Intuitive "Object Oriented" User
Interface Design - Designed for ease of use, yet powerful enough to
satisfy the most sophisticated experts. Common data entry, browsing and
control methods are used for non-trunked conventional channels, trunking
talkgroups, search configurations and Spectrum Sweeper setups. The radio
grows with you - you can start out
with a small, easy to manage
configuration, then expand it whenever you need
to. |
| 3. |
Powerful and Flexible Scan List
Functionality – Allows you to arrange, group and scan objects
according to your preference, with no limit to the number or types of
objects in a Scan List, and no limit to the number of Scan Lists an object
can be a member of. |
| 4. |
Menu Driven Programming with Context
Sensitive Help - Each menu item provides a few lines of help text that
provide assistance with programming and using the
scanner. |
| 5. |
Upgradeable CPU and DSP Firmware -
You can easily keep your radio current with software enhancements as they
become available with free upgrades from our
website! |
| 6. |
Flexible Free-Form Memory
Organization - Memory is assigned as objects are created using a
sophisticated internal file management system. You are not constrained to
traditional bank/channel scanner memory layouts. No memory is wasted as a
result of bank/channel programming constraints. The scanner has sufficient
main memory capacity to store over 1,800
conventional channels,
trunking talkgroups, search configurations and Spectrum Sweeper objects in
any combination, providing ample capacity for more sophisticated hobbyists
and professionals while keeping the database size manageable for
beginners. |
| 7. |
GRE's Exclusive V-Scanner Technology
- Allows you to save complete radio configurations within the radio, for
recall into main memory as needed in the field. This is similar to having
a laptop computer and programming software available anytime. You can use
V-Scanners to store configurations for different geographical areas or
usage styles. Twenty-one V-Scanner Folders are provided, each capable of
storing over 1,800 objects. Total memory capacity of
main memory
combined with V-Scanners is over 39,600 (1,800+37,800)
objects! |
| 8. |
Multi-System Trunking - Scans most
common trunked radio system signaling formats, including Motorola, EDACS
Standard, EDACS Narrow, LTR and P25 trunked radio networks. Talkgroup call
and individual call monitoring are supported. Supports trunking operation
in virtually any land mobile radio band, including 700 MHz and the new
Federal 380 MHz band! |
| 9. |
P25 NAC Functionality - Much like
CTCSS and DCS with analog signals, P25 Network Access Code (NAC) is used
to provide selective squelch operation on conventional P25 digital
channels. GRE's PSR-500 Advanced Digital Scanner will detect the NAC that
is being used on a P25 conventional digital channel, and will allow you to
program NAC codes to block transmissions that do not have a matching NAC,
including analog traffic on the same frequency! |
| 10. |
Remote Control Capability - Can be
used with third party application software to remotely control the scanner
from a personal computer. |
| 11. |
Exclusive ALERT LED - Programmable
tri-color LED can be configured to illuminate or flash when certain
objects are active. Eight user-defined colors and brightness levels can be
specified from thousands of possible combinations. Provides visual alerts
when certain objects are active, e.g., blue can be used to signal activity
on a primary police call, red for fire, etc." |
| 12. |
Audible alarms - Programmable
audible alarms can be configured to sound when certain objects are active.
Can be used in conjunction with, or separately from, the ALERT LED
described above. |
| 13. |
GRE's Exclusive Automatic Adaptive
Digital Tracking - When monitoring Motorola and P25 digital systems,
instantly adapts the digital decoder to the digital modulation format of
the transmitted signal, then analyzes the digital signal 50 times each
second and adapts to any subtle changes caused by multipath or fading. No
cumbersome manual adjustments are required. |
| 14. |
GRE's Exclusive Digital AGC -
Instantly compensates for low audio levels that are very common on digital
systems. The radio is easier to listen to, and provides you with a more
enjoyable scanning experience. |
| 15. |
The Best Subaudible Squelch Decoder in
the Scanning Industry - CTCSS and DCS subaudible squelch coding is
processed by the same powerful DSP chip that is used for P25 digital
decoding. Provides fast and reliable decoding of subaudible squelch
signaling with squelch tail elimination. |
| 16. |
High Speed PC Interface - Uses GRE's
30-3290 USB cable in full duplex mode at 6 times the speed of previous
scanner models for PC transfer and 8 times the speed of previous models
for radio-to-radio cloning. |
| 17. |
Powerful Spectrum Sweeper - Quickly
sweeps the scanner's frequency ranges for transmissions from nearby
transmitters. |
| 18. |
Real-time Signal Strength Indicator
- Shows relative strength of received
signals. |
| 19. |
Trunking Control Data Output -
Streams decoded trunking control data from your PSR-500 to a personal
computer for use with popular third party trunking control channel
monitoring software. No slicer needed! Also streams NOAA weather radio
SAME alert data! |
| 20. |
High Contrast LCD Display - Provides
one row of dedicated icons, and four rows of 16 characters for programming
and scanning operations. |
| 21. |
SAME and All Hazards Weather
Alerting - GRE's PSR-500 Advanced Digital Scanner can operate in
dedicated SAME weather alerting mode, and alert you to severe weather and
other hazards in the specific area(s) that you select, or, the scanner can
check your local NOAA weather frequency periodically, even while scanning,
and alert you when an All Hazards alert
occurs. |
| 22. |
SKYWARN Storm Spotter Functionality
– Provides instant, one button access to frequencies used by storm
spotter networks. You can monitor storm conditions as they occur, and
become aware of dangerous conditions before the media or emergency
management officials are able to announce them to the general
public. |
| 23. |
Sleek, Compact Case Design - Has a
Large Speaker for adequate volume in most environments, and is designed
for one-handed operation for ease of
use |
