This feature allows you to monitor all channels automatically for valid
signals. While scanning, you can transmit and receive. When a signal is
received, the scan is interrupted and will return to scan mode 5 seconds
after reception is terminated.

inoperative. The scan mode will reduce the overall battery life
since the battery save function is overridden.

operates to find an active main channel.

automatically resume scanning approximately 5 seconds after the
communication is completed.
- If there is no activity and you want to leave the scan mode, press the
SCAN button momentarily and the unit will return to normal operation;
