before searching for a new channel. If Channel Switch Speed is set to "Fast", the
current channel is only monitored for up to 2 time-out periods before channel
switching begins.
Important:
Channel Selection
Enabling "Manual Select" allows you to set the channel search order the 7530
will use if communication quality drops and channel switching is required. If this
parameter is enabled, the 7530 uses the channel switching lists specified in the
Manual Switch Table. If this parameter is disabled (unchecked), the hand-held uses
a standard algorithm to decide which channel it should switch to in the event of poor
channel quality.

"Fast" switch speed is most effective where coverage areas are
largely overlapping. If the coverage areas barely overlap, have
dead spots, or if the 7530 frequently operates on the fringe of cov-
erage, this parameter should be set to "Slow".
It is not recommended that the "Manual Select" parameter be used
without a clear understanding of how to order the channel
sequences for optimum performance.
