talkgroup before resuming scan operation. Customizing the
trunked ID delay may be useful if you are missing a lot of
reply traffi c on a particular system. We recommend starting
with the default value of 2.0 seconds.
1. While in the desired ID list, press
FUNC
, and then
./DELAY
.
2. Press
e
or
d
to select None, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5,
or 4.0 seconds.
3. Press
ENT
.
• Most Motorola trunking systems include a “hang time”
where the channel remains assigned to a talkgroup for
a short period after the user unkeys the microphone.
This hang time is typically 1.5 seconds but can vary
among different systems. The scanner’s trunked delay
function begins after this hang time expires. Therefore,
the total amount of delay present after a user unkeys the
microphone equals the trunking system hang time, plus
any trunked ID delay programmed into the scanner. For
example, if you wish to wait a total of two seconds for
a reply trunked call, and the system you are monitoring
is using 1.5 seconds of hang time, you should set the
trunked delay for that system to 0.5 seconds. EDACS
systems do not employ hang time.
• Conventional channel delay is fi xed at 2 seconds and is
controlled independently of trunked ID delay. Refer to
“Using Delay” on Page 33 for more information.
