Understanding the Display

The LCD provides important information about

the status of the radio. The top row of icons

provide status information. Beneath this row,

there are 4 rows of 16 characters each that

provide alphanumeric information such as

frequencies and object names. The last row

usually contains softkeys for F1, F2, and F3.

The Function Key (FUNC) has been pressed.

The scanner is currently receiving trunking

control channel data.

The attenuator is set for Global mode.

The attenuator is currently active.

The radio’s squelch circuit is open.

Signal meter indicating strength of the

received signal.

Battery status indicator. Comes on solid when

battery is weak, and ﬂashes two times each

second when battery failure is imminent.

Menu position and search direction indicators.

Understanding Object Oriented Scanning

Your PRO-651 scanner utilizes an entirely new

method of programming called Object Oriented

Scanning. In Object Oriented Scanning, all

“Scannable Objects” are treated the same.

Scannable Objects include talkgroups on

trunked radio systems, conventional non-trunked

frequencies, limit searches, service searches,

and Signal Stalker II conﬁgurations. All these

Scannable Objects are created, edited, grouped,

scanned and deleted using the same methods.

Scannable Objects can also be searched, ﬁltered,

and locked out.

Scannable Objects are mapped to Scan Lists,

which can be named, enabled, and disabled.

There is even a Favorites Scan List. It is easy to

search for new frequencies or talkgroups and

add them to Scan List groups. It is also easy to

delete or deactivate objects and Scan Lists that

you do not want to listen to, including a powerful

temporary lockout mode that allows you to zero

in on activity associated with a speciﬁc incident,

then restore your desired conﬁguration when the

incident is over.

Object Oriented Scanning is completely different

from any prior scanning receiver technology.

Accordingly, some users may ﬁnd it difﬁcult to

visualize and understand how Object Oriented

Scanning works. This may be especially true for

users who are familiar with more recent scanning

receiver technologies.

We suggest that you keep the following Object

Oriented Scanning Tenets in mind as you

proceed with your study of this manual.

Understanding your Scanner

1. Memory organization is nothing more than a

large list of Scannable Objects.

2. A Scannable Object is simply “something

that can be scanned,” including conventional

channels, trunking talkgroups, limit searches,

service searches, and Signal Stalker II setups.

3. There are no “systems,” “banks,” “groups,”

“sub-groups,” or “ID lists.” There is simply

a very large collection of objects, each with

their own attributes. Scannable Objects all

exist at the same level or hierarchy within

the scanner—no single type of Scannable

Object is more important than another, and

Scannable Objects do not have dependencies

on or links to other Scannable Objects in

order for them to function properly.

4. The primary method of grouping the

collection of objects is by mapping them to

Scan Lists. Mapping a Scannable Object to

one or more Scan Lists does not change the

physical location of the object in the memory

system. When an object is mapped to one

or more Scan Lists, the object itself has

not moved nor changed from what it is—a

simple, standalone object that is part of a

larger collection.

Object abbreviations used in this manual

Object names are abbreviated so that they can

easily ﬁt into the 16 character LCD. You should

take a moment and become familiar with these

abbreviations now.

CONV – Conventional Channel Object

A CONV object is a regular, non-trunked

frequency used for radio communications. CONV
