2.2.4 Triwatch
The Triwatch function is similar to Dual Watch, but this scans

the Priority channel. To set the User channel, refer to section
2.2.10 .
To enter Triwatch mode, press and hold the D/W key for 2 sec-
onds. The “D/W” legend and “tRI”will be displayed on the

selector anti clockwise.
2.2.5 Scan (SCN) / Memory Scan (MS)
This function scans through each channel sequentially until a
signal is detected above the squelch level set. Once the signal
ends or drops below the squelch level, the radio will continue
scanning. Press SCN to enter scan mode. The LCD will show

NOTE The channel cannot be changed and transmission is inhibited
while in Scan mode. To restore normal operation, either
press SCN, 16 or rotate the channel select knob anticlockwise.
If the scan has stopped on a busy channel, rotating the channel
selector clockwise will move the scan sweep on to the next
channel.
Memory Scan (F then SCN)
This operates in the same way as the Scan function, except that
it will only scan channels that have been entered into the Scan
Memory. If no channels have been entered into the memory
then this function will not be available (refer to section 2.2.2).
