5 Features ˆ Features Your Rad ioShack Ha ndheld Sc anner is o ne of a new generati on of scanners des igned to track Motorol a ® Type I and Type II (such as Smartn et ® and Pri vacy Plus ® ) and .
6 Features 12-Characte r, 4-Line, Dot-Matr ix Display — show s you de tailed op erating information and l ets you eas ily progra m the scann er. Weath er Alert — au tomati cally soun ds the al arm.
7 Features Priority Channe l — you can set the scanner to chec k one ch annel every 2 second s so y ou do n ot miss impor- tant ca lls. Signal Attenuati on (Attenuate) — lets y ou program each m e.
8 Features • 380–512 MHz • 806–823 .9875 MHz • 849–868 .9875 MHz • 894–960 MHz This Owne r’s Manual al so incl udes the sect ion “A Gen- eral Guide to Sc anning” on Page 58 to help y ou target frequenc y ranges in your se rvi ce area so you can se arch for a wi de variet y of trans missions.
9 Preparation ten t o almost every tra nsmissi on your s canner can re- ceive. However , there are some electron ic and wi re commu nication s that are i llegal to intentiona lly i ntercept.
10 Preparation • If you instal l the rec hargeable battery h older , yo u can ope rate the sc anner and recharge th e recharge able ba tteries at the s ame ti me. See “Using Batteries” bel ow and “ Charging R echargeable Bat- teries” o n Page 12.
11 Preparation 3. Insert s ix AA batteri es in the battery hol der as ind i- cated by the polari ty symbols (+ and –) marked on the hold er. Cautions: • Use o nly fresh batteries of the re quired size an d recomm ended type. • Always remove old or weak batteries.
12 Preparation Caution: The batte ry holder fits only o ne way. Do not force it. 5. R epl ace t he c over . When ba ttery power is low , Low Battery! appea rs and the scanner beeps continuousl y. When b attery pow - er i s deple ted, the scanner turns itself off.
13 Preparation • Recharge able batteries l ast longe r and deliver mo re powe r if you le t them full y dischar ge once a mo nth. T o do this, use the scanner unti l Low Battery! appears. Then fully cha rge the recharg eable bat ter- ies. Important: .
14 Preparation 2. Plug the adapte r’s barrel plug into the scanner’ s PWR DC 9V jack. 3. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet. Using V ehicle Power You can p ower the sca nner from a veh i c le’s 12V po wer source (s uch as a ci garette-lig hter socke t) using a 9V, 300 mA DC adapter and a size H Adaptaplug (neither suppli ed).
15 Preparation 3. Plug the adapter’s cigare tte-lighter pl ug into yo ur vehicl e’s cig arette-ligh ter socke t. Note: If t he scanner do es not operate p roperly when yo u connec t a DC adapter, un plug the DC ada pter from the cigarett e-lighter soc ket and clea n the socket to remov e ashes and other d ebris.
16 Preparation Always use 50-ohm co axial cab le, such as RG- 58 or RG-8, to c onnect an o utdoor antenna. For l engths ov er 50 feet , use RG-8 low-los s dielectri c coaxial cabl e. If your antenna’s cable does not have a BNC connect or, you will a lso need a BNC ada pter (also av ailable a t your local R adioSha ck store).
17 Preparation • Set the volume to the l owest setti ng before yo u begin lis tening. After yo u begin liste ning, adjus t the volume to a com fortabl e level.
18 About Your Scanner CONNECTING THE CLONE CABLE You can transfer the programmed dat a to and fro m an- other PRO-92 o r PRO-2 067 usi ng the supplied clone ca- ble. C onnect th e cable between ea ch scanner’s PC/IF jacks. See “C lo ni ng th e Progr ammed Data from Scann er to Scann er” on Page 48.
