Scan On/Off
You can enter scan mode through any of the following two methods:
(1) Key Operation
Press the programmed
Scan
key to enter scan mode, provided that there’re no less than
2 members in the scan list. Press the
Scan
key again or power off to exit.
(2) Auto
If Auto Scan is enabled for a channel, the radio will automatically enter scan mode when it
is switched to this channel. When it is switched to other channels or powers off, the radio
will exit from scan mode.
Talk Back
This option defines whether users can talk back on the channel where scanning pauses.
When the option is checked, users can do so. If the scanning does not pause on any
channel, users may talk back on the predefined channel.
Priority Channel Scan
This function enables users to scan the most frequently used channel so that messages
will not be missed. The priority channel is programmed by the dealer via programming
software. Contact your dealer for details. Note: Even though the radio remains on a
non-priority channel, activities on the priority channel are still under monitoring. The radio
will switch to the priority channel once any activity is detected.
