OVERVIEW

The TX4610 has a SCAN function that allows
groups of user programmable channels to be
scanned for signals. Channels can be scanned at
20 channels per second. When a signal is found,
scanning will pause on that channel to allow the
signal to be heard, then resume scanning when
the channel is clear again.

SCAN GROUPS

The TX4610 features two scan groups - Open
Scan and Group Scan.
Open Scan
Allows any of the installed channels to be
scanned for activity. If a busy channel is found,
scanning will pause to allow the signal to be
heard. Once the channel has been clear for 5
seconds, scanning will resume automatically.

Group Scan
Also allows any of the installed channels to
be scanned for activity, but in addition, it also
inserts your Priority channel into the scan
sequence. This means that your Priority channel
will be monitored regularly while scanning to
ensure that no calls are missed. Any signals
received on your Priority channel will take
precedence over any signals received on the
other channels.
