If the scanner cannot detect a control channel on an EDACS or Motorola system, it immediately moves to the next site or
system. The scanner always scans LTR or SCAT systems for at least 1 second to check for current activity.
•
If you select 0 and the control channel is received, the scanner stays on the system for a minimal time (only long enough to
check current system activity).
•
The default setting is 2 seconds for each system.
•
The scanner moves to the next system after the hold time expires, any current transmission ends, and the channel delay
time expires.
