Scan Operations

Scan operation tells the radio to monitor a number of frequencies or channels. When there are some activi- ties at a particular frequency or channel, the radio stops scanning and changes to that frequency or channel.

Scan modes supported by the radio are:

(i)Programmable Band scan (MHz mode)

(ii)Memory Channel scan (Memory mode)

NOTE

Each frequency or channel is given the same prior- ity i.e. non-priorityscan.

IMPORTANT

The radio will not recall the scan state if it is pow- ered off while scanning.

Programmable Band Scan

In the MHz mode, the radio scans over a prepro- grammed range of frequencies usually specified in memory channels 19 and 20.

NOTE

User can specify the frequency range for scanning by programming the frequency limit into memory channel 19 (usually the lower limit) and memory channel 20 (usually the upper limit) (see “Pro- gramming A Memory Channel” on page 32).
