Some of the systems that ar

e pr

epr

ogrammed in 

your scanner ar

e networked, multi-site Motor

ola 

systems, such as Smartzone, OmniLink, and 

networked P25 systems. These systems ar

e 

designed to cover very lar

ge ar

eas by using 

multiple networked transmitter sites, each with its 

own set of fr

equencies.

Your Advanced Digital Scanner includes a Multi-

site featur

e that can enhance the operation of 

the scanner when monitoring Multi-site systems. 

Multi-site can be enabled by editing the trunking 

system (TSYS) parameters for the system. Multi-

site can be set to Of

f, Stat (Stationary), or Roam. 

By default, Multi-site is set to Of

f. 

To

 activate Multi-site mode on a pr

epr

ogrammed

Motor

ola or P25 networked system:

1.

Pr

ess 

PGM (PROG),

 then navigate to a 

talkgr

oup on the networked multi-site system 

using the 

STWX

 keys.

2.

Pr

ess the 

EDIT

 softkey

, then pr

ess the 

CURR

softkey

.

3.

Scr
oll down to the TSYS item and pr

ess the 

SEL

 key to edit the TSYS parameters.

4.

Scr
oll to Multi-site. Use the 

WX

 keys to 

select

Off, Stat,

 or 

Roam

. When set to 

Off

,

the scanner will find the first usable contr

ol 

channel in the contr

ol channel list and use 

it until it is no longer usable. When set to 

Stat

, the scanner will track the system using 

any contr

ol channel in the list that is usable. 

When set to 

Roam

, the scanner will attempt 

to locate and use the best possible contr

ol 

channel and ignor

e others, until the contr

ol 

channel is no longer usable, then it will locate 

a new “best contr

ol channel” to use. Roam 

decisions ar

e made using the Thr

eshold 

Hi and Thr

eshold Lo settings. For mor

e 

information on Multi-site, please see 

 in your User’

s 

Guide.

5.

Pr

ess the 

SAVE

 softkey to save your changes 

to the TSYS parameters, then pr

ess the 

SAVE

softkey again to use the scanner

.

6.

You should experiment with dif

fer
ent Multi-

site modes and thr

eshold settings to find a 

combination that works best for your location. 

Keep in mind that the thr

eshold settings 

ar

e only available when Multi-site 

Roam

 is 

selected.

7.

Multi-site functionality is not available in 

EDACS or L

TR trunking.

Some of the systems that ar

e pr

epr

ogrammed in 

your scanner ar

e networked, multi-site EDACS 

networks. Like Motor

ola and P25 networked 

systems, these EDACS systems ar

e designed 

to cover very lar

ge ar

eas by using multiple 

networked transmitter sites, each with its own set 

of fr

equencies.

EDACS trunking is quite dif

fer
ent fr

om Motor

ola 

and P25 trunking. W

ith Motor

ola and P25 

trunking, the subscriber radios on the system 

(and your scanner) get all of the system channel 

fr

equency information fr

om the contr

ol channel, 

which simplifies wide-ar

ea networked system 

scanning. In EDACS, it is necessary to pr
