Advanced Features

English

There are two types of scans:

• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans all the

channels/groups in your scan list. On entering scan, your

radio may – depending on the settings – automatically start

on the last scanned “active” channel/group or on the channel

where scan was initiated.

• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically starts

scanning when you select a channel/group that has Auto

Scan enabled.

NOTE: This feature is not applicable in Capacity Plus and

Linked Capacity Plus.

Starting and Stopping Scan

Procedure:

1 Press the programmed Scan button.

Use the Volume/Channel Knob or Channel Up/Down

buttons to select a channel with Auto Scan enabled.

2 When Scan is enabled, the yellow LED blinks and you hear

a positive indicator tone.

When Scan is disabled, the LED turns off and you hear a

negative indicator tone.

Responding to a Transmission During a Scan

During scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group where

activity is detected. The radio stays on that channel for a

programmed time period known as “hang time”.

Procedure:

1 If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you

hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio

releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for

you to respond.

2 Press the PTT button during hang time. The green LED

lights up.

3 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak

clearly into the microphone.

Wait for the PTT Sidetone to finish (if enabled) and

speak clearly into the microphone.

4 Release the PTT button to listen.

5 If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio returns

to scanning other channels/groups.
