How to tell what the buttons do?

you need to turn up the squelch

delay is displayed when the squelch gets broken
so turn it up and scan or it will start to auto scan if you set it too auto
when a signal breaks then it stops .. and listens
you can set it to manual so when a signal is detected it will stop and listen too that frequency
if it says delay all the time then there is a problem
prob with the squelch cicruit or the control perhaps has had a knock

Right click on the ScanSnap Manager icon at the bottom right of your computer screen, go to "Scan Button Settings"

Then, go to the tab that says Paper. If you don't see it, click on details at the bottom left.

In paper, change multifeed detection to Check Length or None instead of Ultrasonic Sensor.

If this works, then the ultrasonic sensor on this scanner has failed. The only function is it detects if multiple pages go through at the same time by listening to the vibrations. Your scanner can still scan fine without it.

From your description, it sounds like your scanner is actually a BC60XLT-1, which is different from the BC60XLT. On the "dash one" the key with the key symbol is for locking and unlocking the keyboard to prevent accidental entries. Press and hold it to lock the keyboard (a key symbol will appear on the display); press and hold it again to unlock the keyboard for normal use. The LIGHT key will temporarily turn on the display backlight for night viewing. The WX key switches the scanner to monitoring of the NOAA weather channels. Pressing the WX button will result in scanning until the unit locks on to a weather channel/frequency that's in use of your area. Press the SCAN key to resume normal operation. Pressing L/O key will lockout whatever channel you are listening to. Pressing it again while stopped on that frequency will restore it to normal monitoring. Pressing PRI will set the selected channel/frequency for priority monitoring, causing the scanner to sample that frequency for activity every few seconds, and to lock onto it if activity is detected. Pressing the key again, while that channel is selected, will release the priority function.

It depends a bit on the software you have installed (OS, etc). If you installed the full-featured software before connecting the all-in-one to your computer, you can scan immediately from the computer. For Windows, open the HP Solution Center (by double-clicking on the icon or Start > All Programs > HP folder > HP Solution Center). Put your document to be scanned face down on the scanner glass and close the lid (ADF pages go face up, top edge first). Click the tab in the Solution Center for your HP product (if you have more than one) and click Scan Picture or Scan Document as appropriate. Set the scanner settings in the pop-up window if needed. Click Scan to start the scan. To use the buttons on the scanner, you need to set the destinations for the buttons in the HP Solution Center (Scan to destination for example) and have the HP monitor running on your computer (this listens to the buttons).

Scanners work with bi-directional communication so USB hubs, print servers or bad cables can result in the printer functions working but not the scanner.

If you install the generic OS driver (by connecting the all in one to the computer before installing the software), the printer will work but the scanner will functions will be limited (the scanner buttons will not work but other functions will depend on the OS). Windows XP can acquire scans in Paint (File > From Camera or Scanner). Windows Vista and Win7 add Windows Fax and Scan which will also acquire scans (not in all versions of Vista). Vista also can acquire scans with Windows Photo Gallery.

The printer works similarly with the Mac OS but hte names may be different.

I hope this helps.

I couldn't locate a manual for you, but this vintage 10-channel unit is fairly simple to operate.

Start by turning the unit on with the POWER button.
Push the MANUAL button.
Push MANUAL until you see the Channel you want to enter the frequency in -i.e: Ch 1, Ch 2, etc.
Enter the frequency with all the digits needed - i.e: 44.94 / 44.98 / 154.965 / 155.610 etc
Push the ENTER button. The frequency will now be in the Channel "Ch" you chose.


While still in the manual mode - go the the channel you expect to listen to most - then push "DELAY/HOLD". This will hold the scan so you will get the reply from the dispatch unit to the receiving unit.You can set this feature on any or all of the ten channels.

Push the "LOCK" button to lock out channels you no longer want to listen to, or that you want to ignore temporarily.

Sounds like you may have accidentally pressed the "LOCK" button. If there's a "key" icon showing, press the LOCK button at the bottom left of your keyboard, and hold it in until the icon disappears. In case you need it, here is a link to the operating manual for your scanner:

There is no clock function on the BC92XLT. To program a frequency, power the scanner ON, then press HOLD to stop scanning. Next, enter the channel number that you wish to program (01, 02, etc.). Push FUNC, then PGM, then enter the frequency you wish to program, including the decimal point (example, 156.075). Press the E key to complete the entry.

First set the squelch (gets rid of the hissing noise and allows the radio to scan)
to do this....

On the side are 2 buttons, the bottom one is monitor.
press and hold then look at the display,
turn the top dial until "AUTO" appears,

The squelch should now keep the radio quiet.

Now the tuning step..
You need to set this because if your radio was on 450.000 and you wanted to listen to 450.012.5 you would miss it if your radio was making 000.025 "steps". IE you would need 12.5 steps. This is the most common step used by ambulance etc in the UK, you will need to check local band plans.
Stick with 12.5 and you should get most stuff on VHF / UHF.
For airband 12.5 will get most stuff, but some is now changing to 8.33.
For HF (below) 136 Mhz I'd use 5

To set the step....

On the front there are 4 big buttons.
press [V/M.S.MW.SKIP] to select VFO mode,
then press [BAND.LOCK] to select the band you want to listen to,
then press [TS.SET] to enter the step
turn the dial to select your step (stick with 12.5 for now)
press [TS.SET] to exit back to VFO mode



To scan...

First set the scan type...
On the front there are 4 big buttons.
Press and hold the one that says [MODE.SCAN] for 2 seconds and look at the display,
turn the top dial until the screen reads ALL,
press [MODE.SCAN] again and the radio should start to scan with the 12.5 steps you set earlier.
If you want to change scan direction, just turn the top dial.
If you want to stop the scan, just press [MODE.SCAN].

When you hear something interesting, make a note of the frequency on the display.

To set memories (store frequencies).....

On the front there are 4 big buttons.
press [V/M.S.MW.SKIP] to select VFO mode,

to get close to the frequency you made a note of, press [BAND.LOCK]
Then set the actual frequency with the top dial,
press and hold [V/M.S.MW.SKIP] for 2 seconds to select memory write mode (1 short and 1 long beep)
turn the top dial to select which channel you would like to overwrite. Start with 01.
press [V/M.S.MW.SKIP] for 2 seconds. ( 3 beeps )

Thats it!

Any more problems just post on here and either me or someone else will help.
