Test modes for Uniden scanners.

==Introduction==
 +
This page will be used to show the effects of various key combinations that result in previously-undocumented functions. Please document those that are '''not''' found in the owner's guide or the Easier to Read guides
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==Before We Begin==
 +
* The usual warnings apply; RR is not responsible if you damage your scanner, use at your own risk, etc.
 +
* Some of these cause the scanner to lock up. If this happens remove the battery / power, put it back in then turn it back on. Make sure your scanner is '''backed up''' using your software of choice before you do any of this.
 +
* You can find support to discuss these at the {{Forum|uniden-tech-support.248|Uniden Tech Support}}
 +
 
 +
 
 +
==Undocumented Keystrokes==
 +
* [[Uniden Scanner Test Modes for the original DMA scanners]]
 +
* [[Uniden Scanner Test Modes for the XT and P2 scanners]]
 +
* [[Uniden Scanner Test Modes for the HP Series scanners]]
  
To enter a test mode, hold the indicated keys while powering-on the scanner.
 
  
In the column for each scanner model, an '''X''' will be in the row corresponding to each test verified to work for that scanner model.  If you verify that a test works for a scanner model, please update this page.

  • Some of these cause the scanner to lock up. If this happens remove the battery / power, put it back in then turn it back on. Make sure your scanner is backed up using your software of choice before you do any of this.
