Priority Scanning

Priority scanning allows you to scan and monitor channels while the re-
ceiver periodically checks for calls on a pre-selected ("priority") channel.
You may want to use this feature if you want to scan different channels,
but don't want to miss a call for you on a primary dispatch, emergency or
tactical frequency. After a call has been received on the priority channel,
operation returns to the programmed default channel scheme, as mentioned
before. Only one channel at a time can be selected as the priority channel.
To assign the priority channel;
¦ Turn the radio OFF, then depress the S/DW button while turning the
radio back ON again. "PROG" will momentarily appear on the display,
after which it will revert to the currently selected channel (this indi-
cates you are in the programming mode). If user-access is disabled
"INH" will appear briefly.
¦ Use the CH knob to select a channel which you wish to assign the
priority status, then press and hold in the S/DW button more than 1
second. A small "P " will now appear at the top left corner of the dis-
play whenever this channel is selected, along with an accompanying
"beep".
¦ If you wish to change the priority status;
1. Delete the priority status by pressing and holding the S/DW button
more than 1 second.
2. Rotate the CH knob to select the new priority channel, then assign
the priority status by pressing and holding the S/DW button for
more than 1 second.
¦ After you have assigned the priority channel, turn the radio off, then on
again to return to normal operation.
When a priority channel has been selected, the scanner will check the
priority channel regularly as you scan the other channels. If a signal ap-
pears on the priority channel, the scanner will pause and operation will
jump to the priority channel. Otherwise, the scanner will pause on active
non-priority signals as previously described.
If a call comes in on a non-priority channel that you need to respond to, just
press the PTT switch while the scanner is paused on that channel. As long
as no call comes in on the priority channel, you can send and receive on the
other channel: scanning will resume when you finish and the channel clears.
