How do I confirm that my radio is in remote mode?

I use MENU_3_5 and choose baud rate and PRESS _E

Should I then see something that indicates the radio is in remote mode?

No, there is no response or indication from the scanner display.
The software, like ARC 250 will either confirm or not confirm when "Auto
Detect" is attempted.
Or if Cloning to another scanner and it's successful.
A trial (30 day ) version of ARC 250 can be obtained here

Hi Clark, thanks for the reply. I have ARC250 but it's not detecting the
connection. I checked my serial ports and they are supposedly working
correctly however no joy.

It may be the cable but I've used it in the past with success although
it's been probably a few years since I've programmed the radio.

Any other thoughts, anyone?

At one time, I did have the jack break. I sent it to Uniden for a
successful repair.
In the software, did you assign the correct com port or just let the
software try to find it ?
Just make sure the baud rate is the same for both scanner and software.

I believe the software is not compatible with Win 7 pr 8 but Win XP should work. Check on that possibility first. that's my only suggestion.

I use ARC 250 Pro with no problems on my Windows 7 laptop and my Vista desktop.

Correct. I have the Uniden software and it worked great in XP, but won’t work in 7.
