Setting Up Your Scanner

These guidelines will help you install and set up your new scanner:

The UBC800XLT can be placed on a convenient surface in your home as a base

station, and connected to a standard outlet. You must use either the supplied

antenna or an electrically correct outdoor antenna, properly and safely mounted at

your chosen site.

The scanner is also designed to accommodate the DIN-E and ISO-DIN automotive

mounting configurations. A DIN-E sleeve is not supplied (optional hardware).

The unit can also be placed above or beneath the dash of your vehicle using the

supplied bracket and mounting hardware.

• If your scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the scanner or

its antenna away from the source.

• To improve the scanner’s reception, use an optional external antenna

designed for multi-band coverage. (You can purchase this type of antenna at a

local electronics store). If the optional antenna has no cable, use 50-75 ohms

coaxial cable for lead-in. A mating plug might be necessary for the optional

antennas.

• Use an optional mono earphone or mono headset with proper impedance

(32 ohms) for private listening. Read the precautions on the inside front cover

of this Owners Manual.

• Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as the kitchen or

bathroom.

• Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements or vents.

Base Station

This is the simplest approach to let you get started quickly. Decide on a location

that is convenient to a nearby wall outlet, has desk space to let you complete your

programming worksheets, will safely allow the indoor antenna to be extended, or

near a window to use an outdoor antenna.
