10 Introduction Introduction Y our BCD396T scanner is a state-of-the -art scanner radio with T runkT racker IV™ and automatic scanning capabilities. Y o u can store frequencies such as police, fire/emergency , marine, air , amateur , and other communications into the scann er .
11 Feature Highlights Feature Highlight s General Close Call TM RF Capture T echnology - you can set the scanner so it detect s and provides information about nearby radio transmissions. See “Using the Close Call Feature” on Page 100 for more information.
12 Feature Highlights CTCSS and DCS Squelch Modes – prevent interference from st ations not using the mode you select. Audio AGC – Helps automatically balance the volume level between dif ferent radio systems. Fire T one-Out St andby – Lets you set the scanner to alert you if a two-tone sequen tial p age is transmitted.
13 Feature Highlights can select from 9 dif ferent tone patterns and also se t the alert volume level independe ntly from the main volume level. Automatic Channel S tep – Accepts frequencies on any valid channel step, even if it does not fall within the band plan’ s default step.
14 Feature Highlights systems. The scanner can scan both co nventional and trunked systems at the same time. Control Channel Only Scanning – If the scanner is set to scan Motorola trunking fr equencies, you can set it so it scans using only control channel data.
15 Feature Highlights Priority Priority Scan – Priority channels let you keep track of activity on your most important channel(s) while monitoring other channels for transmissions.

18 Feature Highlights 3. Repeat S teps 1 and 2 until you have entered the system name. Then press down on the scroll control or press E to accept the setting.
19 Understanding Scanning Underst anding Scanning This section prov ides you with back ground on how scanning works. Y ou don’t really need to know all of this to use your scanner , but some background knowledge will he lp you get the most from your BCD396T .
20 Understanding Scanning finds an active frequency , then stops on that frequency and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanning cycle resumes until the scan ner receives another transmission.
21 Understanding Scanning units, which transmit the correct tone along with their signal can “talk” to th e repeater . CTCSS and DCS are also used in areas that receive interference where there are se veral stations with output freq uencies clos e to each o ther .
22 Understanding Scanning Conventional Scanning Conventional scanning is a relatively simple concept. Each group of users in a conventional system is assigned a single frequency (for simplex systems) or two frequencies (for repeater syste ms) . A ny t ime on e of them transmits, their transmission always goe s out on the same frequency .
23 Understanding Scanning Simplex Operation Simplex systems use a single frequency for both transmit and receive. Most radios using this type of operation are limited to line-of-sigh t operation. This type of radio is frequently used at construction job sites, and with inexpensive con s umer radios such as GMRS/FRS radios.
24 Understanding Scanning When tracking these types of systems , you might want to remember these import ant points: • Y our scanner can track more th an one trunking system at a time and scan conventio nal and trunked systems at the same time.
25 Understanding Scanning system with a lot of user s, only a few users are ev er transmitting at any one time. Instead of being assigned a frequency , as with conventional systems, each group is assig ned a talk group ID. A central computer controls th e frequency each group operates on.
26 Understanding Scanning many as 4 per system), plus one or mor e voice channels (typically 10, 20, or 28 to tal channels). When a user presses Push T o T alk (PTT) to transmit, their radio first sends their t alk group information to the control channel.
27 Understanding Scanning EDACS T runking EDACS trunking works in much the same way as Motorola trunking with a couple o f major dif ferences. In an EDACS system, each frequency used by the system is assigne d a Logical Channel N umber (LCN) so that less data ne eds to be transmitted by the control channel.
28 Understanding Scanning system, your BCD396T lets you assign wildcard ID’ s that let you, for example, use only one ID memory to identify all units in either an agency or a fleet. EDACS SCA T – EDACS SCA T (Single Channel Autonomous T runking) systems operate on a single channel and alternate control dat a with analog voice traf fic.
29 Understanding Scanning I-Call (Motorola/EDACS) I-calls are direct unit-to - unit transmissions that are n ot heard by other system users . Y our BCD396T can receive I-call transmission s. See “Setting I-Call (Motorola Analog and EDACS Systems On ly)” on Page 77 for more information about mo nitoring I-call transmissions.

11 6 Care and Maintenance Rep airs Do not attempt an y repair . The scann er contains no user serviceable part s. Contact the Uniden Customer Service Center or take it to a qualified repair techni- cian. Birdies All radios can receive “birdies” (undesire d signals).
11 7 Troubleshooting T roubleshooting If your BCD396T is not performing properly , try these steps. Problem Possible Cause Suggestion The scanner doesn’t work. The scanner might not be receiving any power . Make sure the AC adapter i s c o n n e c t e d t o an AC outlet and the scanner .
11 8 Troubleshooting If you experience difficulty while in TrunkT r acker™ mode, try the following step s. The squelch might need to be adjusted. Adjust the squelch threshold. See “Turning On the Scanner and Setting the Squelch” on Page 43. One or more channels might be locked out.
11 9 Troubleshooting Scanner won’t track a trunked system. (continued) The system you are trying to scan might be L TR or EDAC S. Set the scanner to scan L TR or EDACS systems. Review “Programming L TR Systems” on Page 69 and “Programming EDACS Systems” on Page 66.
