10 Introduction Intr oduction Y our BCD396T sc anner is a state-of -t he-art scanner radio with T runkT racker IV™ and automatic scann ing capabilit ies. Y o u can s tore f requencie s such as pol ice, fire/ emergenc y , marine, air , amateur , and other communi- cations i n to th e scanner .
11 Feature Highlights Feature Highlight s General Cl os e Ca l l TM RF Captu re T ech nology - Y ou can set the scanner so it detect s and prov ides inform ation about nearby radi o transm issions. See “Us ing the C lose Call Feature” on Page 103 for more inform ation.
12 Feature Highlights An al og a nd D igi t al A u dio A GC – Helps aut omatically balance the volume level between different radio syste m s. Fire T o ne-O ut Standb y – Lets you set the s canner to alert you if a t w o-tone sequential page is transmitted.
13 Feature Highlights Automatic Channel Step – Ac c epts frequenc ies on any valid channel step, even if it does not fall within the ba nd plan’s defaul t step. Frequ ency Step – Lets you select a frequency step (5, 6.25, 7.5, 8.33, 10, 12.5,15, 20, 25, 50 or 100 kHz) for manual mode and chain searc h mod e.
14 Feature Highlights Co nt r o l C ha n ne l O n ly S ca n n in g – If the scanner is set t o scan Mo torola trunking frequencies, you can s et it so it s c an s using only control channel data. Y ou do no t h av e to program voice channel f requencies int o memor y in this mode as long as all pos sible contro l chan nels are pr ogrammed.
15 Feature Highlights T alk Grou p ID Au toStore – Automaticall y stores al l new ta lk group ID ’ s into a chan nel group you select. Pr iori ty Prio ri ty Sca n – Priority channel s l et you keep track of activity on your most im port ant channel(s) whi le moni toring other channels for t ransmissions.
16 Feature Highlights On-Air Cl oning – Y ou can clone all programmed da ta ove r the air f rom a PC to one or more B CD396T scann ers. Abou t This Manu al The screen d isplays use d in this manual are repres entations of what might appear when you use you r scanner .

19 Understanding Scanning U nder stand ing S c anni ng This sec tion provides you with background on how scann ing works. Y ou don’t really n eed to know all of this to use your scann er , b ut som e background kno wledge will help you get the m ost from your BCD3 96T .
20 Understanding Scanning find s an active frequency , then stops on that frequency and remains on that channel as long a s the transm iss ion continues. When the transmi ssion ends , the scanning cycle resume s until the scanner receives anot her transm iss ion.
21 Understanding Scanning units wh ich transmit t he correct t one alo ng with t heir signal can “talk” to the repeater . C TCSS and DCS are a lso used i n areas t hat receive interference where there are s everal stations w it h outp ut frequenc ies close to each other .
22 Understanding Scanning Conv enti onal Scan ning Conventional scann in g is a relati vely si mple concept. Each group of users in a conventional syste m is assign ed a singl e freq uency (f or s i m pl e x syst em s) or two f req uen ci e s (fo r repea ter syst e ms).
23 Understanding Scanning Simplex Operation Simplex systems us e a single frequency for both transmit and receive. Mos t radios using this type of operation are limited to line-of-sight operation. This type of radio is f requent ly used at construct ion job sites, and with inexpensive consum er radios such as GMRS/F RS radios.
24 Understanding Scanning W hen tracking these types of systems, you migh t want to remember t hat your scanner can track m ore than one trunking sy stem at a time and scan conv entional and trunked s ystem s at the same time. Conventional scannin g is a simple concept.
25 Understanding Scanning each grou p operates on...and this frequency sel ection is mad e each time a user transm it s. So, whi le on a conventional system queries, replies, and follow-ups are all on a si ngle frequenc y , t he y could each be on completely d iff erent freq uencies on a trunked system .
26 Understanding Scanning The c omputer t he n assign s that talk group to a specific voic e channel and transm its that data over the c ontrol cha nnel. All radios in that tal k group switch over to the assi gned voice chann el and the user can begin spe ak- ing.
27 Understanding Scanning EDACS Trunking EDAC S trunking works in much the same way as Motorola trunking with a couple of m ajor differences. In an EDACS system, each frequency u s ed by th e system i s assigned a Logi c al Channel Number (LCN) so that less data needs t o be tr ansmitted by the control cha nnel.
28 Understanding Scanning system, your BCD396T let s you assign wi l dcard ID’ s that let you, for example, use only one ID memory to ident ify all units in either an agency or a fleet. EDAC S SCA T – EDACS SCA T (Single Channel Autonom ous Trunking) systems operate on a single cha nnel and alternate control data with analog voice traffic.
29 Understanding Scanning I-C all (Mot oro la/E DAC S) I-calls are di r e ct unit-to-unit transmi s sions that a r e not heard by other s ystem u s ers. Y o ur BCD396T can receive I-call transmissions . See “Setting I-Call (Motorola and ED ACS Systems Onl y )” on Page 79 for mor e i nf or mation ab out moni t oring I-cal l t ra nsmiss ions.
