Scan
When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the programmed scan list for the current channel looking for voice activity.
The yellow LED blinks and the scan icon appears on the status bar.
During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital channel, and your radio locks onto an analog channel, it automatically switches from digital mode to analog mode for the duration of the call. This is also true for the reverse.
There are two ways of initiating scan:
•Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans all the channels/groups in your scan list. On entering scan, your radio may – depending on the settings – automatically start on the last scanned “active” channel/group or on the channel where scan was initiated.
•Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically starts scanning when you select a channel/group that has Auto Scan enabled.
NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus and Linked Capacity Plus.
