GENERAL OPERATION

Revised August 2002
Part No. 001-5300-007CD-NR
zone (see scan list description in Section 3.17.1).
Radio wide scanning is turned on and off by the
RWS
option switch as follows. If this switch is not
programmed, radio wide scanning is not available.
• To turn radio wide scanning on, press the RWS
option switch and “RSCN ON” is briefly displayed.
In addition, is displayed the same as with stan-
dard scanning.
• To turn radio wide scanning off, press the RWS
option switch again and “RSCN OFF” is briefly
displayed and is no longer displayed.
• If the zone or channel is changed while radio wide
scanning, scanning continues normally.
3.16.4 SCAN RESUME DELAY
When a message is received or transmitted while
scanning, there is a delay before scanning resumes.
The delay after receiving a call prevents another
message from being received before a response can be
made. The delay after transmitting a call ensures that a
response is heard instead of another message occurring
on some other channel.
Separate delay times are programmable for radio
wide and standard scanning. With radio wide and
conventional standard scanning, delays of 0-7.5
seconds are programmable in 0.5-second steps. With
SMARTNET/SmartZone standard scanning, a delay of
2-10 seconds can be programmed in 0.5-second steps.
3.16.5 TRANSMITTING IN THE SCAN MODE
If the transmitter is keyed while scanning is
enabled, transmissions occur on various channels as
follows.
Conventional Operation - Transmissions can occur on
the priority, selected, or receive channel. Refer to
Section 4.11 for more information.
SMARTNET/SmartZone Operation - If scanning is
halted to receive a message, programming deter-
mines if transmissions occur on the selected or
receive channel. Transmissions at other times occur
on the selected channel.
3.16.6 NUISANCE CHANNEL DELETE
With standard scanning, channels can be tempo-
rarily deleted from the scan list, for example, if
messages on a channel become annoying. This feature
is not available with radio wide scanning. Channels
can also be permanently added or deleted by editing
the scan list as described in Section 3.17.5. Proceed as
follows to temporarily delete a channel:
NOTE: The selected channel and also conventional
priority channels cannot be deleted from the scan list.
1. While receiving a message on the channel to be
deleted, press and hold the
SCAN option switch
until a tone sounds (approximately 2 seconds).
2. The channel is then deleted and scanning of the
remaining channels in the scan list resumes.
3. Deleted channels are added back into the scan list if
any of the following events occur:
• Scanning is turned off and then on again using the
SCAN switch.
• Transceiver power is turned off and then on again.
• The scan list is reselected by changing channels
(SMARTNET/SmartZone) or using the
SCAN
option switch (conventional).
3.17 SCAN LISTS
NOTE: A scan list is simply the channels that are
scanned when scanning is enabled.
3.17.1 STANDARD MODE SCAN LISTS
NOTE: The selected channel is always scanned.
With all operating modes, as many standard scan
lists as are required can usually be programmed (up to
256). The only limitation is the available memory.
Each list can include up to 256 channels/talk groups.
