Scan Lists
Scan lists are created and assigned to individual
channels/groups. Your radio scans for voice activity
by cycling through the channel/group sequence
specified in the scan list for the current channel/
group.
Your radio can support up to 64 scan lists, with a
maximum of 16 members in a list. Each scan list
supports a mixture of both analog and digital entries.
You can add, delete, or prioritize channels by editing
a scan list.
Scan
When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the
programmed scan list for the current channel looking
for voice activity.
The LED blinks yellow and you see the Scan icon on
the display.
During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital
channel, and your radio locks onto an analog
channel, it automatically switches from digital mode to
analog mode for the duration of the call. This is also
true for the reverse.
There are two ways of initiating scan:
• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans
all the channels/groups in your scan list. On
entering scan, your radio may – depending on the
settings – automatically start on the last scanned
“active” channel/group or on the channel where
scan was initiated.
• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically
starts scanning when you select a channel/group
that has Auto Scan enabled.
Starting and Stopping Scan
Do one of the following.
• Press the programmed Scan button.
• Use the Channel Rocker to select a channel
programmed with Auto Scan enabled.
The LED blinks yellow and you hear a positive
indicator tone, when Scan is enabled.
The LED turns off and you hear a negative
indicator tone, when Scan is disabled.
