Below is an automated script for the CE-232 Interface donated by Mr. Rich McNamee. Simply cut out the below text exactly between the "cut here" lines and save it in your CE-232 Script directory as the filename LINK123.SCR and then run it at your pleasure. This script effectively links three SEARCH Banks into one on your CE-232-equipped PRO-2004/5/6 scanner. A slight modification could link for or more including all ten Search Banks into one. Have fun! Bill Cheek COMMtronics Engineering ====================[ cut here ]========================== / LINK123.SCR Rich McNamee (K2QG) 30 August 1996 / / / This script will link three search ranges 1, 2, and 3. / / The upper frequency limit for each search range must be an / exact multiple of the step size or the end of the search / range will never be seen by the script. If that is allowed / to occur the script will "stick" in one search range. / / In an attempt to make this easier in the 869-894 mhz / range, the script forces the step size to 30 khz and looks for a / frequency greater than (upper limit frequency - 0.030 khz). / / In all other frequency ranges, it is up to you to ensure / that a valid upper limit is entered. / / / NOTE: Occasionally, the script will "miss" the upper limit / frequency. This will cause the current search range to be / be repeated more than once. / keyclr MSG1- ***** LINK123.SCR ***** MSG2- MSG3- MSG4- This script links search ranges 1, 2, and 3, MSG5- together.
