Reference
The ‘Monitor’ option lets you listen to a single channel for any activity, including static and
weak voice signals. The Rino series automatically squelches a frequency to filter out unwanted
noise. Using the Monitor option temporarily turns off the automatic squelch, allowing you to
hear the open channel. If you see a broken transmission symbol (see page 17), there is activity
on your selected channel, but the incoming signal does not match the Squelch Code your unit
is using. You may choose to monitor a channel if you wish to hear all the activity on a channel.
To scan or monitor a channel(s):
1. Using the THUMB STICK , highlight the ‘Scan’ or ‘Monitor’ button and then press the
THUMB STICK IN. ‘Scan’ starts searching through the available channels. ‘Monitor’ opens
the channel to listen to any radio transmissions on that channel.
2. To stop using either option, highlight the button with the THUMB STICK and press IN.
