Priority

The priority feature lets you scan through the channels and still not miss important or interesting calls on specific channels. You can program one stored channel in each bank as a priority channel (10 for the banks).

If the priority feature is turned on, as the scanner scans the bank, it checks that bank's priority channel for activity every 2 seconds.

The scanner automatically designates each bank's first channel as its priority channel.

Follow these steps to select a different channel in a bank as the priority channel.

Manually select the channel you want to select as the priority channel.

Press FUNC + PGM, then press FUNC + PRIORITY. P appears to the left of the selected channel number.

Repeat Steps and for the channel in each bank you want to program as a priority channel.

To turn on the priority feature, press FUNC + PRIORITY during scanning. PRI appears. Then the scanner checks the designated priority channel every 2 seconds in each bank.
