OTHER PROGRAMMING FEATURES
Scan
Scan allows you to monitor other channels to detect
conversations. When the radio detects a transmission,
it stops scanning and goes to the active channel. This
allows you to listen and talk to people in that channel
without having to change channel manually. If there
are transmissions on another channel, you will not
hear that activity once the radio has stopped
scanning. Once the activity on transmitting channel
stops, the radio waits for 5 seconds before resuming
scan again.
• To start scanning, press the SB1 or SB2
button.
Notes: Scan has to be programmed either to SB1
or SB2 button via CPS. SB2 is by default
Scan/Nuisance Channel delete button.
• To stop scanning, short press the SB1 or SB2
button (programmed for scan) again.
• By pressing the PTT button while the radio is
scanning, the radio will transmit on the channel
which was previously selected before Scan is
activated. If no transmission occurs within 5
seconds, scanning resumes.
• If you want to scan a channel without the
Interference Eliminator Codes (CTCSS/DPL),
set the code settings for the channels to ‘0’ in
the CTCSS/DPL Programming Selection Mode
Notes: Whenever the radio is set to Scan, the LED
Indicator blinks a Red Heartbeat.
Editing Scan List
Scan List can be edited by using the CPS. For more
information refer to “Customer Programming Software
(CPS)” on page 43
Nuisance Channel Delete
Nuisance Channel Delete allows you to temporarily
remove channels from the Scan List. This feature is
useful when irrelevant conversations on a ‘nuisance’
channel ties up the radio’s scanning feature.
To delete a channel from the Scan List:
• Start Scan mode by short pressing the SB1 or
SB2 (programmed for scan) button.
