” is a number that increments as you add new systems. The “x” on the right
side of the display is M for Motorola system, E for EDACS systems, and L for LTR
systems. After creating the system:

1.

Set the system-level settings in “Programming System Settings” that apply to
the type of system you selected.

2.

Set up at least one site for the system as described in “Programming Sites” on
Page 86.

3.

To scan specific channels, create one or more channel groups with channels
as described in “Programming Channel Groups.”

Programming System Settings

Throughout the following sections, you will notice a heading on the right, such as
MELCS in the next section. This helps designate the system types to which the
section applies. In this section, the instructions apply to M (Motorola), E (EDACS
Wide/Narrow), C (Conventional), L (LTR), and S (EDACS SCAT).

Each system name can be made of up to 16 characters. Abbreviate as necessary
to fit. For Motorola and EDACS Wide/Narrow systems, the system name only
appears in the scanner menu’s Program System listings. It is not shown during
scanning. For other systems, the system name alternates with the Channel group
when the scanner stops on a channel.

The default system names include the following letter in the 16th position to
indicate the system type:

M

= Motorola; E = EDACS; L = LTR; C = Conventional
