1) Start of the scan function
When you turn the rotary channel selector on position [S] ( = 16 ) the unit runs through all chan-
nels which your dealer has selected for the scan function ( scanning list ). If there is a radio
operator signal on one channel which is strong enough to open the squelch, the scan function
will pause on that channel. You can hear the partner station but the scan remains active.
2) End of the scan function
When you turn the rotary channel selector on a position between 1 and 15 the scan function is
not active.
3) Restart of the scan function
Your dealer can select between two conditions under which the scan function restarts stepping
through the scanning list when it has previously stopped on an occupied channel:
a) Time control: The scan function restarts working after a dealer-set dwell time between 0.5 and
5 s, beginning from the moment of stopping on that channel. The dwell time does not depend on
whether the channel is free or still occupied.
b) Carrier wave control: The scan function restarts working 3 s after the radio operator signal has
dropped below the squelch threshold.
4) Transmission during activated scan function
Your dealer can select one of 4 different criteria to determine the transmit frequency while the
scan function is active:
a) Selected channel: When pressing the PTT key while the scan function is active the unit trans-
mits basically on the first channel of the scanning list, i.e. the channel with the lowest channel
number.
b) Selected channel or actual channel: When the pressing of the PTT key occurs while the scan
function is stepping through the scanning list, the unit transmits on the first channel of the
scanning list. When the pressing of the PTT key occurs while the scan function is resting on
a channel, the unit transmits on this channel.
c) Prior channel: When pressing the PTT key while the scan function is active the unit transmits
basically on the prior channel, i.e. any channel of the scanning list which your dealer can select.
d) Prior channel or actual channel: When the pressing of the PTT key occurs while the scan func-
tion is stepping through the scanning list, the unit transmits on the prior channel. When the
pressing of the PTT key occurs while the scan function is resting on a channel, the unit trans-
mits on this channel.
Note: Once a channel is selected for transmit mode, you can send your entire message on this
channel. After you have released the PTT key the unit will still stay for a dealer-set dwell time
between 0.5 and 5 s on this channel, before the channel scanning is restarted again.
Auxiliary functions of the TEAM PT-2208S
These functions must be installed into your transceiver by your dealer, before you can use them.
In the description below it is assumed that the functions are active. Ask your dealer for more
details.
1) Transmit time limiter
The transmit time limiter ( = time-out-timer ) has the effect of limiting the maximum time for con-
tinuous transmitting on a channel. This transmit duration limit can be adjusted in steps between
0.5 and 5 minutes by your dealer. If the transmit time exceeds the actual transmit duration limit
during your message, the transmitter will shut off automatically, and you will hear a warning tone
in the speaker. To stop the warning tone and to reactivate the transmitter you have to release
briefly the PTT key.
