Scanning for the strongest signal (voting)
With this type of scanning the scan group’s member channels
carry the same traffic, and the radio searches for the channel
with the strongest signal.
Background scanning (Flexiscan)
The Flexiscan scanning feature allows you to communicate
on a selected channel, while a group of channels is scanned
for valid activity in the background.
A Flexiscan scan group can contain up to 15 member
channels.
To activate Flexiscan:
■ Press the assigned function key.
Your radio may be programmed so that Flexiscan is turned
off when the PTT key is released after making a call when
Flexiscan is active.
Deleting a channel from a scan group
(nuisance delete)
If a channel is busy for a long time and you do not wish to
hear the conversation, you can temporarily delete it from the
scan group if one of the function key settings is programmed
for nuisance delete.
To temporarily delete a channel from a scan group:
■ Press the assigned function key. When the scan group is
next selected, the deleted channel is again part of the
scan group.
