Scanning Channels - Codan Envoy Getting Started Manual

Scanning channels

E ® T
NVOY RANSCEIVER
If you intend to receive calls on several channels, switch on
scanning. When scanning is switched on, the transceiver
sequentially selects each channel/mode in your scan tables to detect
incoming calls. The channels are scanned in a continuous cycle. By
default, mute is switched on automatically when scanning is
switched on.
NOTE:
Only those scan tables that are set to be scanned have
the channels scanned. Up to 100 channels may be
scanned.
By default, when the transceiver detects a call addressed to your
station, it stops scanning and notifies you according to the type of
call received. When you press
resumes. If you do not press this key to end the call, or any other
key within a pre-determined timeout, the transceiver automatically
ends the call and resumes scanning.
NOTE: The default standby state for the transceiver is to
return to scanning so that it is ready to receive calls
across a range of frequencies.
When the transceiver detects a signal, it notifies you according to
the mute setting selected. If your transceiver is set to notify you
when voice is detected (V), you can pause scanning, select the
channel/mode on which the voice was heard, then resume scanning
when required. Voice mute also detects calls that are addressed to
any station on the scanned frequency, and any other channel
disturbances. If your transceiver is set to selcall mute (S), it only
pauses scanning when it detects a call addressed to your station,
regardless of the call system used.
Your choice of voice or selcall mute depends on whether or not you
have to detect voice signals, and how much noise and traffic you
want to hear.
It is recommended that scanning is switched on when you are not
using the transceiver to communicate so that you are able to receive
calls on any frequency in the scanned scan tables.
