Set Delay Time

Set the number of seconds the scanner should wait after a transmission stops before moving on to the next channel. Select 0, 1, 2 (default), 5, 10, or 30 seconds.

To have scanner leave the channel after a designated number of seconds whether the transmission stops or not, select one of the negative values. Choose -10seconds to have the scanner leave the channel after 10 seconds even if the transmission is still going on; choose -5 seconds or -2 seconds to have the scanner leave after 5 seconds or 2 seconds, respectively.

Set Modulation
