ated so you can select just one to monitor.
To activate Scan Mode, just press the SCAN key on the keypad. Unless you
have explicitly changed Scan List membership, all of the objects you have
entered so far should be mapped to Scan List 01, and your scanner should
begin scanning these objects immediately when you press the SCAN key.
The scanner display indicates Scan Mode as follows:
Study the two rows under the “Scanning” display. Each space represents
the status of a Scan List in your radio. The top row of numbers represents
Scan Lists 1 through 10, and the bottom row represents Scan Lists 11
through 20. Unless you have already enabled other Scan Lists in your radio,
you will only see the number “1” in the top row. All of the other spaces con-
tain “•” symbols, which indicates that these other Scan Lists are currently
not enabled.
If you have included one or more TGRP objects in your programming, and
are within range of the trunked radio system for those TGRPs, you will see
the icon flash periodically while the radio is scanning. The icon indicates
that the scanner is receiving control channel data from a trunked radio sys-
tem.
To pause the scanner on an active object so that the scanner does not re-
sume scanning, press the PSE (Pause) key while the scanner is stopped on
that object, and press PSE or SCAN to resume scanning. Alternatively, you
may press MAN to monitor an active object. Although PSE and MAN both
stop the scanner on the active object, there are some small differences in
how they operate. PSE pauses the scanner but keeps the scanner in scan
mode, resulting in faster stop/start operation. MAN stops scan mode com-
pletely, and allows you to browse the file system to select other objects to
monitor.
While the scanner is Manual Mode, you can browse through the stored ob-
jects in your scanner and select one object to monitor. Use the
5
and
6
keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad to scroll through the objects assigned
to the current Scan List. The
4
and
3
keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad
are used to browse up and down through the Scan Lists, respectively. Only
Scan Lists that contain objects are shown when browsing. A quick low-high
wrap beep is played when the scanner reaches the last occupied Scan List
and wraps back to the beginning.
