Open Scan Mode - GME TX6600PRO Instruction Manual

OPEN SCAN MODE

Open Scan allows any of the channels to be scanned for activity in an ascending
sequence (i.e. from the lowest channel to the highest). If a busy channel is found,
the scan will pause to allow the signal to be heard. Once the channel has been
clear for 5 seconds, the scan will resume automatically.
e.g. Scanning channels 1 – 8 in Open Scan.
The TX6600PRO has two separate Open Scan memories labelled OPEN1 and
OPEN2. Their operation is identical but each can be independently programmed
with a range of different channels. The OPEN1 scan memory has all 80 channels
factory-programmed. Any channels that are not required can be easily removed.
The OPEN2 scan memory is factory-programmed with all the repeater channels.
