TURNING CHANNEL-STORAGE BANKS ON
AND OFF
You can turn each channel-storage bank on and off. When you turn off
a bank, the scanner does not scan any of the 10 channels in that bank.
While scanning, press the number key corresponding to the bank you
want to turn on or off. (Press
0 to select bank 10). If the memory bank
indicator is on, the bank is turned on and the scanner scans all chan-
nels within that bank that are not locked out. If the indicator is off, the
scanner does not scan any of the channels within that bank.
Notes:
• You can manually select any channel in a bank, even if the bank is
turned off.
• You cannot turn off all banks. One bank is always active.
SEARCH SKIP MEMORY
You can skip specified frequencies during a limit or direct search. This
lets you avoid unwanted frequencies or ones you have already stored
in a channel. You can program up to 20 frequencies to be skipped into
the scanner’s memory.
To skip a frequency, press S/S ( LOCKOUT ) when the scanner stops on
the frequency during a limit or direct search. L/O (lockout) appears the
next time you display that frequency.
To clear a single frequency from search skip memory so the scanner
can stop on it during a limit or direct search, press
LIMIT to hold the
search, press ▼ or ▲ to select the frequency (where L/O appears),
then press S/S . L/O disappears.
To clear all the skip frequencies from search skip memory at once
while searching, hold down
S/S until the scanner beeps twice.
Memory banks 3 and 4 are turned off
