CHANNEL SCAN
Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the channels
programmed on the transceiver. When scanning, the
transceiver checks for a signal on each channel, and
only stops on a channel if a signal is present.
The transceiver will remain on a busy channel until the
signal is no longer present. Your dealer programs the
delay time between signal drop-out and scan
resumption. If a signal is received during the delay
time, the transceiver will remain on the same channel.
Note:
You can only use Scan if your dealer has programmed at least 2
channels on the transceiver. Also, there must be at least 2 channels
not locked out of Scan.
Ask your dealer for an explanation on how Channel Scan functions
when using Code Squelch, Selective Call, or 2-Tone signalling.
To start scanning, press the key programmed as Scan.
Scanning starts from the current channel and ascends
through the channel numbers.
The SCN icon and “SCAN” appear on the display.
To end Scan, press the Scan key again.
