2. Press FUNC then 1 to toggle the sub-bank on or off. The on/off state of the sub-bank

Open and Closed Mode Operation
You can set your scanner to change the way it receives transmissions on Motorola,
APCO-25 and EDACS trunked radio systems. These settings, called Open Mode and
Closed Mode, control whether the scanner monitors all traffic from a trunked radio
system, or only traffic from talkgroups you specify. Unlike the channel mode settings
described above, Open/Close mode settings apply to a trunking system programmed
into a single bank.
Notes
• In Open Mode, you hear all active talkgroups except those you specifically exclude,
making it easy to hear everything going on. In Closed Mode, you hear only those
talkgroups you specify. This makes it easy to listen only to talkgroups you are
interested in and exclude others.
Each scanner bank can be programmed with one trunked system. You can set each of
the scanner’s channel storage banks to Open or Closed Mode.
Conventional modes (AM, FM/Digital, CT and DC) are not affected by the Open/Closed
Mode setting of a bank.
