PERATION
Scanning allows the user to select any message
with the touch of a single external switch. Two-message,
three-message, four-message, and ten-message scanning
can be selected. See page 35 above for message configu-
ration. There are two kinds of scanning: visual and
auditory scanning. Related to scanning is sequential
messaging which is discussed later. There are four ways
to select messages when using scanning: Positive
scanning selection, Inverse scanning selection, Step
scanning selection, and Two Button scanning selection.
An external switch must be plugged into the jack marked
SCAN to activate scanning.
