SCAN
If the Scan function is programmed, Conventional zones or channels can be
scanned by pressing the key programmed as Scan. Scan can be used as either
Single Scan or Multi Scan.
• Single Scan monitors only the channels of the currently selected zone, which have
been added to the Scan list. If set up to scan the Priority channel, the Priority channel
will be scanned even if it is not within the currently selected zone.
• Multi Scan monitors all channels of every zone, which have been added to the Scan
list.
To activate Scan, press the key programmed as Scan.
• The icon and “ ” (TK-7160/ TK-8160) or “ ” (TK-7162/ TK-8162) appears on the
display.
• When a call is received, scanning stops and the zone and channel digits appear.
Press the microphone PTT switch and speak into the microphone to respond to the
call. The transceiver will continue scanning after a predetermined time delay if the
PTT switch is released and no further signal is received.
To stop scanning, press the Scan key again.
Note: In order for Scan to function, there must be at least 2 channels added to the scanning
sequence. If there are less channels than this, Scan will not operate.
PRIORITY SCAN
Your dealer may have set up a Priority channel on your transceiver.
During Priority Scan, the transceiver will continuously monitor the Priority
channel while receiving a signal on another channel. When a signal is received
on the Priority channel, the transceiver immediately switches to that channel.
The icon appears on the display, indicating that the Priority channel is the
current channel.
The transceiver remains on the Priority channel until the signal is no longer
present. When the signal “drops out”, the transceiver will remain on the channel
momentarily before scan resumes. This delay time is programmed by your dealer.
