Scan operation will be determined by the following conditions:
•PRIORITY 1, PRIORITY 2 and NON-PRIORITY PROGRAMMED
The Priority 1, Priority 2 and up to 14 remaining channels will be
scanned. Once a carrier is detected (and if programmed, the co rrect
Channel Guard is decoded), the display will indicate that channel.
Sampling of the Priority 1 and Priority 2 channels continues while
receiving a message. Should a Priority 1 or 2 channel carrier (and correct
Channel Guard) be detected while a non-priority channel is being
received, the applicable indicator, P1 or P2 lights, and the channel is
switched to the Priority 1 or 2 channel regardless of what is being
received on the non-priority channel.
•NON-PRIORITY PROGRAMMED
Up to 16 non-priority channels may be scanned. Once a carrier is
detected (or correct Channel Guard is decoded) the digital display will
indicate that channel. Scanning will stop and remain on the channel until
the carrier disappears; after a few seconds scanning resumes. The
channels are scanned in descending order.
USING THE RADIO WITH SCAN
The Selected Channel
The SELECTED channel is the channel in the display when scan is turned
on by pushing the SCAN switch. When a signal is not being received, the radio
reverts to this channel for transmitting. When a signal is being received, the
radio can be PC programmed to either revert to the SELECTED channel or
remain on the received channel for transmission.
The SELECTED channel does not necessarily have to be a channel in the
scan list. The SELECTED channel will be temporarily entered into the scan
list and scanned until the SELECTED channel is changed.
When scan is turned off by pushing the SCAN switch, the radio will return
to the SELECTED channel.
Display
Channel indicator
While no signal is being received, the channel indicator will always show
the SELECTED channel. When an active channel is received, the channel
indicator will show the received channel.
