Chapter 5: Radio Programming through CPS
When the radio detects a transmission, it stops scanning and goes to the active channel. This allows you
to listen and talk to people in that channel without having to change the channel manually. If there are
transmissions on another channel, you are not able to hear the activity once the radio has stopped scanning.
Once the activity on the transmitting channel stops, the radio waits for five seconds before resuming the scan
again.
5.2.1.1
Scanning Channels
Procedure:
1. To start scanning, press the SB1 or SB2 button.
NOTE:
Scan has to be programmed either to the SB1 or SB2 button through Customer Programming
Software (CPS). SB2 is by default Down button for RMU2040/RMU2043/RMM2050 models.
By pressing the PTT button while the radio is scanning, the radio transmits on the channel that
was previously selected before scan is activated. If no transmission occurs within five seconds,
scanning resumes.
2. To stop scanning, short press the SB1 or SB2 button that are programmed for scan again.
3. To scan a channel without the Interference Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL), set the code settings for
the channels to 0 in the CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection mode.
5.2.2
Nuisance Channel Delete
Nuisance Channel Delete allows you to temporarily remove channels from the Scan List.
5.2.2.1
Deleting Nuisance Channel
Procedure:
1. To start the scan mode, short press the programmed SB2 button.
NOTE: Wait until the radio stops at the channel you wish to eliminate.
2. To delete the channel, long press the SB2 button once the radio stops at the channel you want to
delete.
You cannot delete the channel with scan enabled.
3. To scan the channel again, exit the scan mode by short pressing the SB2 button or by turning Off the
radio and turning On again.
