SCAN
This section outlines the scan functions of your radio.
All references to what is shown on the display is only
valid for Model II radios. Throughout this section, the
display below
is used to indicate the radioÕs home display.
SCAN OPERATION
The scan feature allows you to monitor activity on
different conventional or trunked modes by scanning a
scan list of modes. This list can be programmed with
the Customer Programming Software (CPS) or user
programmable.
Three types of scan operation are available depending
on radio model.
Your radio may support both priority and non-priority
scanning. With priority scanning enabled, a scan list
can have one mode assigned as the Þrst priority mode,
and a second as the second priority mode.
Automatic scanning (autoscan) can be programmed
through the CPS. If autoscan is enabled for a mode,
your radio begins scanning, using the modeÕs scan list,
whenever you select that mode. The radio will continue
autoscanning until you select a mode that does not
have autoscan enabled.
Turning Scan On or OFF with the Keypad
