Calls on the fixed priority and block ID codes are received regardless of which group is selected or group scanning. All that is required is that the system programmed with those codes be selected or scanned.

If a call with a higher priority is detected while receiving a call, the current call is immediately dropped and the higher priority call received. Telephone calls are not interrupted by priority calls.
