Priority Scan
Priority scan is available when your dealer has programmed
Normal
or
Modify
Scan Selection
. Use the menu function to
select PRI scan mode.
The default user selection is PRI scan mode.
If enabled in programming, you may assign a second priority
channel before starting scan. Select the desired second priority
channel using the channel selector, then press and hold the
SCAN button for two seconds. The channel display will flash
when a second priority channel is displayed.
Press and release SCAN to activate Priority scan. The channel
selected when scan is started will be assigned as the first priority
channel. The priority channel(s) will be checked more often than
the other channels in the scan list. While scanning in Priority
scan mode, the radio will display “---“ and the PRI icon. If activity
is detected on a channel, the radio will pause scan and display
that channel. While stopped on a non-priority channel, the radio
will continue to check for activity on the priority channel(s). This
is called
priority channel lookback
, and the receive audio from
the non-priority channel will be briefly interrupted while priority
lookback occurs. While the radio is stopped on a non-priority
channel it may be deleted from the scan list by briefly pressing
the A/D button. This is the
nuisance channel delete
function. The
priority channel(s) can not be deleted from the scan list. To
resume scanning at the next channel in the scan list, without
deleting the channel, rotate the channel/menu knob clockwise.
In Priority scan mode the scan escape function may have been
enabled by your dealer or communications coordinator. To
temporarily suspend scan and switch to the last received
channel, press and release the AUX button. When finished
operating on the last received channel, press and release the
AUX button again to resume scan operation. The priority channel
selections will not be changed by the scan escape function.
