Unlocking A Scan Bank - AOR AR1000 Manual

AR1000 Operations
• Press BANK.
• Press LOCKOUT.
Note:
There is one exception to this method of locking out a bank. If the channel you
choose within the bank is, itself, individually locked, you will not be able to lock
the entire bank. You must first unlock that channel (by pressing LOCKOUT)
and then press BANK, LOCKOUT, or go to another channel in the bank that
isn't locked and press BANK, LOCKOUT.
Shortcut:
If you are scanning several banks at a time, you can quickly force the AR1000 to
start scanning at the beginning of any bank by pressing the bank number on the
keyboard. For example, if you have enabled banks 3, 5, 7, and 8 for scanning,
and if each bank has all of its channels filled with frequencies, during normal
scanning the AR1000 will start scanning with channel 300, move sequentially up
to channel 399, then scan channel 500, scan sequentially through 599, and so
on. By watching the display you can determine which channel (and thus which
bank) is being scanned. If you see that you are currently scanning bank 3 (the
channels being scanned are in the 300s), you can force the scanner to immediately
begin scanning from the beginning of bank 7 simply by pressing the 7 on the
keyboard. The scanner will jump to channel 700 and start scanning from there.
You can use this shortcut with the bank lockout feature by jumping to the bank
you want to lockout, while in scan mode. Once you are in the bank you want to
lock, press BANK (this will cause the scanning to stop) and LOCKOUT. This
eliminates the need to switch to Manual mode and then press BANK and a
three-digit bank number before you perform the lockout sequence.
