PRO-2035 1000-Channel Programmable Home Scanner
(200-0460) Operation -Part 1 Faxback Doc. # 16910
CONNECTING POWER
Plug the scanner's attached AC power cord into a standard AC outlet.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, the plug's blades are polarized and fit
only one way. If the plug does not fit easily, turn it over and
try again. Do not force the plug into the AC outlet.
The memory backup circuit begins to function a few minutes after you supply
power to the scanner. The length of time that the scanner maintains
channels stored in memory depends on how long power has been supplied to
the scanner. For example, if power is supplied to the scanner for at least
4 days, the memory backup circuit maintains the channels stored in memory
for up to 3 months.
Using Your Vehicle's Battery
If your AC power does not work in an emergency, you can power your scanner
from your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket with an optional DC cigarette
lighter power cable such as Cat. No. 270 -1533 (not supplied).
To connect an optional DC cigarette li ghter power cable, insert its barrel
plug into the DC 13.8V jack on the back of the scanner, then plug the power
cable into your vehicle's cigarette lighter socket.
CAUTIONS: The scanner can work in a vehicle that has a 12 -volt, negative-
ground electrical system. Most vehicles have this type of
system. If you are not sure about your vehicle, check with
your vehicle's dealer
If you use a DC cigarette lighter power cable with the scanner,
it must supply 12 volts and deliver at least 1 amp. Its center
tip must be set to positive, and its plug must correctly fit
the DC 13.8V jack on the back of the scanner. The recommended
power cable meets these specifications. U sing a power cable
that does not meet these specifications could seriously damage
the scanner or the power cable.
NOTE: Mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit in some
areas. Check the laws in your area.
RESTARTING/RESETTING THE SCANNER
If the scanner's display locks up or the scanner does not work properly
after you connect power, you might have to restart or reset the scanner.
Restarting the scanner clears and resets the scanner's display, but does
not erase any channel information stored in the scanner's memory. Follow
these steps to restart the scanner.
1. Turn off the scanner, then turn it on again.
2. Insert a pointed object such as a straightened paper clip into the
RESTART hole on the back of the scanner for about 2 seconds.
If the scanner still does not work properly, you might have to reset it.
CAUTION: This procedure clears all the information you have programmed
