SELECTING A SCAN RESUME METHOD
The transceiver stops scanning at a frequency or Memory channel on which a
signal is detected. It then continues scanning according to which resume mode
you have selected. You can choose one of the following modes. The default is
Time-operated mode.
•
Time-Operated mode
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency or Memory channel for
approximately 5 seconds, and then continues to scan even if the signal is still
present.
• Carrier-Operated mode
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency or Memory channel until the
signal drops out. There is a 2 second delay between signal drop-out and scan
resumption.
• Seek mode
The transceiver remains on a busy frequency or Memory channel even after
the signal drops out and does not automatically resume scanning.
Note: To temporarily stop scanning and monitor weak signals, press the microphone PF key
assigned to the Monitor function {page 66}. Press the PF key again to resume scanning.
1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 514 (SC.RESM) {page 20}.
2 Set the Scan Resume mode to TO (Time-Operated), CO (Carrier-Operated) or
SEEK.
