6.24.1 Lock Out a Talk Group
1. Use to scroll through the menu until “LockOutMenu” appears in the bottom line of the
display. The name of a talk group in the currently active profile will appear in the top line.
2. Use to scroll through the list of talk groups, if any, until the desired talk group for lock out
appears in the top line of the display.
3. Press the MENU button to lockout the displayed talk group. A less than symbol (<) appears next to the
talk group’s name.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3, as needed, to lockout additional talk groups.
The dwell display will re-appear a few seconds after button presses end.
While scrolling through talk groups in the active profile, the only talk groups that appear in the
“LockOutMenu” are those in the active profile.
6.24.2 Unlock a Talk Group
1. Use to scroll through the menu until “LockOutMenu” appears in the bottom line of the
display. The name of a talk group in the currently active profile will appear in the top line.
2. Use to scroll through the list of talk groups, if any, until the talk group desired for unlocking
appears in the top line of the display. A less-than symbol (“<”) appears next to the name of a talk
group that is currently locked out.
3. Press the MENU button to unlock the talk group. The less-than symbol (“<”) next to the name of the
talk group disappears. The dwell display appears as soon as the radio acknowledges the selection.
6.24.3 Caution Regarding Profile Changes
A talk group’s lock out status does not survive a change of profile. If after locking out talk groups in the
current profile and then selecting a new profile, all talk groups that were previously locked are
automatically unlocked.
Compare options before changing to another profile. If the user’s goal can be achieved by temporarily
assigning priority talk group status to a talk group, it could be possible to avoid having to lock out the
same talk groups again in a new profile.
6.25 SCANNING
Three scanning modes are available for the radio, but only one can be active at any time. Changing the
scanning mode changes the way the radio scans voice calls for all of profiles in the radio personality, no
matter which profile is or becomes active.
As described in Table 6-5, the choice of scanning mode changes the span of communications with all the
talk groups in the radio’s profiles, but does not affect interaction with the talk groups.
