Scan - Kenwood ProTalk TK-3601D User Manual

SCAN

Scan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver channels. When scanning,
the transceiver checks signals on each channel in the current zone and only stops
if a signal is present.
If the QT/ DQT/ Common ID matches, the transceiver stops at the channel and
opens the squelch so you can listen to the call. If the QT/ DQT/ Common ID does
not match, the call is ignored and scanning continues.
Before using the scan function, ensure that it is activated. You can turn the scan
function (the ability to perform scan) ON or OFF in Setting mode.
Scan: Press this button to start scanning the transceiver channels.
Scan Delete/ Add: Press this button to add or remove each channel in the scan
sequence.
