Scanning Channels - Midland 100-Watt UHF User Manual

Scanning Channels

If you have more than one channel programmed, your Titan
radio may be programmed to allow you to scan them. Press and
release the SCAN button to activate scan. The radio will begin
checking all channels in the scan list for activity. The SCAN icon
or PRI icon will be displayed while the radio is scanning. To turn
scan off, press and release the SCAN button again.
The scan mode and scan list are initially programmed by your
dealer or communications coordinator. If a priority scan mode
has been selected, the priority channel is checked for activity
more often than other channels in the scan list. The priority
channel will also be checked for activity while the radio is
receiving on a non-priority channel.
Once the receive signal ends, the radio may be programmed to
wait a period of time before resuming scan. When the Scan hold
after RX timer has expired, scanning will resume. There is also a
Scan hold after TX timer that will be started whenever the radio
has ceased transmitting on a channel. Your dealer or
communications coordinator will customize the scan options for
your particular situation; the following paragraphs detail the
available options. The scan mode depends on both the dealer
programmed Scan Selection and the user selection from the
menu functions as outlined in the table.
