Fleet Map ProgrammingIf you have programmed a trunk tracking bank and selectR, you will see user IDs display on your screen. SincetheBC 235XLT defaults to Type II systems, all the IDswill appear as numbers. However, if you notice a mix ofodd and even user IDs, for example 6477, 2560, 6481,6144, 1167, etc., then you are probably monitoring either aType I or Hybrid system. SeeTypes of Trunking Systemson page 35.You may also notice that you’re missing responses whenyou hold on an active ID. Unlike Type II systems, Type I/IIisystems require a Fleet Map that sets specificFleet-Subfleet parameters. It’s easy to select a Fleet Mapfor your scanner; what isn’t always easy is selecting orprogramming a map that matches your particular area.There are 16 preset Fleet Maps listed in the appendix thatyou can choose, and these are usually a good place tostart when setting up a Type I/IIi trunk tracking bank. If youchoose a preset map and still have difficulty followingcomplete conversations, then you’ll have to program yourown Fleet Map.Selecting Trunking Programming ModeTo change the system type which your scanner monitors,you must be in the Trunking Programming mode.
