Channel Scan
This optional feature allows you to monitor a number of chan-
nels. The receiver checks each channel in a preprogrammed
list for activity (up to 15 channels on the 16 channel model).
Two types of channel scan are offered in the P110 radio;
non-priority and priority scan. Both types of channel scan are
available with PL/DPL operation. To initiate the scan feature,
rotate the channel selector switch to the channel in which
scan is programmed. If a conversation is initiated on any of
the channels that the radio is scanning, the radio stops on
the active channel and you can listen to the conversation.
The P110 scan list is not operator selectable;
however, it may be reprogrammed through the
Radio Service Software available at your local
Motorola Radius dealer.
• Non Priority Channel Scan
With this type of scan operation, no one scan channel has pri-
ority over another. The scanner stops on the first scan channel
with activity, and when the activity is over and a 3-second
"hang-time" has expired, proceeds to the next scan channel.
• Priority Channel Scan
Any one of the radio's programmed channels may be desig-
nated as the priority channel. Whenever activity occurs on
the priority channel, the scanner automatically stops there
and the priority alert tone is heard. Even if you are listening
to another channel in the scan list, the radio automatically
goes to the priority channel when there is activity.
• PL/DPL Channel Scan
Private-Line operation is offered with priority and non-
priority channel scan. With this mode of scanning opera-
tion, the scanner stops on only the scan channels coded
with the proper PL/DPL tone if PL/DPL signalling is active
when you initiate scan.
If the monitor mode is not active when the scan-
ning feature is initiated, the radio performs a PL
type of scan. If the monitor mode is active when
the scanning feature is initiated, the radio per-
forms a CSQ type of scan.
