• Control Section (BC898T Only) – Scanner control buttons that mimic the scanner function
keys located on the scanner keypad. See the BC898T Operating Guide for details on how to use
these keys.
• Search Section (BC898T Only) – Scanner search buttons that mimic the search range keys
located on the scanner keypad. See the BC898T Operating Guide for details on how to use these
keys.
• Search / Scan Hits Section – Provides display and function control of the Scan / Search Hits
feature of ScanControl.
o Search / Scan Hit List Window – Display list that gets populated with detailed
information about individual Scan and Search Hits. Each line contains specific
information about the Hit event. The check box □ on the left side of each Hit event can
be used to flag a particular Hit event by the user. The user clicks on the checkbox to flag
the Hit event. The flagged events are then easily distinguished from all the others in the
list when reviewed or when the list is saved to the PCs hard disk. New Hit events are
added to the top of the list and the list will hold up to the maximum number of Hits
selected by the user in the Program Options screen. If the number of Hits exceeds the
maximum then the list “rolls over” saving the newest Hits and overwriting the oldest.
The Search / Scan Hit List can now be scrolled horizontally to view the entire Hit data
row. Additionally, the Hit duration is now appended to the end of the data row when the
transmission is complete. Each Hit line in the list contains the following data: “Hit#”
“System Name” “Group Name” “Alpha Tag” “ID or Freq” “PL Code” “Date” “Time”
“Hit Duration” “| separator” “# of hits for this ID/Freq” “Total Time for this ID / Freq
hh:mm:ss”.
o Hits Autosave Checkbox – Enables the Hit List Autosave function. If this checkbox is
checked the Scan / Search Hit List will automatically be saved to the PCs hard disk when
the Radio Control / Monitor screen is closed. This prevents the user from inadvertently
losing the Hit List events when leaving the Control / Monitoring screen. The default for
this checkbox is checked.
o Log Srch/Scan Hits Checkbox – Enables the Scan / Search Hit logging function. If this
checkbox is unchecked then no Hit event logging takes place. The default for this
checkbox is checked.
o Search Hits Autostore Checkbox – Enables the Search Hit Autostore feature.
Autostore works for both frequencies and talkgroup IDs concurrently. Search Hits listed
in the Search / Scan Hit List Window can be tagged (checked) by clicking on the check
box for the event item in the list. If Autostore is enabled the checked items will
automatically be stored in the next available Channel location or Scanlist location in
ScanControl Memory in the bank chosen in the Autostore >> Drop Down List. Search
frequency hits are stored in channel locations and Search talkgroup ID hits are stored in
Scanlist locations in the destination bank. NOTE: Tagged Scan
Hits ARE NOT stored
by the Autostore feature. Scan Hits are already in ScanControl Memory in the bank so
there’s no need to store them again. Only Search Hits are automatically stored. The
automatic storage action takes place when you click on the Save List button OR when
you click on the Close button to exit monitoring IF THIS CHECK BOX IS ENABLED.
Various notification messages will appear while the Autostore process in underway.
Channel and Scanlist locations that receive Autostored values will include the following
Alpha Tag displaying the number of the item tagged and the date and time of the hit -
