ENDING THE SCAN
To stop scanning, briefly press the SCAN key. A low beep will be heard and 'SCAN' will
disappear from the display. As long as the radio was not on a busy channel, it will return to the
last channel you selected, otherwise it will stay on the busy channel.
USING THE GROUP SCAN MODE
Group Scan allows you to transmit and receive normally on your priority (working) channel, but
between breaks in the conversation, the TX6200 will scan and listen to several other channels.
The receiver will continue to scan the other channels ONLY WHILE THERE ARE NO SIGNALS
ON THE PRIORITY CHANNEL.
If a signal appears on the priority channel it will override any signals being received on any of
the other channels. In addition, if you press the Push-To-Talk switch at any time, the radio will
transmit on the priority channel in the usual way.
SETTING UP THE GROUP SCAN
To setup your radio for Group Scan:
1. Select the Group Scan mode by pressing the F key followed immediately by the OS/GS key.
"GS" is displayed.
2. Program your Priority channel memory with your preferred working channel.
3. Program the required "other" channels into your Group Scan memory.
SCANNING IN THE GROUP SCAN MODE
To scan in the Group Scan mode, briefly press the SCAN key. A high beep will be heard,
'SCAN' will appear in the display and the radio will begin scanning.
NOTE: If there are no channels programmed in the Group Scan memory when you press the
SCAN key, a low beep will be heard and the command will be ignored.
When scanning, the TX6200 scans all the channels programmed into the Group Scan memory,
with the priority channel being scanned after every fourth channel (dealer programmable option,
if you require different timing for your priority channel, please contact your dealer).
• If your radio pauses on a busy channel and you don't wish to listen to that conversation,
briefly press the or channel selector key. The radio will skip over that channel and resume
scanning from the next channel in the sequence.
