Basic Scanning Operation

Now that you have entered a few CONV or TGRP objects you can experiment with Scan and Manual

operation.

Activating Scan Mode will cause your scanner to scan through all Scannable Objects that are members of

enabled Scan Lists and are not locked out. Manual Mode allows you to browse the Scannable Objects you

have created so you can select just one to monitor.

To activate Scan Mode, just press the SCAN key on the keypad. Unless you have explicitly changed Scan

List membership, all of the objects you have entered so far should be mapped to Scan List 01, and your

scanner should begin scanning these objects immediately when you press the SCAN key. The scanner

display indicates Scan Mode as follows:

Study the two rows under the “Scanning” display. Each space represents the status of a Scan List in your

radio. The top row of numbers represents Scan Lists 1 through 10, and the bottom row represents Scan

Lists 11 through 20. Unless you have already enabled other Scan Lists in your radio, you will only see the

number “1” in the top row. All of the other spaces contain “.” symbols, which indicates that these other Scan

Lists are currently not enabled.

If you have included one or more TGRP objects in your programming, and are within range of the trunked

radio system for those TGRPs, you will see the T icon flash periodically while the radio is scanning. The T

icon indicates that the scanner is receiving control channel data from a trunked radio system.

To pause the scanner on an active object so that the scanner does not resume scanning, press the PAUSE

key while the scanner is stopped on that object, and press PAUSE or SCAN to resume scanning.

Alternatively, you may press MAN to monitor an active object. Although PAUSE and MAN both stop the

scanner on the active object, there are some small differences in how they operate. PAUSE pauses the

scanner but keeps the scanner in scan mode, resulting in faster stop/start operation. MAN stops scan

mode completely, and allows you to browse the file system to select other objects to monitor.

While the scanner is Manual Mode, you can browse through the stored objects in your scanner and select

one object to monitor. Use the ^ and v keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad to scroll through the objects

assigned to the current Scan List. The > and < keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad are used to browse up

and down through the Scan Lists, respectively. Only Scan Lists that contain objects are shown when
