Hello, I continue to have trouble with nothing to scan popping up. Are there any experts that have dozens and dozens of favorites, perhaps we can chat direct to walk through this. I use the same program / profile between several 436 / 536's. Copied same program to different 436 / 536 and have dozens of favorites showing turned on but not scanning. I have gone over the check list several times and can't seem to find the issue. One thing I am finding is while looking at a favorite and go to review avoids, I find it is avioded, I hit E to stop avioding, and hit a second time and it says nothing avioded. Turned radio off overnight and back on this morning and it is now somehow avioded again, FL quick keys on, systems keys on, location is on, id search is on, service types are turned on etc. I am using ARC 536 pro to create these and have done so for years, most are under custom 1 which is also on. Anyone else dealing with this or want to compare notes? Thanks Scott
Here’s the checklist;
Nothing to Scan" Checklist BCDx36HP
Scanner Checklist:
1. A location has to be set in 'Set Your Location' to monitor the Database.
2. You must enable at least one Favorites List or the Full Database in 'Set Scan Selection>Select Lists to Monitor'.
3. Favorites Lists or Systems with QK's assigned to them must be enabled with QK's or in 'Set Scan Selection>Manage Quick Key Status'.
4. Make sure 'ID Search' is On for the system if no IDs are programmed.
5. Service Types for the channels you want to monitor must be set to On.
6. Any FL with 'Use Location Control' set to On must have locations programmed for the Departments and/or Sites.
If you are programming everything in Sentinel first and sending it to the scanner:
Edit Profile>Scan Selection tab: Make sure 'Monitor' and 'Download' are On for FL's you want to scan.
Check or uncheck 'Monitor Full Database'.
Edit Profile>Service Types tab: Make sure the Service Types you want to monitor are checked.
Custom 1 is needed for miscellaneous channels.
Edit Profile>Location Settings tab: Make sure you have a location programmed for scanning the Full Database or FL's with 'Use Location Control' set to On.
Edit Profile>Quick Key Status tab: Make sure FLQK's are checked for FL's you want to monitor.
Edit Favorites List>System QK Status tab: Make sure SQK's are checked for systems you want to monitor.
Edit Favorites List>System>Options tab: Make sure 'ID Search' is On if no IDs are programmed.
Edit Favorites List>System>Dept/Site Quick Keys Status tab: Make sure Department/Site QK's are checked for departments/sites you want to monitor.
Edit Favorites List>System>Dept/Site>Location tab: Make sure Departments/Sites have locations programmed if 'Use Location Control' is set to On for the FL.
