Do you want to better understand object-oriented programming? In this episode, Phil explains how object-oriented programming differs from just using a scanner with hard coded memory and also Uniden’s DMA memory.    What You Need To Know Object-oriented scanning allows you to create scan lists as small or as large as you need without wasting memory on your scanner. Memory space on a scanner is based on blocks, and trunking, talk spaces, etc., each take up varying numbers of blocks. Scan lists are thought of in object-oriented scanners as banks. These scanners have dynamic memory, where instead of programming a frequency twice in two separate scan lists, you are able to program it once in two locations. Trunking in object-oriented scanning requires separate lists for sites. When talk groups are assigned to a scan list that means the scanner recognizes them as an object and knows it needs to monitor it. Scan lists in object-oriented scanners can handle both conventional and trunk systems in the same list. You can mix and match analog and digital as well. Object-oriented scanners allow you to have v-scanners, which we will talk about on a future podcast.
