I'm stumped. I have favorites lists programmed in Sentinel. The quick key numbers are all set up and show correctly on the scanner. But when I toggle the quick key numbers, an entirely different favorites list scans. One of the favorites lists actually comes up under two different quick keys, and one favorites list is completely missing from all of the quick keys. But there it is, all set up correctly when I go to the scanner menu. I've gone back to Sentinel and wrote to scanner (even checked off "delete favorites from scanner). I restarted the scanner. Nothing works. Help.
I suspect that what is happening, is that you are pressing the Systems quick key number to toggle them. But the scanner is treating that as a Favorites list QK.
You cannot assign more than 1 Favorites list to the exact same QK number. But for your System quick keys, you can use the same number either on multiple systems in that list, or on more than one list.
The quick keys, for lack of a better description, are in 'layers.
The first layer is the Favorites list, the second the system (on that list), and the third the department, or site key within that system.
So, you would first enter the respective Favorites list QK, a decimal point ("."), then the system's QK.
If you were trying to toggle a specific department on or off, then your entry would be FL.SYS.DEP keys.
