every frequency for each site in the network as a
separate trunked radio system.
You will find that networked EDACS systems are
configured in the preprogrammed data in one
of three different ways, depending on the space
available in the V-Scanner where the networked
EDACS system can be found, and depending
on the type of system and size of the jurisdiction
where it is deployed. The “Preprogrammed Data
Directory” lists these as Methods 1, 2, and 3.
Where a networked EDACS system has been
configured using Method 1, we have assigned
individual sites to individual Scan Lists. By turning
all of the Scan Lists on (for every site in the
networked EDACS system), you should be able
to achieve a sort of “Roaming” functionality, as
described above in the section above regarding
Motorola and P25 Multi-site systems. You can
toggle the scan lists on and off to exclude certain
sites in the network from scan operation.
Where a networked EDACS system has been
configured using Method 2, we have assigned
one or more sites to the same Scan Lists.
Typically, these sites will be located in rural areas,
and the scanner should find and use the best site
in the group for scanning. If necessary, you can
lock out the TSYS objects associated with systems
that you do not want to scanner to monitor.

Preprogrammed Data Directory
The following pages provide a directory of the
preprogrammed contents of the V-Scanner
folders as shipped from the factory. The columns
are defined as follows:
RR System
Name
The System Name as listed on
RadioReference.com
VS Name Name of the V-Scanner file
VS The V-Scanner number where the
system can be found
SL The Scan List number that the
system is assigned to
System
Name
The system name as displayed by
the radio
State The state where the system is
located
User Type State wide, County, City, or
Regional (Regional = more than
one city or County)
System
Type
Motorola: an analog or mixed
mode Motorola system using a
3600 baud control channel
Project 25: Any APCO Project 25
system
EDACS W: EDACS Wide (9600CC)
EDACS N: EDACS Narrow (4800CC)
Net EDACS W/N 1, 2, or 3: A
networked EDACS system stored
using Method 1, 2, or 3 (see the
“Monitoring Networked EDACS Systems”
section above)
LTR: a Logic Trunked Radio (LTR)
system
