If you make an error in the entry process, press CL as often as needed to erase the incorrect data.
Programming Motorola Trunking Systems (UHF-Lo)
You can program the scanner to receive transmissions in the UHF-Lo band (406-512 MHz) of the
Motorola trunking system. You can receive these transmissions by checking the trunking system’s
control channel. You must program the system’s base frequency and offset frequency to do this.
Note: Base and offset frequencies vary for each type of trunking system. You can get information about
these frequencies for the trunking system you want to scan using www.trunkscanner.com, other Internet
sources, or locally published guidebooks.
If you try to program an offset frequency in the UHF-Hi bands (806-960 MHz), the scanner ignores the
entry.
Follow these steps to program Motorola trunking frequencies in the UHF-Lo band:
1. Press PGM then TRUNK to enter the ID program mode.
2. Press FUNC and press (or hold) ^ or v to select the bank.
3. Press MODE and select MOT.
4. Press FUNC then 2. The display indicates Custom Range 1/3 on first line, Base Freq.: on the second
line, 406.0000 on the second line, OFFset: 380 on the third line and Step:25.0kHz on the bottom line.
5. While B in Base blinks, if necessary, press the desired Base frequency with the number keys and press
ENTER. Confirm the entry. If it is incorrect, press the number keys again to set the base frequency. After
you confirm the input, press ENTER again.
6. While O in OFFset blinks, if necessary, enter the offset number and press ENTER. Confirm the entry. If
it is incorrect, then press the number keys again to set the frequency. After you confirm the input, press
ENTER again.
7. While S in Step blinks, repeatedly press ^ or v to select the step number, 5.0, 6.25, 10.0, 12.5, 15.0,
18.75, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 31.25, 35.0, 37.5, 40.0, 43.75, or 50.0 kHz, then press ENTER.
8. Press PGM to enter the program mode. Store the trunking IDs into the sub-bank in the same bank.
