Activating In-Zone Scanning
An in-zone scan group scans the first 50 conventional channels (P25 or analog) or trunked talkgroups from the cur-
rently-selected zone. If zones are changed, the radio stops scanning the previous zone's channels and automatically
starts scanning channels from the new zone.
In-zone scanning is useful when scanning conventional channels and trunked talkgroups from within the selected
zone, and zones are used to separate different geographic regions or work roles. As you change to a new region or
role, you can change to another zone and the radio will automatically start scanning channels or talkgroups in the new
zone, with no further action required.
To turn in-zone scanning on:
• Press Menu and select Radio settings > Functions > Scanning, or press the function key programmed for
in-zone scanning.
In-zone scanning remains on until you either press the function key again, or select a standard, back-
ground or talkgroup scan group.
Activating Talkgroup Scanning
Talkgroup scanning monitors calls from multiple trunked talkgroups, and up to five additional conventional channels
(P25 or analog), from across zones. If conventional channels are included as group members, your radio will briefly
leave the trunking control channel to scan these channels at regular intervals.
If a talkgroup scan group contains P25 or analog conventional channels, scanning
needs to exit trunk mode briefly to scan the conventional channels. This may res-
ult in delayed or even missed calls!
Talkgroup scanning is useful if you need to operate across multiple trunked talkgroups. When talkgroup scanning is
activated, the currently-selected talkgroup or channel is temporarily included in the scan group. If you change zones,
the radio continues to monitor group members as well as the currently selected talkgroup or channel from the new
zone.
To turn talkgroup scanning on:
• Press Menu and select Radio settings > Functions > Scanning, or press the function key programmed for
talkgroup scanning.
Talkgroup scanning remains on until you either press the function key again, or select a standard,
background or in-zone scan group.
