2.9 Memory Scan mode

Memory Scan gives the option of scanning a preprogrammed

set of channels speciﬁed by the user (see sections 3.1.4 and

3.1.5).

Press Shift then 2 (Scan M) to enter Memory scan mode.

If Memory Scan is selected while the handset is off cradle, the

display will show “Place back on cradle”. If the handset is

replaced within ten seconds of selecting Memory Scan, it will

automatically initiate Memory Scan when the handset is

replaced.

The display will show “Scan M” on the display. If the radio

detects a signal, it will lock onto this and the large digits will

change to show the relevant channel (Fig 2.8) -

If the radio locks onto a busy channel, pressing OK will manu-

ally continue the scan. Memory Scan will otherwise automati-

cally restart when the channel becomes clear.

NOTE If only one channel has been entered into the memory then

initiating Memory Scan will retune the RS87 to the stored

channel.

NOTE All other stations will also show the Memory Scan display.

NOTE While in memory Scan mode, normal VHF functions are not

available. To exit Memory Scan press 16, ON/C or lift the

handset from the cradle.

2.9.1 Dynamic Memory Scan Delete

If the radio is constantly locking onto a busy channel when

scanning, this channel can be removed from the Memory Scan

channel set by pressing Shift then 2 while locked on that

channel.

The display will show “Channel Deleted” and the channel will

no longer be included in the scan cycle.
