PRO-92 Tutorial: How to Program Motorola Trunked Frequencies

This tutorial covers programming Trunked Motorola frequencies into your PRO-92 Scanner. For this example, we are programming the frequency 866.1625 MHz into Bank 0 Channel 00.

Step 1: Select the Channel



Press MANUAL, enter the channel number where you want to store a frequency, then press MANUAL again. M and the channel number appear at the upper left corner on the display (for example, M000).

Step 4: Clear a Mistake



If you make a mistake, hold down CL for about 0.5 seconds to delete a single digit and about 1.5 seconds to delete all digits.



Step 5: Stor the Frequency



Press ENTER to store the frequency into the channel. The blinking cursor disappears. Note: If you made a mistake entering the frequency, Invalid Freq. briefly appears and the scanner beeps when you press ENTER. Start again from Step 3.



Step 6: Turn Off Delay



Trunked frequencies must have delay turned off. When delay is turned off, the circled area on the display should be a dot. If the letter D appears, press FUNC then press DELAY/1 so that the D becomes a dot as shown above.



Step 7: Select the Trunking Mode



Press MODE until MO for Motorola systems appears. Then the next channel in sequence is ready for programming.



Step 8: Program the Next Channels



Press PGM or the UP ARROW key so that the number in the circled area changes to the next channel number, then repeat from Step 3 to program additional channels.



Step 9: Set the Bank Mode



Press FUNC 2 to put the bank in OPEN (+) or Closed (-) mode.



Step 10: Start Scanning



To start scanning, press SCAN.
