NORMAL MODE WITH WEATHER ALERT
If you activate Weather Alert ( MENU /
RADIO SETUP
/WX Alert) while operating
in Normal mode, the radio checks the most recently
used weather channel every seven seconds. If it detects
a weather or other hazard alert, it will switch to that weather
channel. (If you are actively transmitting, the radio waits until you
finish your transmission before checking the weather channel.)
NORMAL MODE WITH TRIPLE WATCH OR DUAL WATCH
If you activate Triple Watch while operating in Normal mode ( MENU /
RADIO SETUP
/Dual/
Tri Watch/Triple) , the radio checks the priority and second priority channels every few
seconds along with the current marine channel. With Dual Watch turned on, the radio only
checks the priority channel and the current marine channel. The radio will not check either
of the priority channels while you are actively transmitting; it waits until your transmission is
finished and then checks the channels.
Scan
There are two Scan modes - Priority and Memory.
SCAN/PRIORITY MODE
Priority mode scans through the channels saved into memory and then the priority channel
[set in the Main menu (see page E-10)]. For example: Memory Channel 1 --> Priority
Channel --> Memory Channel 2 --> Priority Channel --> etc.
SCAN/PRIORITY MODE WITH WEATHER ALERT ON
If Weather Alert is turned on with Priority mode, the radio alternately scans through the
channels saved into memory and the priority channel (Memory Channel 1 --> Priority
Channel --> Memory Channel 2 --> Priority Channel --> Memory Channel X ) and then
scans the most recently used Weather channel.
SCAN/MEMORY MODE
You can save any channel into memory and then use Scan mode/Memory Scan to monitor
those channels from lowest to highest. If the radio detects a signal on a channel, it stays on
that channel as long as the signal is received; when the signal stops, the radio continues
scanning.
