Scanning Systems

To begin scanning programmed systems, press Scan. The BR330T scans all unlocked systems in all activated quick-key groups and any searches unlocked for search and scan.

Notes:

If no systems are programmed, or all systems are locked out, an error message appears. Program a system or select a system to scan.

When scanning multiple systems, the BR330T scans systems 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 the assigned channel group, with the same priority as described above for systems.

The BR330T scans a system for the duration you set using the System Hold Time option (see “Set- ting the System Hold Time” on Page 82). 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 unlocked channels are scanned at least one 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 82 for more information.

Preprogrammed System Tips

All systems preprogrammed into the scanner are assigned to a Quick Key. See “Preprogrammed Sys- tems” on Page 148 for a list of preprogrammed systems and their Quick Key assignments.
