AR1000 Reference
mission ends, the scanner will delay for approximately three seconds and will
then start scanning or searching. This is useful so that you don't miss a response
to a transmission. When set to Hold, the scanner will remain on the last active
frequency and will not resume scanning or searching until you press the SCAN
or SEARCH buttons again. Hold mode is useful for snagging those intermittent
or elusive frequencies you are trying to find.
Unfortunately, you can not defeat the delay feature of the AR1000. This be-
comes a problem if you are trying to monitor trunked systems, because in a
trunked system, the response may come on a channel that is different from that
of the original transmission. On a trunked system you want the scanner to
immediately resume scanning after a transmission ends. Since the AR1000 is
waiting to hear the response on the same channel, you may miss the response on a
different channel by the time the scanner starts scanning again. There is currently
no way around this problem and the AR1000 may not be suitable for monitoring
trunked systems.
The Delay/Hold setting applies to both searching and scanning modes and to all
channels and banks. You can't set some banks to Delay and others to Hold.
The AR1000 always defaults to Delay mode on power-up.

SEARCH

The large SEARCH button is the primary control for putting your scanner into
Search mode. Once you have programmed in one or more search banks, you start
searching by pressing the SEARCH button. The Up arrow above the SEARCH
button is there to inform you that searches will be done in ascending frequency
order, searching from the lower search limit to the upper limit.
You can switch to Search mode at any time (while in Scan mode or Manual
mode) by pressing the SEARCH button.

SCAN

The large SCAN button is the primary control for putting your scanner into
Scan mode. After you have entered frequencies into the Scan channels, you start
scanning by pressing the SCAN button. The Up arrow above the SCAN button
is there to inform you that the AR1000 will scan in ascending Scan channel
order, scanning from the lower Scan channels to the higher Scan channels.
You can switch to Scan mode at any time (while in Search mode or Manual
mode) by pressing the SCAN button.
