Scan Delay And Continue Timers - E.F. Johnson Company MULTI-NET 98xx SERIES Operating Manual

SYSTEM AND GROUP SCAN
inal group scan list is again active. Systems and groups can be deleted
from the scan list while listening to a message on the system or group by
pressing the A/D switch in the normal manner. Scanning resumes shortly
after the system or group is deleted.
Scan list programming is not available if the A/D switch is disabled.
In addition, the group scan list is not programmable if the group scanning
is disabled on the current system. If an attempt is made to program the
group scan list on one of these systems, a beep sounds, "GSCN DIS" is
flashed in the display, and no change occurs in the scan list.
Saving Scan List
If the menu mode SCN SAVE parameter is available, you can select
if scan list changes are saved. If "On" is selected, changes are saved as
they are made and the scan list is the same when power is turned on. If
"Off" is selected, they are no longer saved. Therefore, to store a list,
select "On", program the list, then select "Off". Then when power is
turned on, the scan list returns to the state that existed when "Off" was
selected.
If the menu SCN SAVE parameter is not selectable, the scan list save
mode is fixed by programming. If "On" is programmed, all changes are
saved and no change occurs in the scan lists when power is cycled. If
"Off" is programmed, they are not saved and the scan list reverts to the
default status when power is cycled.

Scan Delay and Continue Timers

When a message is received or transmitted while scanning, there is a
short delay before scanning resumes. The delay after receiving a call
prevents another message from being received before a response can be
made. Likewise, the delay after transmitting a call ensures that you hear a
response to your call instead of another message occurring on some other
system or group. Note that scanning does not resume if it has been
disabled, such as by taking the microphone off-hook.
