another Scan List. Racing fans may wish to group objects for different cars,
drivers, teams and tracks into separate Scan Lists.
By Favorites
The Favorites (FAV) Scan List is a powerful tool that can be used to quickly
narrow (or expand) your scanning profile.
In addition to the normal Scan List map, each Scannable Object menu in-
cludes a FAV (yes/no) item. When FAV is set to YES, the object is a member
of the Favorites Scan List in addition to the other Scan Lists that it is mapped
to in the normal Scan List map.
When you press the FAV key, the radio suspends scanning of all objects in
the radio except for those that are set to FAV=YES in their object menus.
You can also add any object to the FAV Scan List by pressing the FUNC key,
then FAV while the object is active during SCAN mode, or while parked on
the object in MAN and PROGRAM mode.
It is also possible to clear the FAV Scan List completely by pressing PGM,
then the
GLOB
softkey, then scrolling to down to the Clear FAV menu item.
Press the SEL key to set FAV=NO for all objects, press the
YES
softkey to
confirm the action, then press the Save softkey to save your changes.
For example, you may wish to leave the FAV Scan List empty, and add your
favorites while scanning by pressing FUNC, then FAV when objects of inter-
est are active. This can be useful during a major event, where you wish to
quickly isolate objects of interest by pressing FUNC FAV when they are ac-
tive, then pressing FAV to scan only those objects.
The Favorites Scan List is also useful to group objects that are very close to
where you live, so that when you press the FAV key, you are only scanning
objects that are in your immediate vicinity, making the radio less active and
increasing the chances that you will not miss important local activity.
Use your imagination and you will probably come up with many other ways
to use the Favorites Scan List feature.
Mapping Objects to Scan Lists
By default, every new object you create is mapped to be a member of Scan
List 01. Scan List membership is defined in an object’s parameters menu
and is typically found at the beginning of the menu.
To change Scan List membership when creating a new object, scroll up or
down to the
Scan Lists:
parameter in the object's menu before sav-
ing the object. With the
Scan Lists:
field highlighted (as indicated
by the blinking cursor), use the
34
keys on the 5-way pushbutton pad to
scroll through the Scan Lists until you find the Scan List that you wish to en-
able or disable membership for the object, and use the SEL button to toggle
membership for that Scan List on or off. The asterisk (*) next to the Scan List
number indicates that the object is a member of that Scan List. Press the
