channels in the radio. If you leave this option unchecked then ScanControl will only

import as many channels as are available in the chosen destination bank.

o Def Tag (Channels) – If no Frequency Tag column is identified for importation this field

allows the user to set a default alphanumeric tag for all the imported frequencies.

o Starting SLoc – Select the starting ScanList location in the destination bank for the

import. This list box is automatically filled with the available scanlist locations based on

the bank selected.

o SLoc Spillover - Check this box if you want to allow the talkgroup data being imported

to “spillover” into subsequent ScanLists. Let’s say you want to import 50 talkgroup IDs.

Uniden radios hold 10 talkgroup IDs per ScanList. By checking this option you are

telling ScanControl to allow all the data to be imported. All 50 talkgroup IDs will go into

several ScanLists starting at the designated Starting SLoc (ScanList location) and

continuing into the next ScanList or ScanLists. The only limit will be the maximum

number of ScanList locations per bank (100 in this case). If you leave this option

unchecked then ScanControl will only import as many talkgroup IDs as there are

locations available in the chosen ScanList.

o Def Tag (Talkgroups) – If no Talkgroup Tag column is identified for importation this

field allows the user to set a default alphanumeric tag for all the imported Talkgroup IDs.

• Operation Controls:

o Help Button – Click to open this Help file.

o Reset Button – Click to reset all settings on the screen back to their defaults.

o Cancel Button – Click to cancel the CSV Import and return to the Import Data Screen.

o Import Button – Click to perform the data import. ScanControl will alert the user that

data may be overwritten by performing the import and also if any limits (channel or

scanlist locations) have been exceeded by the configured data mapping.

As an example the Step by Step instructions below illustrate how to use the Import CSV File Data

screen:

1. Press 'Import Data Files' on the Main ScanControl screen.

2. On the 'Import Data Files' screen make sure ‘CSV File (Excel & Others)’ is selected.

3. Choose the desired CSV file. If you don't see the file, make sure that the correct device and

directory are chosen in the main window. The CSV Import mode looks for files with the .CSV

and .TXT extensions. If your file has some other extension then check the 'Disp(lay) all file

types' checkbox to see all files.

4. Double click on the filename you want to import so the name appears in the ‘Filename’ selection

box.

5. Press the 'Map CSV' button to open the Import CSV File Data screen. (See above)

6. The '1. File Contents' window tells ScanControl what kind of data to expect. If you're importing

data for a conventional system, check the 'Frequencies' button. If you're importing data just to
