I have purchased a Uniden BCT15X. I have come to the point where I need to download from the scanner. When I try though, the scanner says Remote Mode Keypad Lock.
Can anyone help? What did I do wrong? It's been in this Lock phase for 45 minutes and nothing is happening.
You might want to give more info so someone could help you better.
What software program are you using?
Are you trying to "download" from the scanner as you state, which is downloading all the frequencies you've programmed into the scanner and copying them into your software program on your computer?
Or are you trying to "upload" new frequencies that you've entered into a software program on your computer and now want to put in your scanner?
Are you using the supplied cable, the RS232 serial cable, that came with the scanner, or are you using a USB-1 cable?
As the other poster stated, I too get that same message but only when transferring information from my software program, FreeScan, into my scanner. But I only have about 100 frequencies so it takes about 15 seconds.
Let us know.....
