SCAN
Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver
channels. When scanning, the transceiver checks for a signal
on each channel and only stops if a signal is present.
The transceiver will remain on a busy channel until the signal
is no longer present. Your dealer programs the delay time
between signal drop-out and Scan resumption. If a signal is
received during the delay time, the transceiver will remain on
the same channel.
Note: You can only use Scan if your dealer has programmed at least
2 channels and they are not locked out of Scan.
To start scanning, momentarily press the key programmed as
either Scan or Scan + Temporary Delete.
Scanning starts from the current channel and ascends
through the channel numbers.
The LED indicator flashes green.
When a signal is received on a channel and signalling
matches, the LED indicator lights green.
To end Scan, press the Scan or Scan + Temporary Delete
key again.
Priority Scan
If enabled, a priority channel is set up one of two ways:
•Your dealer may set up a fixed priority channel on your
transceiver.
•You can select your own priority channel, prior to
scanning, using the Channel selector.
During Scan, if a priority channel has been set up on your
transceiver, the transceiver will automatically change to
the priority channel when a call is received on it, even if a
call is being received on a regular channel.
The transceiver will remain on the Priority channel until the
signal drops out. Your dealer programs the delay time
between signal drop-out and scan resumption.
