OTHER PROGRAMMING FEATURES
Scan
Scan allows you to monitor other channels to
detect conversations. When the radio detects a
transmission, it will stop scanning and will stop
on the active channel. This will allow you to
listen and talk to people on that channel without
having to change the channel knob. If there is
talking on Channel 2 during this time, the radio
will stay on Channel 1 and you will not hear
Channel 2. After talking has stopped in
Channel 1, the radio waits for 5 seconds before
resuming scan again.
• To start scanning, press the SB2 button (*). When
the radio detects channel activity, it will stops on
that channel until the activity ends. You can talk
to the person(s) transmitting without having to
switch channels by pressing PTT.
• To stop scanning, short press the SB2 button
again.
• By pressing the PTT button while the radio is
scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel
which was selected before Scan was activated. If
no transmission occurs within five seconds,
scanning will resume.
• If you want to scan a channel without Interference
Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL), set the code
settings for the channels to ‘0’ in the CTCSS/DPL
Programming Selection Mode.
Whenever the radio is set up in Scan, the LED
Indicator will signal a red blink.
Note: (*)Assumes the SB2 button is not
programmed to other function different from
the default. If Auto-Scan has been enabled
for a particular channel, do not press SB2 to
scan the channel, as the radio will do it
automatically.
