Setting the Delay Mode for Trunking Mode

A default delay of 2 seconds is automatically set for each talkgroup for ID Scan mode and ID
Search mode. To set the delay feature on or off, press DELAY while trunking, "DLY" will
appear or disappear depending on your setting.

Trunking Frequency Confirmation

You can check the frequency while a talkgroup ID is active.
Press the M key ,and the active frequency on which the talk group is transmitting will flash on
the display. Or press and hold the M key for 2 seconds, the ID and the frequency alternately
appears on the display. To cancel this mode, press the M key again.
Hint: This feature is applied to ID Scan mode and ID Search mode.

Setting Priority in Trunking Mode

You can set priority in your Scan lists, just as you do in your conventional ones. Default
setting for the Priority ID is the first location in each Scan List. You can set the priority by
pressing and holding PRI for 2 seconds in ID Scan Hold mode. After you've set up your
Scan List, press PRI to activate it.
It's very similar to conventional priority although there is no "interrupt" during the
transmissions. Priorities are checked in between transmissions.
With Priority ON, you can hold on an ID in your Scan List, such as Scan List 3, memory
location 7, and the scanner will check all the priorities in all the active Scan Lists in between
any transmissions on the ID on which you're holding. The lowest numbered priority will be
checked first. For example, the Priority ID in List 1 will be checked before the Priority in List
2, etc.
Note: • This function does not work in LTR tracking.
• Priority Scan does not operate when Priority IDs are locked out.

Moving between Scan List Memories

There are a number of ways to step and move through your Scan List memories:
1. Press HOLD/RESUME in the ID Scan mode and use the L or M key to move to up or
down.
2. Or, press HOLD/RESUME in the ID Scan mode, next press 0-9 (scan list number), then
press 0-9 (memory position). For example to move to Scan List 4, memory position 10,
press: HOLD/RESUME, 4, 0, HOLD/RESUME
