SPECIAL FEATURES

USING THE KEYLOCK

Once you program your scanner, you can protect it from accidental pro- gram changes by turning on the keylock feature. In this mode, the only controls that operate are SCAN, MANUAL, KEYLOCK/ , VOLUME, and

SQUELCH.

Note: The keylock does not prevent the scanner from scanning chan- nels.

To turn on the keylock, press and hold KEYLOCK/ until the scanner beeps and KEYLOCK appears on the display. To turn it off, press and hold KEYLOCK/ until the scanner beeps and KEYLOCK disappears from the display.

LOCKING OUT CHANNELS

You can increase the effective scanning speed by locking out individual channels that have a continuous transmission, such as a weather chan- nel. To lock out a channel, manually select the channel and press LOCK- OUT/S/S so L/O appears on the display.

To remove the lock-out from a channel, manually select the channel and press LOCKOUT/S/S so L/O disappears from the display.

Note: You can manually select locked-out channels.

To remove the lock-out from all channels in a memory bank, follow this procedure.

1.While scanning, press the number key corresponding to the mem- ory bank you want to unlock.

2.Press MANUAL to enter the manual mode.

3.Press and hold LOCKOUT for more than 3 seconds. The scanner beeps twice, and all locked out memory channels in the selected bank are unlocked.
