SCAN

Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver

channels. While scanning, the transceiver checks for a signal

on each channel and only stops on a channel if a signal is

present.
To begin scanning, press the key programmed as

Scan.

• On K2/K3/K/K/K7 model transceivers, the

icon appears on

the display.

• The channels included in the scan list are scanned.
• When a signal is detected on a channel, Scan pauses on that

channel. The transceiver will remain on the busy channel until

the signal is no longer present. When the signal “drops out”, the

transceiver will remain on the channel momentarily before Scan

resumes. This delay time is programmed by your dealer. If a

signal is received during the delay time, the transceiver will remain

on the same channel.

To stop scanning, press the

Scan key again.

Note: In order for Scan to operate, there must be at least 2

channels added to the scanning sequence. If there are less

channels than this, Scan will not operate.

If a key is programmed with the

Scan Delete function, each

channel can be locked out of the scan sequence manually.
During scan, you can temporarily remove specific channels

from the scanning sequence by selecting them and pressing

the

Scan Delete key.

• On K2/K3/K/K/K7 model transceivers, the

icon no longer

appears on the display for that channel.

• The channel is no longer scanned. However, when scanning is

ended and restarted, the channels will reset and the channel will

again be in the scanning sequence.
