Set Priority – Sets the Priority mode. You can also toggle these modes by holding on any channel in scan mode and pressing Func then ./no(Pri).

Off - The Priority feature is off.

Priority DND - The scanner checks Priority channels only when not receiving other conventional channels.

PRI appears in the display reversed - .

Priority Scan - The scanner checks conventional priority channels.

PRI appears in the display - .

Set Interval – This sets (in seconds) how often the scanner will check the priority channels.

1-10 sec.

MaxChannels/Pri-Scan– This sets the maximum number of priority channels that are scanned during one priority scan interrupt. If there are more priority channels than the value you select, the channels are divided into more than one group and the scanner scans each group in turn. Example: If you set the maximum channels to 20 and there are 100 priority channels, the scanner checks those 100 channels in groups of 20 and takes a total of 5 intervals to complete the priority scan.

Scanning BY ASSIGNING QUICK KEYS

With previous scanners, you selected banks to scan. With this scanner, you select Favorites List and Systems to scan by assigning Quick Keys to them.

See also Understanding Quick Keys.

Scanning is performed with a mixture of FLQK order and SQK order. The scanner will not scan all Systems in one Favorites List and then move to the next List.

For each Favorites List, starting with 0, the scanner will scan each 0 SQK in FLQK order and then move to the next set of SQKs for each list.

Example:

FLQK 0, SQK 0; FLQK 1, SQK 0…. FLQK 98, SQK 99; FLQK 99, SQK, 99.

Systems with the same quick key are scanned in order of creation.

The Database is scanned next, in order of creation. Then, Systems with no quick key (including created Quick Save Systems) are scanned and in order of creation.

Conventional Channels and Departments within Systems are also scanned in order of creation.

IDs are not really scanned. The scanner checks for any activity in the trunking system and:

Will display all IDs when ID Search mode is set to On.

Will display only programmed IDs when ID Search mode is set to Off.

Next, any Custom Searches (enabled for Search with Scan) are scanned in order.

Then, the scanner scans the Close Call ‘Hits with Scan’ system (if Unavoided). This is a system that automatically stores the frequencies found by Close Call. If the ‘Hits with Scan’ system has no frequencies, the scanner will not scan the system.

The scanner scans a system for the duration you set using the System Hold Time option. For trunked systems, the scanner moves to the next system after the hold time expires, the current transmission ends, and the channel delay expires. Conventional systems operate similarly, but all (Unavoided) channels are scanned at least one time regardless of the hold time setting.
