9、Introduction Scanning technology has changed dramatically over the years. A scanner with Object Oriented User Interface is designed to help the hobbyist build a collection of objects to scan: Start small and expand Organize conventional frequencies and talkgroups Remove unwanted channels and talkgro
10、ups What is Object Oriented Scanning? Historically, programming scanning receivers was challenging, but object-oriented programming simplifies the process by using common conventions for scanning concepts. A Scannable Object is any defined item that can be scanned or monitored, including: Convention
11、al, non-trunked radio frequencies Talkgroups used on a trunked radio system Radio services Defined searches Because scannable objects are defined by the same basic elements, the Object Oriented User Interface (OOUI) is designed to simplify scanning by managing all scannable objects similarly. When y
12、ou learn how to program one type of object, you can program other types of scannable objects as well. 5 Features Functional keypad and backlit LCD display USA/Canada Radio Reference database on SD Card Quick Location based Programming (City, Zip, County) Detects and masks encrypted voice audio Decod

16、ning Legally Your scanner covers frequencies used by many different groups including police and fire departments, ambulance services, government agencies, private companies, amateur radio services, military operations, pager services, and wireline (telephone and telegraph) service providers. It is l
17、egal to listen to almost every transmission your scanner can receive. However, there are some transmissions you should never intentionally listen to. These include: Telephone conversations (cellular, cordless, or other means of private telephone signal transmission) Paging transmissions Any intentio
18、nally decoded scrambled or encrypted transmissions According to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), you are subject to fines and possible imprisonment for intentionally listening to, using, or divulging the contents of such a transmission unless you have the consent of a party to the c
19、ommunication (unless such activity is otherwise illegal). This scanner has been designed to prevent reception of illegal transmissions. This is done to comply with the legal requirement that scanners be manufactured so as to not be easily modifiable to pick up those transmissions. Do not open your s
20、canners case to make any modifications that could allow it to pick up transmissions that are illegal to monitor. Doing so could subject you to legal penalties. We encourage responsible, legal scanner use. In some areas, mobile use of this scanner is unlawful or requires a permit. Check the laws in y
21、our area. It is also illegal in many areas to interfere with the duties of public safety officials by traveling to the scene of an incident without authorization. Even where not permitted, mobile use of a scanner is typically permitted if you are a licensed Amateur Radio operator capable of emergenc
22、y radio communications. If interested, see www.arrl.org for information on becoming a ham radio operator. 7 FCC Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a scanning receiver, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
23、protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
24、 interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measur
25、es: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the follow
26、ing two conditions: (1)This device may not cause harmful interference. (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
27、 void the users authority to operate the equipment. Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with the Class B FCC limits. 8 Setup Antenna To connect the included antenna: 1. Align the slots around the antennas connector with the tabs on the antenna jack. 2. Press the antenna
28、down over the jack and turn the antennas base clockwise until it locks into place. 3. Mobile use requires an external antenna. To connect an external antenna, follow the installation instructions supplied with the antenna. Always use 50-ohm coaxial cable, such as RG-58 or RG-8 low-loss dielectric co
29、axial cable. You may also need a BNC adapter. WARNING: Use extreme caution when installing or removing an outdoor antenna. If the antenna starts to fall, let it go! It could contact overhead power lines. If the antenna touches a power line, touching the antenna, mast, cable, or guy wires can cause e
30、lectrocution and death. Call the power company to remove the antenna. DO NOT attempt to do so yourself. 9 WARNING: Outdoor antennas must be properly grounded to prevent static buildup and lightning damage. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information about proper g
31、rounding of the antenna mast, connection of coaxial cable to an lightning arrestor, size of grounding conductors, location of the lightning arrestor and connection of grounding conductors to grounding electrodes. Disconnect your radio from the outdoor antenna during electrical storm activity to prev
32、ent damage. Connecting Earphone, Headphones or Speakers For private listening, you can plug an 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) mini-plug earphone or headphones (not supplied) in the headphone jack on the front. This automatically disconnects the internal speaker. Connecting Extension Speaker In noisy areas, or if
33、 you install the scanner in a vehicle, an extension speaker (not supplied) may provide more comfortable listening. Plug the speaker cable 1/8 inch (3.5mm) mini-plug into your scanners EXT. SP jack, located on the rear panel of the radio. Listening Safely To protect your hearing, follow these guideli
34、nes when you use headphones: Do not connect headphones to the external speaker jack located on the rear panel of the radio. Set the volume to zero before putting on headphones. With the headphones on, adjust the volume to a comfortable level. Avoid increasing the volume once you set it. Over time, y
35、our sensitivity to a volume level decreases, so volume levels that do not cause discomfort might damage your hearing. Avoid or limit listening at high volume levels. Prolonged exposure to high volume levels can cause permanent hearing loss. 10 Traffic Safety Wearing headphones while operating a motor vehicle c
