Albrecht AE100T Scanner Owners Manual

							31 Follow these steps to turn the scanners key tone on or off.
1. If the scanner is on, turn VOLUME OFF/MAX counterclockwise until it clicks to turn
it off.
2.While you press and hold down the 2 and ENTER keys, turn on the scanner.
3. After a second, release 2 and ENTER.
TAPE RECORDER REMOTE CONTROL
When you specify any channels (up to 10 channels) to receive signals, you can
record them in the tape recorder by remote control.
1.  Press MANUAL.
2.  To select the channel where you want to select the tape remote channel, use the
number keys to enter the channel number, then press MANUAL.
3.  Press FUNC. FUNC flushes.
4.  Press / /REC while FUNC flushes. rEcord and frequency will appears alternately.
GENERAL HINTS
Birdies
The term “birdies” refers to noise signals which are generated by the electronics of
the scanner itself. On certain frequencies, birdies are capable of interfering with, or
even preventing, reception. Where the interference is of a mild nature, it may be
possible to solve the problem by turning the SQUELCH control further to the right. If
possible, use the following frequencies as little as possible.

RECEPTION 
						

							32 The distance over which it is possible for you to receive messages is restricted to
approximately 25 km. The manner in which the scanner has been positioned will also
be relevant here. It is preferable to position the scanner in such a way that the aerial
has a “clear view”. In order to be able to receive transmitters located at distances
beyond the aforementioned limit, the use of an outside aerial is recommended.
FREQUENCY GRID
The band division (frequency grid) – i.e. the distance between two frequencies lying
next to each other – is different for each frequency band.
Frequency RangeFrequency Grid
25.000-87.495 MHz5 kHz
87.500-107.950 MHz50 kHz
108.000-136.975 MHz25 kHz
137.000-143.995 MHz5 kHz
144.000-146.000 MHz12.5 kHz
146.005-224.995 MHz5 kHz
225.000-1300.000 MHz12.5 kHz
This division is called the frequency grid. Where the frequency keyed in does not fit
into this grid, the scanner will round down the frequency to the nearest value.
MAINTENANCE AND USE
The AE100T is a quality product and requires a minimum amount of maintenance.
Carefully read the following instructions:
. Do not expose the scanner to rain or moisture.
. When using normal batteries, always replace weak batteries in one batch, and only
replace them with new batteries. Where possible, use batteries which have a long life
span.
. Handle the scanner with care. Dropping it or subjecting it to rough treatment might
damage its electronics.
. Where necessary, clean the scanner with a damp cloth. Do not apply any cleaning
fluids or solutions to it. 
						

							33 . Only use the scanner in normal temperature conditions. High temperatures, or
sudden changes of temperature, will reduce the life span of the scanner.
. Avoid the leaking of batteries by changing them at the appropriate time. Where
possible, use rechargeable NiCad batteries.
IN CASE OF FAULT
Where a fault arises, contact your supplier. However, before you do so check that the
fault was not caused by an operational error. Carefully reread the relevant section in
the instructions.
