Default Arc 996 & 396

Hi Folks,

I programmed both my scanners with the same program and erased prior to uploading. When I checked the mem used on the 996 was at 19% and the 396 was 38%. Why were they not equal?

Because the 996 holds 500 systems and the 396 holds 400

Default % Used

Check the details on the 996 screen. It lists percentages of systems, sites and channels separately; the single number you're seeing is a blend of those.

Thanks for your input guys, I did forget about the 100 systems differance. I guess that was never a critical spec for me and I looked at both as being equal.

I will miss the Startup Keys on the 396.

Thanks again
