H273 - Operator Selectable Scan

Selecting this option will allow you to enter or modify a unique scan list, using the keypad on the
radio, without the aid of the RSS. You can select this option at the same time as option H344 (mode
slaved scan). If both types of scan are present in your radio, you would choose the type of scan
that you want to activate by using the three control keys on the keypad. In this option, the number
of priority channels (1 or 2) and the designated transmit channel will be user programmable. This
option allows you to enter one scan list with 15 entries; this list includes 2 priority channels, 12 non-
priority channels, and 1 entry for the designated transmit channel. This option is not offered for
SABER II radios because the full keypad is not available in those models.

NOTE: If MDC is enabled on the radio and priority scan is used, DOS Muting will not work properly
causing the radio to unsquelch at times during MDC transmissions. This occurs whether scan is
running in the radio or not.

H344 - Mode Slaved Scan

(for SABER II.8, SABER III)

Selecting this option will give you 10 scan lists with 13 entries per scan list. The 13 entries include 2
priority channels, 10 non-priority channels and 1 optional entry for designated transmit channel.
The two priority channels will be scanned more often than the non-priority channels and will
continue to be scanned even if a lower priority channel is currently being monitored. If both priority
channels are being used, the channel with priority 1 status will be able to override the channel with
priority 2 status such that the priority 1 channel will continue to be scanned even if the priority 2
channel is active. The priority 2 channel will not be scanned if the scanner is locked on the priority 1
channel. In any scan list it will be possible to omit either or both of the priority channels. For this
type of scan, each channel in the radio points to one of the scan lists, so you can assign a different
scan sequence to each channel. All channels and scan lists available in this option are factory
programmed, but can be changed with the Radio Service Software.

2nd Fixed Priority

Standard in the radio is fixed first priority and a floating second priority. This option is available to
you to make the second priority status until you transmit on another channel while the radio is
scanning with no activity. A second fixed priority can not be offered along with floating priority since
the floating priority already assumes 2nd priority status. At scan initialization the floating priority
channel will be the same as the preassigned transmit channel until you transmit on some other
channel. For each scan list the preassigned transmit channel will always be the channel on which
the radio was, when scan was entered. Disable this function if you want second floating priority.

Nuisance Mode Delete

This option allows you to temporarily delete non-priority channels from the scan list that are
constantly busy which may cause the scanner to be constantly locked onto a channel. A channel
deleted using this option will remain deleted until scan is aborted. When scan is processed again,
all channels which were previously deleted will be replaced. You can activate this feature by using
the SELECT and ENTER keys while the radio is locked onto the channel that is to be deleted from
the scan list. This option is incompatible with autoscan.

Scroll Scan List

This option allows you to view which channels are programmed into each scan list. Use MENU key
to select scroll menu and press the SELECT key to scroll through the entire list.
