SCAN OPERATION
The display indicates scan operation by flashing the
SCN
annunciator.
Scan operates only while the radio is not transmitting. The radio
checks for signals on channels in the preset Scan List, as well as the
channel selected by the Channel Selector knob.
When a signal is detected, scanning stops and the message is
received. The received channel is shown in place of the transmit
channel.
Once the signal ends, the radio continues to monitor the channel for
the preset scan delay time before it resumes scanning.
SCAN CHANNEL GUARD CHANNELS
When a signal is detected, scanning stops while the radio checks for
the proper Channel Guard value. If the signal contains the proper
Channel Guard value, the radio receives the message. Otherwise, the
radio resumes scanning immediately.
NUISANCE CHANNEL DELETE
If your radio is programmed for Nuisance Channel Delete and Channel
Scan is assigned to a top toggle switch, a Nuisance Channel can be
temporarily removed from the Scan List by sliding the switch down
momentarily and then back up.
If Channel Scan is assigned to a button, a long press of the button will
temporarily delete the nuisance channel.
11 BK Radio
TRANSMIT WITH SCAN ON
When scan is enabled, the radio transmits on the channel selected by
the Channel Selector knob unless Talkback Scan is enabled or Priority
Scan is enabled (see Priority Scan operation).
1.
Select a transmit channel by turning the Channel Selector knob.
2. Press and hold the PTT switch and talk in a normal voice.
When the PTT switch is released, the radio continues to monitor the
selected channel for the preset scan delay time before it resumes
scanning.
TALKBACK SCAN
If your radio is programmed for Talkback Scan, press PTT while a
channel is active or while scan delay time remains. You will be
responding on the transmit frequency of the received channel.
Talkback Scan will not work if Priority Scan is also on and your radio is
programmed to always transmit on the Priority 1 channel.
GROUP SCAN
Channels on each “Channel Scan List” in groups on the “Group Scan
List” are scanned sequentially. The selected group is always scanned
when Group Scan is enabled, even if that group is not on the Group
Scan List.
