Privacy Code Scan

Your microTALK radio can automatically scan the

Codes (either CTCSS 01 through 38 or DCS 01 through 83)

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/Lock 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

Standby

mode on the channel/privacy code that was displayed before you

entered mode functions.
