'Nothing Enabled' error:
If the customer uploaded data and the scanner displays 'Nothing enabled' this indicates that either:
- none of the scanlists (1-20) are enabled. Scanlists can be enabled by pressing the numeric buttons 0-9 (use FUNC + 0-9 for scanlists 11-20). Try pressing the number 1 key on the scanner's key pad to enable the default scanlist 1.
- no objects are assigned to a scanlist. In the PRO-106/197 frequencies/talkgroups must be assigned to a scanlists before they can be scanned. This can be done in ARC500 or during the import process from radioreference. In the RR import window there is a tab called 'scanlists' and this defines the scanlists the objects are linked to during the import process.
Programming mode:
- The software will automatically put the scanner in programming mode. Customer should not put the scanner in program mode by holding the PGM button + power on. That is only used for firmware upgrades.
Toggling Scan Lists
To toggle scan lists off or on, use the number keys on the scanner's keypad. Scan Lists 1 - 10 are toggled by using numbers 1 - 0, and Scan Lists 11 - 20 are toggled by pressing the FUNC key and then a number 1 - 0 (i.e. FUNC + 3 = Scan List 13).
Trunk Systems
Importing Trunked Systems and Talk Groups
1. To Import from Radio Reference in ARC500, click Internet > Radioreference Import
2. On the next page enter your Radioreference Username and Password and then click on 'Connect'. The software will remember your username and password and next time you open the import window it will automatically connect.
3. Using the drop-down menus, select the State/Province and County. Next press the yellow Trunk Systems button. This will populate the Trunk System drop down list with all the available trunk systems. It now takes some time for the software to collect the data so be patient.
Change country: The default country selection is 'USA'. To change select a new Country from the country drop down menu and click 'Connect'.
4. Click on the '+' signs to expand the Site(s) and Talkgroups available for the selected system placing a check mark for those Sites and Talkgroups you want to import. You must select at least one Site to Import along with the Talkgroups or you will get a 'No TSYS Assigned' warning when you begin to scan.
5. In the Scanlists tab you can select the Scanlists. (without this, the Talkgroups will not be assigned a Scan List and when you start to scan you will get a 'Nothing Enabled' warning).
6. Click on the green 'IMPORT' button (Any site or Talkgroup without a check mark will not be imported, so check them over before proceeding.)
WARNING NOTE: The scanner is limited to a total of 32 frequencies for a trunking system. That means that no more than 32 Control Channel frequencies or a combination of Control Channel frequencies and Alternate Control Channel frequencies can be entered per system. If all the frequencies in use on a particular site are entered, that will reduce the number of sites you will be able to enter in that system.
In an EDACS or LTR Standard system, each Site must be programmed as a seperate system. Since all the frequencies must be imported in these types of systems (instead of just a Control Channel as in a Motorola system), and since the frequencies must be in LCN order, frequencies from different sites CANNOT be mixed in the same TSYS frequency list.
NOTE: Check the Radio Reference Database for the system you are importing. Some of the Admins have better descriptions than display attributes. Remember, only 16 characters of either the description or the display attribute in the RR Database are imported. You can always change the alpha tag field yourself, too.
8. To upload the data imported from the Radio Reference Database to the scanner, click on Scanner > Upload to Scanner. Check the usb/com port and then press 'START UPLOAD'.The scanner will reboot itself after the upload is finished and then should start scanning automatically after uploading. If not, press SCAN. You might also have to press the number 1 key on the scanner to enable the #1 Scanlist.
9. Click on File (upper left corner) > Save As.. and save this information to the ARC500 folder on your computer as yourfilename.gr5
