Initializing Global Parameters to Factory Defaults
If your scanner does not appear to be functioning properly, you can reset the global radio parameters to
their factory state without losing any of your programmed data. Any custom changes you have made to the
radio's global parameters will be lost.
NOTE: This procedure preserves the information you stored in the scanner's working memory, while
resetting all global radio parameters to factory defaults. V-Scanner memory is not affected by this
operation.
