about two seconds while SAME Standby is active. The display indicates the type of message, and the scanner sounds the alarm associated with that type of message. The alarm sound changes automatically every three seconds. Press any key except DIM to end the alarm demonstration mode.

using delay

You can conﬁgure your conventional, non-trunked channels for a two second delay to avoid missing reply trafﬁc on the same channel. When delay is set for a conventional channel, the scanner will pause for reply trafﬁc before resuming the scan operation. To toggle the delay setting for a channel, press ./DELAY.

•Delay is automatically set as the default for each channel when you turn on the scanner.

•Delay operates differently when monitoring trunked radio systems. For more information, see “Trunked Delay Function”.

locking out channels/frequencies

You can lock out channels to force the scanner to skip and ignore any trafﬁc while scanning. While searching, you can lock out up to 50 frequencies to skip undesired transmissions.

locking out channels

To lock out a channel while scanning, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on the channel.

To lock out a channel manually, select the channel then press L/OUT so L appears in the scanner’s display.
