Privacy Code Scan

Your microTALK

®

radio can automatically scan the Privacy

Codes (either CTCSS 01 through 38 or DCS 01 through 104)

within one channel. Only one set of privacy codes (CTCSS

or DCS) can be scanned at a time.

To scan privacy codes:
1.
While in Standby mode, press the

Channel Up or Channel Down button

to choose the channel on which you

wish to scan privacy codes.

2. Press the Mode button until either the CTCSS

or the DCS icon appears on the display and

the Scan icon and the privacy code numbers

flash on the display.

3. Press the Channel Up or Channel Down

button to begin scanning privacy codes

within the channel you selected.

The Scan icon will continue to be displayed

when privacy code scan is on. Your radio will

continue to scan privacy codes and stop as an

incoming transmission is detected. Your radio

will remain on that channel/privacy code for

10 seconds.
While setting privacy code scan, if you do not

press any buttons for 15 seconds, your radio

will automatically return to Standby mode on

the channel/privacy code that was displayed

before you entered mode functions.

During channel scan (while receiving an incoming transmission),

you can choose from the following:
a. Press and hold the Talk button to communicate on

that channel. Your radio will remain on that channel

and return to Standby mode.

b. Press the Channel Up or Channel Down button to

resume scanning channels.

If you press the Talk button while scanning, but more than

10 seconds after receiving a transmission, you will transmit

on the channel on which you last received a transmission.

This will return the radio to Standby mode.
If you do not press any button within 10 seconds after

receiving a scanned transmission, your radio will automatically

resume scanning channels.
During channel scan (while not receiving a transmission),

you can choose from the following:
a. Press and hold the Talk button to communicate on the

channel or channel/privacy code that was displayed before

you entered mode functions or the channel on which, during

scanning, you last received a transmission. This will then

return the radio to Standby mode.

b. Press the Mode button to proceed to set privacy

code scan on the channel that was either displayed before

you entered mode functions or on which, during channel

scanning, you last received a transmission (see page 19

for further details).

c. Press the Lock/Enter button to return to Standby mode

on the channel/privacy code that was displayed before you

entered mode functions or the channel on which, during

scanning, you last received a transmission.
