Scan function
If the scan function is activated in the equipment configuration, pressing
the STO key changes from the channel selection mode to the scan
function. In the scan function, the frequency appears in the top line of the
display and the associated channel with the preset CS is shown in the
bottom line.
In the scan function, either all the occupied storage channels or a requi-
red range of storage channels can be scanned. The scanning range is
specified in the service mode. The various storage channels are scan-
ned in short intervals. If the microprocessor finds a carrier in one of the
channels, it holds a short on this channel and checks whether an evalua-
table signal is present. If no evaluatable signal is present, it switches to
the next channel and then revertsto the short intervals (milliseconds ran-
ge).
In the event of an evaluatable reception signal being received the por-
table VHF station remains on the storage channel until an evaluatable
reception signal is no longer present. After a hold time 0 to 60 seconds
(can be set in the service mode) the scanning of the storage channels at
short intervals begins again. The set squelch level is the criterium for an
evaluatable reception signal, regardless of whether the squelch is acti-
vated or not.
If the portable VHF station is equipped with channel priority, this function
can be switched ON or OFF in service mode SF 18
NOTE
If an adequate signal is required on the priority channel with option chan-
nel priority switched ON, the portable VHF station automatically leaves
the SCAN mode and is ready for transmission and receive on this chan-
nel. For return to the SCAN mode, again press the STO key.
