How do I program my (insert DMA Model) scanner?

The method of programming is confusing. Are there any shortcuts to make this task easier?

Only ARC125 supports the Uniden BC125AT,UBC125XLT, AE125H and UBC126 receiver in one single software package! ARC125 includes drivers for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10. Virtual control and virtual bank names! Software comes with popular church(NL) and mosque(UK) frequency files! Product Overview Battery for BC125AT, BCD325P2. Product Overview Power up to 4 cameras or Mobile Scanners from 1 adapter. Plug Diameter: 5.5 mm outer, inner 2.1 mm Convenient and cost effective.

The manual is very hard to read/confusing/worthless. Are there any better ones?


Welcome to the Programming Your Uniden Scanner article. At some point, we all end up scratching our heads, and wishing there were an easier wayto program our scanners, particularly when there is a new memory management method involved. Those that were involved with banked scanning foryears often find the new DMA scanners particularly difficult.

The links below will be a big help in getting over the hurdle. We have several shortcut articles for the first generation of Uniden's digital trunktrackers. In addition we have an article that should be helpful for those who have the BCT8 and are having trouble with programming a trunked system. We also have more detailed information on the Uniden Home Patrol and its companion Sentinel program. We also have user's guides for programming scanners using software.

Most newer PCs have no serial ports, so you need to make the connection between the scanner and PC via an USB device.Please see our Connecting scanners via USB article for more information and tips on how to set this up properly.

Reviews, etc

  • This is a fantastic scanner for its class, similar in design and function to the BC72XLT, BC92XLT and BC95XLT series of scanners, with a vastly improved set of features and narrow-band support. This is your best buy for a non-digital, non-trunking scanner; Made in 2012. Owner for 1+ years.
  • Critique: Incorrectly includes common U.S. Business Band itinerant frequencies in the FRS/GMRS/MURS service bank without mention in the manual. (Ch28: 'Red Dot' 151.6250 MHz, Ch29: 'Brown Dot' 464.5000 MHz, Ch30: 'Yellow Dot' 464.5500 MHz, Ch31: 'Silver Star' 467.8500 MHz, Ch32: 'Gold Star' 467.8750 MHz, Ch33: 'Red Star' 467.9000 MHz, Ch34: 'Blue Star' 467.9250 MHz)
  • Critique: Adjusting squelch requires several button pushes and knob twists. Adjusting volume requires a button push and knob twist. Wish there were options to configure this. My only real complaint.
