SCAN
Your radio is equipped with the Scan feature,
which allows you to search for, lock onto, and
monitor voice activity on channels. Scan lists
are assigned per channel, by your dealer/
programmer. Your radio automatically
switches to a channel, within that scan list,
when it detects activity. You can also edit
these lists through your radio’s menu (see
page 27).
• The green LED indicator blinks during scan
mode; it stops blinking when the radio
switches to an active channel.
•The Gsymbol appears on the display
while in scan mode.
• Your dealer/programmer can preprogram
your radio where if the microphone is
taken off hook while in Scan mode, the -
scanning activity becomes suspended until
the microphone is replaced.
There are two types of Scan available in your
radio:
•System Scan
• Auto Scan
TALKBACK
The Talkback feature allows you to respond to
a transmission while scanning. If transmission
is detected on a channel while scanning, the
radio will stop and land on that channel for a
preprogrammed period of time after activity has
ceased. This is referred to as “hangtime”.
During this hangtime you may respond by
pressing the PTT button.
Note: The LED scan indicator stops blinking
while the radio is in hangtime. If the
PTT button is not pressed after the
preprogrammed hangtime, the radio
reverts back to scan.
START SYSTEM SCAN G
Press the preprogrammed Scan button to start
System Scan (see page 12).
