Priority/Priority Id/Priority Plus Scan - Uniden BCD325P2-AU Owner's Manual

PRIORITY/PRIORITY ID/PRIORITY PLUS SCAN

Priority Scan When scanning a conventional system, scanning is interrupted (based
on the priority check interval setting) to check priority channels for activity. The more
channels you have set to priority, the longer the interruption is. The scanner cannot
scan over 100 priority channels at once. The quick keys for the system(s) and
group(s) containing the priority channel(s) have to be enabled (and unlocked) or the
scanner will display 'Priority Scan No Channel'.
Priority Plus Scan the scanner only scans priority channels in (unlocked)
conventional systems with system and group quick keys enabled.
The highest priority is for channels in system/site and group quick key 1. The lowest
priority is for channels in system/site quick key 90 and group quick key 0. Priority for
priority channels in the same channel group follows the order in which the channels
were created.
Priority ID Scan this function is similar to conventional priority although there is no
interruption during the transmission. Priority ID Scan is always on for a system if
enabled in the system setting. Priority is checked in between transmissions, when
the scanner is receiving the control channel, and during the channel delay period.
The scanner can only look for priority IDs in the trunked system it is currently
scanning.
Preemptive Priority preemptive priority is a feature that works on Motorola
systems. If the Motorola system has priority channels, and you assign one of those
TGs as priority in the scanner, then when one of those channels becomes active,
the scanner will jump to it even if it is on a different system voice channel (i.e. it
preempts your current reception). This feature relies on the system itself having
talkgroups assigned as priority (so the active channel information is included on
voice channel low-speed data). If a talkgroup you assign as priority is not also a
priority channel on the transmitting system, then the scanner will use standard
trunking priority for the talkgroup.
To Use Priority Scan you must first set your priority channels.
To Use Priority ID Scan you must also enable Priority ID Scan for each system.
