Scan

Scanning allows you to search all channels for transmissions from
unknown parties, search for someone in your group who accidentally
changed channels, or search for unused channels for your own use.
The Scan feature includes a priority feature, Basic Scan Mode, and
Advanced Scan Mode for effective searching. The Basic Scan Mode
uses the channel and code combination that are set for each channel or
the default code value of 1.
The Advanced Scan Mode scans all channels for codes, detects any
code in use, and temporarily uses that code value for that channel.
Priority is given to the Home Channel. The Home Channel is the channel
and Interference Eliminator Code that your radio is set to when you
start the scan. As the Home Channel is scanned more often than other
channels, your radio responds quickly to any activity on the Home
Channel.

Scanning Channels

NOTE:
If you press the PTT button while the radio is scrolling through
●
inactive channels, the transmission occurs on the Home
Channel. Scanning resumes five seconds after the end of your
transmission. You can stop scanning at any time by pressing the
Scan/Monitor button.
If the radio stops on an undesired transmission, you can resume
●
the scan by pressing the + or - button.
If the radio repeatedly stops on an undesired transmission, you
●
can temporarily remove that channel from the scan list by
pressing and holding the + or - button for three seconds. You
can remove more than one channel in this way.
You can restore the removed channels to the scan list by turning
●
off the radio and turning it back on. Another method is to exit
and re-enter the scanning mode by pressing the Scan/Monitor
button.
You cannot remove the Home Channel from the scan list.
●
In Advanced Scan, the detected code can only be used for one
●
transmission. You must note that code, exit scan, and set that
detected code on that channel to permanently use the detected
code.
