Note

: The delay periods are as follows:

•  None: Delay feature off

•  1 sec.: Delays for 1 sec. before re-scanning

•  2 sec.: Delays for 2 sec. before re-scanning

•  4 sec.: Delays for 4 sec. before re-scanning

•  Infinite: Stays on until 

RSM

is pressed

•  -2 sec.: Stays for 2 sec. only before re-scanning *

•  -5 sec.: Stays for 5 sec. only before re-scanning *

•  -10 sec.: Stays for 10 sec. only before re-scanning *

*  Setting negative delay periods are useful if you are only interested in small seg-

hear 5 seconds of the conversation and then the scanner will resume scanning,
whether or not the conversation is finished.
