CONV Priority Scan
When Object Priority is set to Yes for one or
more CONV objects, the scanner will sample
the CONV objects for activity periodically while
scanning and monitoring other objects. This
sampling will cause a brief muting of received
audio when it occurs while another object is
active. The more CONV objects that are set for
Priority, the longer this audio muting will be, since
it takes a certain amount of time to sample each
Priority CONV object for activity.
TGRP Priority Scan
When Object Priority is set to Yes for one or
more TGRP objects, the scanner will give those
TGRPs priority over other TGRPs while checking
a particular trunking system for activity. TGRPs
configured for Priority are checked for activity
before any other TGRPs are checked, and during
the reply delay time after non-priority TGRP calls.
Additionally, your PRO-106 decodes the
subaudible priority data that is present on analog
Motorola talkgroup calls (3600 baud control
channel systems only), and will switch to a priority
talkgroup when the data for that talkgroup is
found in the subaudible priority data.
Hit Counters
The Hit Counter feature that keeps track of
how many transmissions are received for each
object type. The Hit Counter for an object is
incremented each time a transmission is received
on an object, making it possible for you to
determine the objects that are the least and
most active. By default, the Hit Counter feature is
turned off.
