Search with Scan

Set Startup Key

Assign all the systems/sites that you want to scan at the same tim e. You can use
one key [0] to [9] for each. In additional, you can assign the s ame startup key to
the next system or site so that system or site is unlocked at power up. To change a
Startup key back to unassigned, enter [.No].
Scanning Systems
To begin scanning preprogrammed or programmed systems, press
[SCAN/SEARCH]. The BCD996T scans all unlocked systems in all p rogrammed
and activated quick-key groups and any searches unlocked for search with scan.
To enable or disable systems or sites for scanning, press the site/system’s
System/Site Quick Key while scanning.
Notes:
If no systems are programmed, or all systems are lo cked out, Nothing to
Scan appears. Program a system or select a system to sc an.
When scanning multiple systems, the BCD996T scans s ystems according to
the assigned quick key. Systems assigned to quick key 1 are scanned first,
then 2, 3, 4, etc. Systems not assigned to a quick key are scanned last, then
unlocked searches. Within a quick key, systems are scanned in the order they
were assigned.
Within a system, channels are scanned according to t he assigned channel
group, with the same priority as described above for systems .
The BCD996T scans a system for the duration you set using the System Hold
Time option (see “Setting the System Hold Time” on Page 70). For trunked
systems, the scanner moves to the next system after the hold time expires, the
current transmission ends, and the channel delay expire s. Conventional
systems operate similarly, but all unlocked channels are scanned at least on e
time regardless of the hold time setting.
Each search range is searched for the amount of time you set using the “Set
Hold Time” option. See “Setting the System Hold Time” on Page 70 for more
information.
