SMARTNET/SMARTZONE FEATURES
46
channel can be programmed with one of up to three scan lists, each of
which includes up to 16 channels, one of which can be a priority channel.
The scan lists are programmable if the Scan Edit option switch is
programmed (see page 22).
Scanning is enabled/disabled by the
SCAN
option switch. In addi-
tion, channels can be programmed so that scanning automatically starts
whenever the channel is selected. Scanning is temporarily disabled and
“
S
” turns off if a channel is selected that has scanning disabled. Then
when a channel is selected again that permits scanning, it is automatically
re-enabled.
In addition to calls on channels in the scan list, pages, private calls,
and telephone calls are received while scanning. Messages on the priority
channel are received while listening to lower priority messages. However,
private and telephone calls are not interrupted by calls on the priority
channel.
Dynamic Regrouping
The dynamic regrouping feature allows a dispatcher to switch users
to a dynamically defined channel to receive an important message.
Dynamic regrouping operates as follows:
1. When this command is received, the alternating dynamic regrouping
tone sounds, the transceiver automatically changes to the regrouping
channel, and the display indicates “REGROUP” on the lower line. All
transmitting and receiving then occurs on this channel.
2. To reset all talk and announcement groups to normal so that only the
designated regrouping channel is on the dynamic group, manually
select the designated regrouping channel if you know it. If this channel
is not selected or there is no designated regrouping channel, all trans-
missions occur on the dynamically assigned group regardless of which
channel is selected, and the regrouping tone sounds each time the PTT
switch is pressed.
3. When regrouping is canceled by the dispatcher, transceiver operation
returns to normal.
