I walk you through how to use Sentinel to program your Uniden BCD436HP, BCD536HP, SDS100 and SDS200. I show you how to manually enter in Frequencies and how to use the built in database.

For the life of me I don’t understand how you could keep track of who is who on the quick keys. Maybe you keep a cheat sheet? Also a quick tip would be to expand or full screen those windows and save yourself from sliding left right, up, down and see the whole thing at once.

Hi. As far as remembering who is who. I've had scanners from back in the day where you only saw the frequencies with no names and had banks and channel numbers. I had to remember that I couldn't always keep a cheat sheet on me, especially while working. I'll try to expand the program windows in the next video that I've been trying to make since this one. Thank you for watching and commenting.

A good follow up would be how to edit a talkgroup or frequency. I use this programming method all the time, don't append or wait for database updates for a week.

How do you get a version of sentinel that will connect to the bcd160dn scanner, tried everything, did hook up to allow firmware update, so it is communicating.

You make it look easy, is there a dumb down way to select the citys you want to listen to? I am so computer stupid lol

Good instructions, but you don't actually cover the connection between your scanner and Sentinel. My Sentinel software no longer see's my BCD436. I've tried various ports to no avail. I've checked my ports with other equipment and there isn't any issues. I also tried reinstalling Sentinel several times, no luck.

Are you putting it into mass storage mode? Have you tried using an SD card reader?

So, is there a thing similar to the Radio Shack PRO 107 OR 197'S "Wildcard"? Where you would park on a trunking control frequency, and whatever voice came up would list talkgroup ID...

I got s.ome of it figured out. Our current radio system is unlisted so I'm in the process of figuring out control channels and talk groups. But thank you for the offer

626hawkeye I am just getting back in to doing scanners and had help getting the 536 hp programed but I a lost how to do this. I would like to make a back up just incase. I would like to copy over for my mom and dad they have a home patrol 2 and like to copy my list. Can you help me?

@626hawkeye 10 ай бұрын

I know of a way to do it, but I don't know fully how to do it if that makes sense? I've read about how it's done, but I've never done it in practice.

@andynellesen1525 10 ай бұрын

Well I may be dumb cause I am not sure how to add more channels to the scanner and not really sure how to use the sintanl program. I know once I get it I am sure that I am just not getting the concept of the scanner on how to add. Any thoughts on this and thanks for getting back to me! @@626hawkeye

NFM is narrow fm not new fm

Yeah I know for some reason I keep saying New FM instead of Narrow. I do it all the time.

Good morning. I have not been able to find any information on how to properly "unmount" or "eject" the SDS200 from my laptop after I do firmware and database updates. I am hoping you can provide some guidance. The owners manual says to just turn off the scanner and then disconnect the micro USB. Is that correct or are there any other steps to take to avoid corrupting the card? Thank you

@626hawkeye 10 ай бұрын

That sounds correct. I may have to do a video on this topic.
