Scan
Scan allows you to monitor other channels to detect
conversations. When the radio detects a
transmission, it will stop scanning and will receive on
the active channel. This will allow you to listen and
talk to people on that channel without having to
change channel. If there is are transmissions on
another channel once the radio has stopped
scanning then you will not hear that activity. After
activity has ceased on the channel which the radio
has stopped, scanning will resume again after 5
seconds of no activity on that channel.
•
By pressing the PTT button while the radio is
scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel
which was selected before Scan was activated.
If no transmission occurs within five seconds,
scanning will resume.
•
If you want to scan a channel without
Interference Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL),
set the code settings for the channels to ‘0’ in the
CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode.
Whenever the radio is set up in Scan, the
LED Indicator will signal a Fast Red
Heartbeat.

•
To stop scanning, short press the SBx
button again.
To start scanning, press the SBx (x=1 or 2)
button (Scan is defaulted on SB2 but can be
programmed to either SB1 or SB2 via CPS).
When the radio detects channel activity, it will
stop on that channel until the activity ends. You
can respond to the caller on that channel
without having to switch channels by pressing
PTT.
