2. On selecting Custom Scan in the Scan Mode control, the Channel List control becomes editable.
The following fields become available for further configuration.
Field Description
Channel This field displays the channel's number and its frequency. This field
cannot be changed.
Bandwidth Use the drop-down list to select the channel's bandwidth. The
available bandwidths depend on the channel's frequency.
Scan Weight This field indicates the number of times the channel is scanned in a
scan cycle. A scan cycle is considered complete when each channel
in the scan mode is scanned at least once.
Note: By default, each channel is scanned for 1 second in each cycle.
When this value is set to 1 or more, it indicates the number of times
the channel is scanned in a scan cycle. A scan weight of 1 specifies
that the selected channel will be scanned once during each scan
rotation. A scan weight of 2 specifies that the selected channel will
be scanned twice and so forth. The scan sequence is determined by
the specified scan weights. All selected channels are initially
scanned once during the scan rotation. Any selected channels that
have weights of 2 or more are then scanned again at the end of
each rotation period for the number of times specified by the
weight value. For example, if channels 1, 6, and 11 are assigned scan
weights of 1, 2, and 2, the channel scan sequence is 1-6-11-6-11.
Another example is: if channels 1, 5, 6, and 11 are assigned scan
weights of 2, 1, 3, and 3, then the channel scan sequence is
1-5-6-11-1-6-11-6-11.
When this value is set to a value that is < 1, it indicates that the
channel must be scanned for the set fraction of a second.
By default, all channels are selected for scanning. You can use the check box next to the Channel
control to select or unselect all the channels listed in this control. Use the check box next to each
channel in this list to either scan or prevent this channel from being scanned in each scan cycle.
