VIII. Radio Functions
Scan Modes
Scanning is a Dealer programmable feature that allows you to monitor a number of channels or channels within a
Group. Your Dealer will he lp you define a scanning mode and your cannel "scan list".
Normal Channel Scan
Once the scan list has been established, initiate scan by pressing and holding monitor
button and rotate the channel switch to scan enable channel. Then, Green LED blinks to confirm the scanning.
If a conversation is detected on any of the channels in the scan list, the radio will stop on that channel and you will
be able to hear the conversation. In normal scan, you will be able to transmit on that active channel during the
programmable scan delay time. (The scan delay time is the amount of time the radio will stay on that channel once
activity has ceased. Dealer programmable, 4 – 7 seconds is typical). The radio will resume scanning once the
scan delay time has expired, and will continue to scan until the channel is changed. The LED will flash green. In
scan mode, if power is off and on, the mode is back to the "scanning mode.
Nuisance Delete
During receiving a signal or scan delay time, if monitor button is pressed, the current receiving channel is deleted in
scan list and this deleted channel is no more scanned.
When power is off and on, the deleted channel is restored in scan list.
Priority Channel Scan
A single channel may be programmed as the "Priority" channel. The radio will constantly monitor this channel
