Garmin GPSCOM 190 - Manual (Page 40)

when the GPSCOM 190 is scanning, it goes through
the frequencies included in the scan, one by one, and
stops on an active frequency. When scanning, the right
side of the active frequency box displays GCAN’. When
scanning stops (signal is detected), you will hear the
transmitted audio and the word ‘SCAN’ is replaced with
the letters ‘RX’. Once the signal has gone inactive for two
seconds (the default scan delay), the GPSCOM 190 will
resume scanning until it detects another signal. See page
40 for instructions on how to change the scan delay.
To scan:
1. Highlight the graphic 'Scan' button and press
Scanning can be stopped in three ways:
• Break squelch by turning the squelch control counter­
clockwise until audio is heard (scanning wilt resume
once squelch is restored).
• Press the PIT switch or the frequency transfer button.
• Press on the highlighted 'Scan' button. Once the
unit has stopped scanning, you can press and
cycle the unit through each frequency in the scan list
you have selected.
Seeking
The GPSCOM 190s seek mode is similar to scanning
operation, without the delay function. When the unit is
seeking, it goes through the selected frequencies, one by
one, pausing on an active frequency. Once the receiver
pauses on a frequency it will remain stopped until you
start seeking again. This allows you more “hands on” con­
trol. When the receiver pauses you will hear the trans­
mitted audio and the word ‘SEEK’ will be replaced with
‘RX’.
To seek:
1. Highlight the 'Seek' button and press CB-
To stop seeking do any one of the following:
• Break squelch.
• Press the РТГ switch or the frequency transfer button.
• Press on the highlighted 'Seek' graphic button.
