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.
• 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.
• The
icon (right side) 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.
