CONVENTIONAL FEATURES
36
lists can be system operator or user programmed as described in the infor-
mation which follows. With limited keypad (5-key) models, only one
scan list is available and it cannot be user programmed. However,
nuisance channels can still be temporarily deleted as described on
page 26.
Proceed as follows to select a scan list with full keypad models:
1. If required, enable scanning by pressing the Scan option switch.
2. To select a list, press the number key corresponding to the number of
the desired list (1-3). The selected list is then briefly displayed as “Scan
x” where “x” is the list number. The selected scan list is stored in
memory and does not change until this procedure is repeated.
Transmitting in Scan Mode
When the transmitter is keyed with scanning enabled, the radio can
be programmed so that the transmission always occurs on one of the
following channels:
• Priority channel (see following description)
• Selected channel
• Channel of a call if the response is made before scanning resumes
Priority Channel Sampling
General
The priority channel sampling feature ensures that when standard
scanning is occurring, messages on the priority channel are not missed
while listening to a message on some other channel. Your transceiver can
be programmed so that the priority channel is a fixed channel associated
with the current scan list, the currently selected channel, or not used.
When the selected channel is a priority channel,
“Pri” is indicated in the
upper part of the display.
