STATUS INDICATORS

The status indicators or icons are located at the bottom of the display
and provide an indication of various radio operating characteristics.
The S icon is used for channels in the scan list. The S
icon turns on if the selected channel is part of the scan
list. The scan list is a group of channels the radio
continuously Monitors for activity.
modified by the radio programmer or by the radio user.
The P1 icon is used for priority 1 channels. The P1 icon
turns on when the selected channel is defined as the
priority 1 channel or when the radio receives a call on
the priority 1 channel. In scan mode, channels defined
as priority channels have precedence over non-priority
channels. If a priority 1 channel is decoded, the radio
will drop a call while on a non-priority channel or a
priority 2 channel and then switch to the priority 1
channel to receive the call. This channel will also be
scanned more often than non-priority channels and the
priority 2 channel.
The SCAN icon indicates the condition of the SCAN
mode. The SCAN button is used to toggle scan ON and
OFF. When scan is ON, the radio Monitors all the
channels in the scan list for any activity. The SCAN
icon turns on when the scan mode is enabled.
The P2 icon represents priority 2 channels. The P2 icon
turns on when the selected channel is defined as the
priority 2 channel or when the radio receives a call on
the priority 2 channel. In scan mode, channels defined
as priority channels have precedence over non-priority
channels. If a priority 2 channel is decoded, the radio
will drop a call while on a non-priority channel and then
switch to the priority 2 channel to receive the call. This
channel will also be scanned more often than other non-
priority channels, but less than the priority 1 channel.
