Figure 19 - Group Data Frame – Frequencies – SC230, BC246T, BR330T, BCD396T

o # - Displays the absolute number from 1 to the maximum number of frequencies in the

Group. These numbers cannot be edited. The << Prev 15 and Next 15 >> buttons (see

below) are used to move among all the frequencies in the Group

o << Prev 15 (10) – Click to display the previous screen of frequencies in the Group.

o Next 15 (10) >> - Click to display the next screen of frequencies in the Group.

o Frequency – Data entry field for frequency for the selected Channel within the selected

Bank. Up to 8 digits of frequency information can be entered but the decimal point

MUST be entered for the desired frequency. e.g. typing 4 3 . 2 5 will result in the entry

of 043.2500 being displayed in the field. Typing 8 1 0 . 0 2 5 will result in the entry of

810.0250 being displayed in the field. If the decimal point is not entered the program

will not know how to parse the digits and therefore an error message will result. You will

then be given another opportunity to enter the frequency. NOTE: The frequency value

entered must be within the operational range of the connected scanner or an error will

occur during programming.

o Frequency Tag – Data entry field for the alphanumeric tag associated with the selected

frequency. This tag is stored in the ScanControl Memory Area and data file. The SC230,

BC246T, BR330T, BCD396T and BCD996T store the first 16 characters of this tag in the

radio.

o P, L, A, T, R – Checkboxes for control attributes for each selected frequency within the

selected Site / Group. P = Priority, L = Lockout, A = Attenuate, T = Tone Lock, R =

Record Out.

o Tone – Data display field for CTCSS or DCS Tone Code selection data for the selected

frequency. See your radio Owner’s Manual for details on the selections available and

what they mean. Clicking on this Tone box brings up the Tone/Mode/Step/LCN

selection screen. (See Below)
