VX-537 Operating Manual
Follow-Me Scan
“Follow-Me” Scan feature checks a User-assigned Priority Channel reg-
ularly as you scan the other channels. Thus, if only Channels 1, 3, and 5
(of the 8 available channels) are designated for “Scanning,” the user may
nonetheless assign Channel 2 as the “User-assigned” Priority Channel
via the “Follow-Me” feature.
To activate “Follow-Me” scanning, first select the channel you want
to designate as the “User-Assigned Priority Channel” and Switch the
Toggle
switch to the assigned position. Then turn the
CH
selector
knob to the “Scanning Start” channel which has been programmed by
your dealer to activate the scanner. When the scanner stops on an “Ac-
tive” channel, the User-assigned Priority Channel will automatically be
checked every few seconds; if activity is found on the User-assigned Pri-
ority Channel, the radio will switch between it and the Dealer-Assigned
Priority Channel, if any.
Follow-Me DW
To set up a “Dual Watch” frequency pair using the “Follow-Me” feature,
select a channel using the
CH
selector knob. Now press the assigned
Soft
key; pressing the assigned
Soft
key locks the current channel as
the User-assigned Priority Channel. Now rotate the
CH
selector knob to
another channel (not the “Scanning Start” channel). Your radio will now
switch back-and-forth between the currently-selected channel (shown on
the
CH
selector knob) and the User-assigned Priority Channel.
During “Follow-Me” scanning (after you have pressed the key), you
can set up the “Dual Watch” feature by rotating the
CH
selector knob
to another channel. The radio will then scan back and forth between the
original User-assigned Priority Channel and the newly-selected channel.
The Priority Channel you have assigned (before pressing the key) will be
retained in memory until you change it.
