Program Slow Scan - Kenwood TS-990S Instruction Manual

PROGRAM SLOW SCAN

Program Slow Scan is a function that extends, at the
preconfigured frequency (frequency point) and its
adjacent frequency range, the scan time to remain on
each frequency (to slow down the scan) during the
Program Scan. If the scan slows down on the certain
frequency (frequency points) and its adjacent frequency
range, you can carefully watch the traffic status.
Program Slow Scan is a function that extends, at the
preconfigured frequency (frequency point) and its
adjacent frequency range, the scan time to remain on
each frequency (to slow down the scan) during the
Program Scan. {page 10-7}
ENABLING OR DISABLING THE PROGRAM SLOW
SCAN
To do the Program Slow Scan during the Program Scan,
you need to enable the Program Slow Scan in advance.
If the transceiver, during the Program Scan, scans the
frequency that is in the frequency range preconfigured for
the Program Slow Scan, "SCAN-SLOW" appears on the
main screen, and the scan time slows down.
1 Select Group No. 4, "Memory Channels & Scan", from
the Menu screen.
2 Access Menu 02, "Program Slow Scan".
3 Press [SELECT] (F4) to allow editing of the parameter
box.
4 Press [-] (F4) or [+] (F5) to select "On" or "Off".
The default is "On" (enabling the Program Slow Scan).
Selecting "Off" does not allow you to execute the Program
Slow Scan.
5 Press [ ] (F1).
6 Press [MENU] to exit.
Note:
◆ Select "Off" from Menu 4-02, if you do not use the Program Slow
Scan.
CONFIGURING THE PROGRAM SLOW SCAN
FREQUENCY RANGE
The frequency point where the scan time is extended
during the Program Slow Scan can be configured.
A maximum of five frequency points for each Program
Memory Channel,P0 to P9, can be configured.
To configure the frequency point, the frequency range
must initially be configured for the Program Memory
Channel. {page 10-7}

1 Press [M/V] to enter Memory Channel mode.
2 Press [M.LIST] (F7) to open the Single Memory
Channel List screen.
3 Press [ ] (F2) or [
the MULTI/CH control to select a Program Memory
Channel.
4 Press and hold [SLW.SCAN] (F5) to open the
Program Slow Scan screen.
If [MEMORY] (F5) is unavailable in the function key guide,
press [MORE] (F1).
5 Rotate the Tuning (M) control to tune the current
frequency as the frequency point of the program slow
scan.
6 Press one of the function keys [POINT1] (F2) to
[POINT5] (F6) to configure the frequency point.
• Pressing and holding the same function key clears the
stored frequency point.
• Pressing and holding the [(ALL.CLR)] (F7) clears all
frequency points.
7 Press and hold [
Slow Scan screen.
The transceiver reverts to the Memory Channel List screen.
Note:
◆ If the frequency point has been configured, pressing the
corresponding function key, [POINT1] (F2) to [POINT5] (F6),
overwrites the frequency stored for that frequency point.
◆ The value configured for the frequency point is rounding off to a
value below 10 Hz.
◆ The frequency point cannot be configured for use other than Single
Memory Channel Mode. Therefore, [SLOW.SCN] (F5) does not
appear until the selected band is placed in Program Slow Scan
mode.
