1 T erminology What is Scanning? Unlike standard AM or FM radio stations, most two-way communications do not transmit continuously . The UBC780XL T scans the channels you program until it finds an active frequency . Scanning stops on an active frequency and remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues.
2 T runkTrack™ changes this! Not only does your new UBC780XL T scan channels like a conventional scanner , it actually follows the users of a trunked radio system.
3 Feature Highlights • T runk T racking – Follows VHF High Band, UHF , 800MHz trunked public and government service systems just as if conventional two-way communications were used. • Multi-T rack – T rack more than one trunking system at a time.
4 Included with Y our Scanner Package If any of these items are missing or damaged, immediately contact your place of purchase. • AC Adaptor • Cigarette Lighter Adaptor Cord • Operating Guide .
5 Setup Connecting an Antenna Y ou must install an antenna before you can operate the scanner . Y ou have been provided a standard telescopic antenna that works well with this scanner , but you may want to purchases another type to increase the range.
6 T ypical Mounting Methods The UBC780XL T can be conveniently mounted on a table, bulkhead, overhead, or any other desired location (refer to figure below for typical mounting methods). Caution : Make sure there are no hidden electrical wires or other items behind the desired location before proceeding.
7 Applying Power for V ehicle Installation Y ou can power your scanner using either the supplied DC power cord or your vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket using DC cigarette lighter power cord. Caution : Y ou must use a power source that supplies 13.
8 Desktop Installation Y ou can place this scanner on a desk, shelf, or table to use it as a base station. 1. Flip up the feet for desk installation. 2.
9 Connecting an Earphone For private listening, you can connect an earphone (not supplied) with a 3.5 mm plug to the EXT . SP . jack on the back of the scanner . Be very careful as damage to your hearing can result if the VOLUME control is not set to the lowest level first .
10 Basic Operation T urn the Scanner On T urn the VOLUME control clockwise out of the detent position. The scanner automatically starts scanning. Since there are no frequencies programmed in your scanner initially , you may not receive any signals. Once you set the squelch and program some frequencies, you will be hearing conversations regularly .
11 Understanding the Menu System It is very important for you to understand the Menu screen. T o navigate through the Menu screen is really quite simple. Many of the features of this scanner , can only be accessed by the menu screens. There are several ways to get through the screens.
12 Menu Description and Numeric Keypad Equivalents Below are the menu screens and a brief description or purpose of the feature. 1:SYSTEM DATA 1:DIMMER Allows you to change the brightness of the display .
13 3. T one Search - In this mode, as soon as the scanner stops on any (non-trunked) channel, the scanner will begin to search for any subaudible tone that is being used on a transmitted frequency . The scanner will check each CTCSS tone sequentially and it will find DCS tones instantly .
14 The RF Attenuation feature works in all modes and attenuates (reduces) the incoming signal strength to prevent stronger signals from overloading the scanner . 6:STEPS Y our UBC780XL T is programmed with default step sizes for each frequency range (see Introduction page).
15 5:PROGRAM ID Y ou can program IDs into Scan List memory either during T runk Scan or Search without going into the Menu. However , you can also use the Menu to program IDs. This is particularly helpful when you are not near the trunked system you wish to later monitor .
16 10:EDACS ID FORM (EDCS) Y ou can change to display the talkgroups in decimal mode, but this mode does not provide you with nearly the flexibility that you get with AFS. The UBC780XL T defaults to show the talkgroup number in AFS mode (Agency-Fleet-Subfleet).
17 received during your search. Y ou can also lockout a particular CTCSS or DCS tone. Y ou may wish to do this if you want to search a range but not hear transmissions on any frequency that have particular subaudible tone. Note: Through the System Menu you can set the radio to operate in T one Search mode during Search as well.
18 Programming Before the UBC780XL T can begin conventional scanning, you must program a frequency into at least one channel. Repeat this procedure for each channel you want to program. Storing Frequencies into Channels 1. Select desired frequency . Here is a list of sample frequencies you can try: 156.
19 Duplicate Frequency Alert If you enter a frequency which has been stored in another channel, you will hear a beep and the other channel displays WARNING . Press to clear and start again. ––– OR ––– Press E again to store the frequency in both channels.
SERVICE SEARCH PUBLIC SAFETY 20 Beep Alert The scanner can alert you with three rapid beeps at the beginning of a transmission on an assigned frequency . Assigning the beep alert to a channel This alert can be set on/off to every channel (or to every ID memory for Trunking mode).
21 Scanning 1. After programming frequencies, simply press SCAN to begin scanning. 2. The bank indicators selected for scanning appear in the display , and the bank being currently monitored flashes. Y ou can deselect banks from active scanning by pressing their number on your keypad.
22 Still another method of direct access to a specific channel: 1 Press MAN . 2 Press ▲ or ▼ to select the channel. (or press and hold ▲ or ▼ to scroll more quickly .) Lastly to step up through the channels one at a time, repeatedly press MAN.
23 5. Press ▲ or ▼ to select one of the delay periods provided and then press E . DLY appears on the display unless no delay has been set. 6. For Search mode, select SEARCH EVENT - DELA Y , then set the delay period. Note : The delay periods are as follows: • None: Delay feature off • 1 sec.
24 3 . The scanner immediately resumes scanning because the locked out channel is no longer in the scanning sequence. Lockout T ips • Write down your locked-out channels and put in a convenient place in case you need to restore them. Restoring a Locked-out Channel 1.
25 Changing the Priority Channel Y ou cannot eliminate the Priority Channel, but you can change it to any one of the 50 available channels in each bank. 1. Press MAN . 2. T o select a new Priority Channel: a. Enter the channel number . b. Then press MAN again.
26 Searching Setting a Search Range Note: First you must set the search ranges through the menu screen prior to any searching. The UBC780XL T can search up to 10 separate frequency ranges to help you discover new stations in your area. T o set a search range, enter into the menu mode.
27 press E . Select 3: MODE for the receiver mode choices and then press E . Select 4: ALPHA TAG to enter an alpha tag using the VFO control. Search Hold Feature 1. Press HOLD/ ▲ at anytime to stop the search. 2. Press HOLD/ ▲ to move to the next higher frequency .
28 Storing Search Frequencies Y ou can quickly store any frequency you find during Search. Caution : Y ou must select the channel in which you will store the frequency before entering the search mode. Otherwise, you may erase a stored frequency that you want to keep.
29 Squelch (SQ) Mode The scanner can be set to the following SQ modes. • Carrier SQ mode (default setting) The scanner will stop on any transmission or squelch opening, regardless of whether any sub-audible tone has been programmed for the channel or search range.
30 • For example, the scanner shows the following displays • If the delay feature (-2 sec/-5 sec/-10 sec) has been set while in T one search mode, it resumes scanning according to the delay setting. Additional Menu Options for Searching Each of these additional menu options apply to all banks with search ranges entered.
31 Service Search The Service Search feature allows you to toggle through the following five preprogrammed services . The frequencies selected for these services are the most commonly used around the Australia. • 1: POLICE • 2: RAILROAD • 3: AIR • 4: MARINE • 5: UHF CB 1 .
32 T runked Systems Y our UBC780XL T is designed to track three major types of trunked radio systems. These systems are described here. ❖ MOTOROLA - Including T ype I, T ype II, Hybrid, SMARTNET , and Privacy Plus. Motorola systems are widely used by public safety and business users.
33 Programming and Receiving T runked Systems Programming T runking Frequencies The first step in tracking a trunked system is storing the frequencies in one of the 10 available banks in your scanner . Remember that you can only store one trunking system in each bank.
34 ☞ Important! 7. Press TRUNK for 2 seconds. A tone sounds, and E , M , or L icon appears on the display according to the system selected. Note : • T o clear a mistake while entering the frequency , press (decimal key) repeatedly until the display is cleared.
35 Setting the Squelch For trunked reception, a good setting for the SQUELCH control is in the centre of the range with the red marker pointing up. See the illustration. If set too high (CCW) in some cases it could prevent your scanner from locking to the control channel reliably .
36 The bottom line of the display indicates the Bank and the type of trunked system you are monitoring. Y ou can change this to display a bank tag by using the System Menu. Regardless of the system, you won't know exactly who you are receiving until you listen for a while.
37 Restoring Locked-out IDs T o unlock a single ID, follow these steps: 1. Press MENU . 2. Select TRUNK DA T A - BANK NO. - L/O ID REVIEW using ▲ , ▼ or VFO and pressing E , SELECT or VFO . 3. Select the locked out ID you want to unlock using ▲ or ▼ .
38 Scan Lists Each bank of your UBC780XL T can be a trunk tracking bank and it can be a conventional scanning bank. When you designate a bank as a trunking bank, your scanner sets up 10 Scan Lists, which are simply lists used to store your favourite IDs.
39 T o enter an EDACS ® ID: a. Enter ID you want to store. Use the for the “dash”. b. Press E . Hint : Remember that Uniden's AFS format allows you to enter full or partial EDACS IDs for powerful flexibility in all modes. Be sure to read the section "EDACS Reception" on page 49 to learn how this works.
40 ID Scan Mode 1. Press SCAN to begin scanning the lists you have programmed. If you haven't programmed any IDs, ERROR appears for a few seconds. 2. T o remove a Scan List from active scanning, press the number of the Scan List on your keypad. The Scan List indicator turns off, and the IDs in that list are not scanned.
41 Setting Priority in T runking Mode Y ou can set priority in your trunking lists, just as you do in your conventional ones. Y ou can set the priority by pressing and holding PRI for 2 seconds. After you’ve set up your Scan List, press PRI to activate it.
42 I-Call (Motorola/EDACS) I-Calls are direct unit-to-unit transmissions that are not heard by other system users. Y our UBC780XL T can receive these transmissions.
43 I-CALLS IN SCAN AND MANUAL MODE Y ou can store I-Call IDs in scanlists, just like talkgroup IDs, for use by ID Scan and Manual modes. T o program a specific I-Call Unit ID into a scanlist: EDACS or Motorola T ype 1 Enter followed by the Unit ID digits, then E .
44 TRUNK SEARCH : This mode works similarly to TRUNK SCAN. If the scanner finds any (non-locked-out) ID when it checks the control channel, you will hear it. Y ou will then hear any replies that follow within two seconds (or whatever delay you may have set).
45 EDACS ® Reception EDACS ® Tracking T runkTracker III now allows tracking of EDACS ® trunked systems. Until now these widely used systems have been almost impossible to monitor with a conventional scanner . With your T runkT racker III listening to EDACS(s) is remarkably easy , and perhaps even easier than conventional scanning.
46 An EDACS ® T runked system This chart shows how talkgroups are organised within an EDACS system at the AGENCY level. The individual talkgroups cannot be shown at this scale because there are over 2000. However the chart can show the 16 Agencies in this example.
47 Special EDACS ® Features AFS Partial Entry Feature AFS is Uniden's method of encoding EDACS talkgroups. AFS stands for 'Agency-Fleet-Subfleet'. AFS talkgroups are used in all EDACS reception -- in ID SEARCH, ID LOCKOUT and ID SCAN scanlists.
48 LT R ® Reception LT R ® Tracking LT R ® (Logic T runked Radio) systems are trunking systems used primarily by business or private communications service providers, such as taxicabs, delivery trucks, and repair services. These systems encode all trunking information as digital subaudible data that accompanies each transmission.
49 Motorola Reception Motorola Tracking There are really two types of Motorola trunking systems. These are usually referred to as T ype I and T ype II systems. T ype I only occurs on some 800 MHz systems. All VHF , UHF and 900 MHz trunking systems use T ype II.
50 Fleet Map Programming If you have programmed a trunk tracking bank for Motorola type and press TRUNK to start Multi-T rack, you will see user IDs display on your screen. Since the UBC780XL T defaults to T ype II systems, all the IDs will appear as numbers.
51 3. Select the size code for the first block using ▲ , ▼ , or VFO . 4. Press E , SELECT , or VFO . The next available block displays. 5. Repeat step 3 and 4 until you have selected a size code for each block. For details about each size code, see Fleet Map Size Codes in the Appendix.
52 7. Enter a new offset channel with the keypad. Note : Y ou can only input within a range of 380-759. 8. Press E . The display changes for entering the next base frequency .
53 Control Channel Only Mode When this function is activated, trunking is performed using control channel data only . V oice channel (also known as "working channel") frequencies do not have to be programmed into memory . When using this feature, the scanner will display "CC" and channel activity indicator bars will not operate.
54 Disconnect T one Detect Option (End Code) When this function is disabled, the radio looks for squelch before returning to the control channel instead of waiting for the disconnect tone. Only in rare instances will you need to adjust the default settings.
55 Remote Interface Y ou can communicate and program your UBC780XL T in numerous ways with peripheral devices using the Remote Interface Cable port. This radio of fers the following modes: ❖ REMOTE (PC Control) MODE Program and control your scanner remotely from a PC using third party software (see the flyer included in the box).
56 For information on purchasing third party software to program and control your UBC780XL T , see the flyer included in the box with this radio. PC Control Parameter For your information: T ransfer s.
57 Y ou can clone all of the programming of one UBC780XL T into another , including frequencies, talkgroup IDs, alpha tags, delay settings, etc. After connecting the two scanners, turn the radios on. Prepare each scanner for clone mode as follows. 1. Press MENU .
58 Additional Features The following additional features are designed for you to customise your scanner . Once these features have been turned on or off, they will remain as they are set until you reset them, even if you turn the scanner off and then on again.
59 Reverse Mode This key will allow the user to observe the reverse frequency of the repeater . While pressing /R VRS , the standard pair frequency will be displayed. For a list of the standard pair frequencies, refer to the table “ Reverse List ” in the Appendix.
60 Care and Maintenance General Use • T urn the scanner off before disconnecting the power . • Always write down the programmed frequencies in the event of memory loss. • If memory is lost, simply reprogram each channel. The display shows 000.0000 in all channels when there has been a memory loss.
61 T roubleshooting If your UBC780XL T is not performing properly , try the following steps. Problem Suggestion Scanner won ’ t work. 1. Check the connections at both ends of the AC Adaptor . 2. T urn on the wall switch of your room. Y ou could be using an outlet controlled by the wall switch.
62 Problem Suggestion Scanner won ’ t track. 1. May not be a system which can be tracked by your scanner . Make sure you press and hold TRUNK for 2 seconds to enter into trunk mode. 2. Missing the data frequency . 3. Change to a T ype 1 Scanner setup.
