Scan
Use this to key to enable scan mode and also to edit systems to be
scanned (if allowed for the system in use – see the User Edit field in
the
“Conv.”
programming screen). Use this key to enable or disable
the radio’s system scan function.
The
Scan
key is also used to toggle whether a system is scanned. If the
User Edit field in the
“Conv.”
programming screen has been enabled
for a system and the system is not in scan mode, you can select which
systems to scan or not scan. Select the targeted system, press and hold
the
Scan
key down until you see “SCAN ADD” or “SCAN DEL”.
This adds or deletes the system from being scanned. A steady “S” icon
indicates that the system is in the scan list. No “S” icon indicates that it
has been removed. A blinking “S” indicates scan mode is active.

Nuisance
Delete
This is useful to temporarily remove non-essential systems from being
scanned. Cycling radio power or changing systems will clear this
setting.

Talk Around
If the radio has another Conventional or LTR system programmed into
it, this key would be used to quickly switch to that system for localized
or other use.

Set aside for custom use such as for a
Phone
or
Priority
key.

Monitor
Use this to toggle the radio in and out of Monitor mode (a “Speaker
Icon” will be displayed when mode is enabled). This disables CTCSS
or DTCS tone code squelch. This is useful for monitoring frequency
activity by bypassing any active coded squelch.
System

N/A

you reach the “limit” and cycle to the “top” or “bottom” of the list.
