Priority Scanning
Priority scanning is independent of regular scanning and allows you to sample a priority channel
at various rates while listening to another conversation. It is not necessary to be scanning to
monitor a priority channel. Up to 2 priority channels can be selected.
Priority scan breaks into actively received signals at a priority interval rate setup in the PC
Programmer or through the programming menu.
Priority scanning is set up by creating a priority scanlist, selecting a priority mode and activating
priority scan.
1. Create priority channels. While you can have up to two priority channels, one is
recommended. This is programmed into the radio but can be changed by accessing the main
menu. To select priority channels from the menu,
refer to “Scan Submenu”).
2. Select the priority scan mode. This is programmed into the radio from the PC Programmer. It
is highly recommended to leave this at its default value (PR1), unless it is absolutely
necessary to scan two priority channels. To change this mode using the keypad,
refer to “Scan
Menu”).
3. Activate priority scan. Several options exist for turning priority scan on or off.
• Use the preprogrammed auxiliary button
• Use the preprogrammed collar switch
• Use the keypad ( refer to “Scan Menu”).
You know you are scanning when the top row of the display briefly flashes one of the
following:
