3.4 Scan Channel Groups

The DP-6 can automatically control radio equipment through chan-
nel scanning. The radio equipment scans a number of channels
(according to your selection), stopping when your own ID code is
detected in an incoming signal. The transmitter is tuned to the cor-
responding transmitter frequency, the communication link is es-
tablished and the traffic is automatically exchanged. Scanning
resumes once the link is disconnected.

You may store a maximum of 10 scan groups, 20 channels per
group. Note that scanning is only possible in the ARQ and FEC
modes.
