Priority Scan

If you activate a Priority Scan while scanning, the radio interrupts its scan every two seconds to check the priority channel (P-Ch). PRI appears on the screen.

There are two ways to set Priority Scan.

1.Press F + [1] to set one of the following Priority Scan levels in Scan / Scan Hold mode.

Off — Normal scanning. The scanner provides no special treatment for Priority Channels.

On — The scanner scans all unlocked channels and also checks those designated as Priority. While scanning a conventional system, the scanner interrupts every 2 seconds and checks the priority channels in each unlocked conventional system. Priority channels in lower priority key numbered systems (starting from 1) have highest priority. PRI appears when you select this mode.

Plus On — The scanner only scans priority channels in unlocked conventional systems. PRI flashes when you select this mode.

2.You can choose how the scanner treats Priority Channels using the Menu options.
