without having to press the
SYS
or
GRP
keys or leaving the
scan mode.
"Home" System and Group
The "Home" system and group are the system and group in
which you require priority to transmit on. This is usually the
system and group on which you will receive and transmit
most of your calls.
When you press the
P-T-T
bar on the microphone during
scanning (i.e.
"IN SCAN"
appears in the display) your
TM-4800 radio will always transmit on the "Home" system
and group. This applies whether scanning has stopped for an
incoming call or not.
Scan Resume Delay
After a message is received or transmitted in the scan mode,
there is a delay period of 1-7 seconds before scanning
resumes. The exact length of this delay is programmed by
your Dealer. When a message is received, this delay allows
you to respond without having to change the selected system
and group. If you do not respond until after scanning
resumes (the words
"IN SCAN"
reappear in display),
another call may be received and the response may not
occur on the desired system or group.
NOTE:
If a "Home" system and group is programmed for
scanning, then the above scan resume delay does not allow
you to respond to the incoming call. Your transmission will
always be on your programmed "Home" system and group.
