To toggle the delay setting for a channel, press./DELAY.
Notes:
. Delay is automatically set as the default for each channel when you turn on the scanner.
. The delay function operates differently when monitoring trunked radio systems. For more information, see
“Trunked Delay Function” on Page XX.
LOCKING OUT CHANNELS OR FREQUENCIES
You can lock out channels to force the scanner to skip and ignore any traffic while scanning. You can also
lock out up to 50 frequencies while searching to skip undesired transmissions.
Locking Out Channels
To lock out a channel while scanning, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on the channel.
To lock out a channel manually, select the channel then press L/OUT so L appears in the scanner’s display.
Notes:
. You can still manually select and monitor locked-out channels.
. Locking out a channel with an active trunking control channel will disable monitoring of that trunking
system.
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually select the channel and press L/OUT so L disappears.
Reviewing the Lock-Out Channels
To review all locked out channels, press MAN, and then repeatedly press FUNC and then L/OUT. The
scanner will advance to the next locked out channel each time you press FUNC, and then L/OUT.
Locking Out Search Frequencies
To lock out a frequency during a search, press L/OUT when the scanner stops on that frequency. The
scanner will lock out the frequency and continues searching.
Notes:
. You can lock out as many as 50 frequencies in each search bank. If you try to lock out more, Memory full!
will appear in the display, and you will be unable to lock out any more frequencies until some have been
cleared. See “Clearing a Locked-Out Search Frequency” on Page XX”.
. If you lock out all frequencies in one search bank and only this search bank is activated, All ranges Locked
out! appears in the display and the scanner will not search.
