CAN
Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver
channels. When scanning, the transceiver checks for a signal
on each channel and only stops if a signal is present.
If the QT/DQT matches, the transceiver stops at the channel
and opens the squelch so you can listen to the call. If the
QT/DQT does not match, the call is ignored and scanning
continues.
Note:
You can only use Scan if there are at least 2 channels
available on your transceiver that are not locked out of Scan.
To start scanning, momentarily press the key programmed as
either
Scan
or
Scan + Temporary Delete
.
•
The LED indicator flashes green and scanning starts from the
current channel and ascends through the channel numbers.
•
When a signal is detected on a channel and the QT/DQT
matches, scan pauses at that channel and the LED indicator
lights green.
•
When the signal is no longer present, scanning continues after
3 seconds (default).
To end Scan, press the
Scan
or
Scan + Temporary Delete
key again.
■
Priority Scan
The Priority channel is a channel that is given first priority
to while scanning. The Priority channel is set by your
dealer.
During Scan, the transceiver will automatically change to
the Priority channel when a call is received on it, even if
a call is already being received on any of the other
channels.
