Before putting one or several transmission links into operation, you should scan the channel banks for free channels.

Displaying a list of all free channels

Via the “Channel list“ menu, you can display the number of free channels for all channel banks.

Select the “Scan” menu.

Select “Channel list” to display the last scan result. The illustrated list is an example list and may look different in other frequency ranges. The number of free channels is displayed for all channel banks.

For further details, select a channel bank by using the / rocker button and then press the SET button. This gets you into the “Channel” menu where you can select a channel of this channel bank or display the frequency of a channel.

Starting the scan

Before starting the scan, switch all transmitters of your system off, since channels used by switched-on transmitters will not be displayed as “free channels”.

Select the “Scan” menu.

Select “Scan new” and confirm your selection by pressing the SET button.

Note:

The scanning process takes approx. 1 minute.

After the scan is completed, the number of free channels is displayed for all channel banks. Channels that are used or subject to interference are locked and cannot be selected. The same result is displayed when selecting the “Channel list“ menu.

For further details, select a channel bank by using the / rocker button and then press the SET button. This gets you into the “Channel” menu where you can select a channel of this channel bank or display the frequency of a channel.

Releasing locked channels

Select the “Scan” menu.

Select “Scan reset” and confirm your selection by pressing the SET button. The last scan result is deleted and all channels can now be selected again.
