Scan
Depending on the supported system available on your radio, your radio may have different behavior on
Scan.
Channel Scan
Channel Scan is available for Other Systems.
When you start a scan, your radio scans through the programmed scan list for the current channel
looking for voice activity. If you are on a digital channel, and your radio locks onto an analog channel,
your radio automatically switches from digital mode to analog mode during the call and the same
behavior occurs if you are on analog channel.
Table 23: Scan Methods
Method Description
Main Channel Scan (Manual) Your radio scans all the channels or groups in your scan list.
When scanning, your radio may, depending on the settings, auto-
matically start on the last scanned active channel or group, or on
the channel where scan was initiated.
Auto Scan (Automatic) Your radio automatically starts scanning when you select a chan-
nel or group that has Auto Scan enabled.
When you miss a call from a talkgroup or a channel that is in your scan list, you might be having the
following situations:
•
Scan feature is not turned on.
• Scan list member has been disabled through the menu.
• You are already participating in a call.
• For Multi-site system, no member of the scanned group is registered at your current site.
NOTE: If your radio joins a call for a Zone Scan List member from a different Zone and Call
Hang Timer expires before you are able to respond, in order to respond, you must navigate to
the Zone and Channel of the Scan List Member and start a new call.
