Scan; Starting Or Stopping Scan; Talkback - Motorola GM160 User Manual

SCAN

Your radio can monitor multiple channels in a
scan list. Your dealer can program up to 16
different channels into each scan list. When
your radio detects activity on a scan list
channel, it will automatically switch to that
channel.
Note: The same channels can be assigned to
different scan lists.

STARTING OR STOPPING SCAN

The Gsymbol, and the number of the
channel you are transmitting on, will appear on
the display when you start a scan operation.
The green LED indicator blinks during a scan
operation and stops blinking when the radio
switches to a channel.
Note: If you enter Menu Mode while the radio is
scanning, scanning will stop. It will resume
when you exit Menu Mode.
You can start or stop a scan operation either
by:
pressing the preprogrammed Scan button (see
page 5) to start or stop scanning;

TALKBACK

The Talkback feature allows you to respond to
a transmission while scanning. If a
transmission on a channel is detected while
scanning, the radio will stop on that channel for
a preprogrammed period of time. During this
"hangtime" you may respond by pressing the
PTT.
Note: If transmission stops/ceases or if the PTT is
not pressed for a preprogrammed duration,
the radio will continue scanning. Also, the LED
scan indicator stops blinking while the radio is
in hangtime.
