Scan Mode; Using The Radio In Scan Mode - Uniden UM455 Owner's Manual

How It Works

Scan mode

You can save channels into memory and then use scan mode to monitor those
channels. When the radio detects a signal on a channel, it pauses on that channel
as long as the signal is received; when the transmission stops, the radio will continue
scanning.
When it detects a signal, the radio stays on the
channel until you press the
signal stops.
