scan programming options include a fixed priority-
one channel or the selected channel as the priority-
one channel.
The radio may be programmed to scan only the
channels in the current mode or it may be pro-
grammed to scan across modes.
The radio will receive clear, digital or private
messages on each scanned channel depending on
how each channel is programmed.
Scan rate will vary depending upon the number
of channels on the scan list and whether or not the
radio is programmed to scan for Channel Guard.
Fewer channels will result in a faster scan rate. All
scan functions are retained in memory when the
battery pack is removed.
The radio will not scan when the emergency
mode is enabled ("EMG" status flag is on).
Adding Channels To And Deleting Channels
From The Scan List
If the "SCAN A/D" menu is programmed, chan-
nels may be added to and deleted from the scan list
of each mode as follows:
1. Select the desired mode and channel. If the
selected channel is currently on the list, the
"S" status flag will be on.
2. Press the MENU button until "SCAN A/D" is
displayed.
3. Press the SEL button until the desired pri-
ority indicator appears: "S" for non-priority,
"2" for priority-two, "1" for a priority-one, or
no indicator to remove the channel from the
scan list. If a new priority channel is se-
lected the previous corresponding priority
channel will become a non-priority scan
channel. One of the following messages
may be momentarily displayed:
•
"SCAN DIS" - The radio is not programmed to
scan.
•
"FIXED P1" - A priority-one channel has been
programmed into the radio. A
new priority-one channel can not
be selected.
•
"FIXD LST" - A fixed scan list is programmed
into the radio. It is not possible to
change the list without repro-
gramming the radio.
