PLAN 2: If the last three digits of frequencies are less than
869.0000 and end in one of the following three digits (125,
375, 625, or 875) and if ANY other frequencies end in (000,
250, 500, or 750) use Plan 2.
PLAN 3: If the last three digits of ALL the frequencies in
use end in one of the following three digits (000, 250, 500,
or 750) use Plan 3.
PLAN 4: If the last three digits of frequencies are less than
866.0000 and end in one of the following three digits (000,
250, 500, or 750) and if ANY other frequencies end in (125,
375, 625, or 875) use Plan 4.
Of course you will know the Control Channel frequency itself
so that will help you determine the proper plan. If you try one
plan and you receive errors (such as the scanner jumping to
channels that are obviously not part of the system), you
should try an alternate Plan.
Note: In Chain Search mode, Control Channel Trunk is
activated in the Menu mode (See page 18). You must
choose one of 4 frequency plans. This plan applies
only when the scanner searches the 800 MHz range.
Since a default plan is automatically used when the
scanner searches the 900 MHz range, a user does
not need to select a plan.
Note: You can assign a Fleet Map to TYPE 1 or Hybrid
systems scanned in Control Channel Only mode by
going into the Menu. You can also program IDs, set a
delay, alpha tags and all the other parameters for
systems scanned in this mode. You can then either
search the system to find new IDs or you can
program IDs into memory and then scan them.
Note: The Control Channel Only feature is an extremely
powerful tool. You can use it to determine if systems
you are familiar with may have added new
frequencies or you can use it to discover new
systems by simply finding active control channels
(using Search) and then programming them for
Control Channel operation only.
Remember that this feature only applies to Motorola
800 and 900 MHz systems, that you do have to set
the Menu for the proper system type (800 MHz of
Type 1 or Type 2 or 900 MHz) and you do have to
program the Control Channel frequency into Memory.
