The scanner scans through all channels (except those you have locked out) in the active channel storage
banks (see "Turning Channel Storage Banks Off and On" on Page XX and "Locking Out Channels and
Frequencies" on Page XX).
Turning Channel Storage Banks Off and On
To turn off channel storage banks while scanning, press the bank's number key so the bank's number
disappears. For example, to turn off bank 1, press 1. The scanner does not scan any of the channels within
the banks you turned off.
To turn on channel storage banks while scanning, press the number key until the bank's number appears. For

Monitoring a Single Channel/Power Save Circuit
You can monitor a single channel with your scanner by navigation to that channel while in manual mode. The
scanner will receive traffic on the selected frequency.
Your scanner features a power save circuit that is automatically activated any time you manually select a
channel. The power save mode works by allowing the receiver to "sleep" briefly while waiting for a call on the
selected channel.
USING CTCSS
When your scanner stops on a conventional frequency that is configured for CTCSS, it checks for a match
between the transmitted CTCSS code and the code that is stored with the channel memory. If the transmitted
and stored codes match, the scanner stops on the transmission and allows the audio to pass to the speaker.
If the codes do not match, the scanner resumes scan operation. If the codes do not match, the scanner
resumes scan operation If the special "search" code is in use, the scanner will instantly display any detected
CTCSS mode. You can store the detected code into the channel memory by pressing ENT while the code is
displayed.
Programming channels for CTCSS
CTCSS allow you to program frequencies into your scanner that are used by more than one group in your
