Motorola APCO25 User Manual

To skip over a frequency, press L/O when the scanner is stopped on a frequency you want
to skip.

Notes: • You can program up to 200 skip frequencies. The 201st skip frequency entered

causes the first skipped frequency to unlock.

• If all frequencies in the search range are set to skip, a beep sounds and it moves

to Search Hold mode. To resume searching:

1) Unskip all skipped frequencies

—- OR —-

2) Select a different Search Frequency range.

To unskip all skipped frequencies, press and hold L/O for 2 seconds in Search
Hold mode.

If you find a frequency you want to save into a channel, simply press TRNFR when the
scanner is stopped on that frequency. The scanner displays the lowest-numbered empty
channel. Use the scroll bar to select the channel you want to save the frequency into, then
press E.

Notes: • If you have already stored this frequency, the scanner displays WARNING

DUPLICATE and the channel where the frequency is stored. To store the frequen-
cy anyway, press E again.

• After you store the frequency, the scanner resumes searching.

• If all channels are used, the scanner defaults to the last-used channel prior to enter-

ing the search mode.

During searching, you can have the scanner automatically store active frequencies into a
bank you choose.

1. Press the numbers corresponding to the banks you want the scanner to store found

frequencies into.

2. Press SRCH to start the auto-store operation.

3. Press 

▲/HOLD to stop auto-store. The scanner exits the auto-store mode.

Note: To ensure that you catch most active frequencies for the band, you should allow the

auto-store operation to continue through at least a few complete sweeps of the band.
Depending on the types of services, some occasionally active frequencies might not
have activity for minutes or hours at a time.
