You can manually select any
channel in a channel storage
bank, even if the bank is turned
off.
Monitoring a Single
Channel/Battery Save
Circuit
You can monitor a single channel
with your scanner by navigating to
that channel while in manual
mode. The scanner will receive
traffic on the selected frequency.
Your scanner features a battery
save circuit that is automatically
activated any time you manually
select a channel. The battery save
mode works by allowing the
receiver to “sleep” briefly while
waiting for a call on the selected
channel. The battery save circuit is
disabled when the scanner is
tuned to a channel in program
mode.
Using CTCSS and DCS
Your scanner’s advanced, DSP
based CTCSS and DCS decoder
allows you to listen only to the
group that is of interest to you by
specifying the group’s specific
CTCSS or DCS code for a certain
frequency. CTCSS and DCS can
also help reduce instances where
interfering signals cause your
scanner to stop on one
channel.

When your scanner stops on a
conventional frequency that is
configured for CTCSS or DCS, it
checks for a match between the
Ô NOTES Ô
• You can use the
scanner’s delay
feature while
searching the search
bank. See “Using the
Delay Function” on
Page 66.
• You can set CTCSS
or DCS mode when
searching any search
range, except for
SR0, SR1, and SR4.
The scanner will
display detected
CTCSS or DCS
codes depending on
the mode setting. See
“Using CTCSS and
DCS” on Page 50.
• The scanner does not
search locked-out
frequencies while
searching ranges.
See “Locking Out
Channels or
Frequencies” on
Page 67.
• You can use the
PAUSE key to
temporarily pausethe
searchoperation.The
scanner will remain
on the frequency that
was active when
PAUSE was pressed
until you press
PAUSE again. You
can simply listen to
the radio traffic on the
paused frequency, or
perform copy
operations to save
the frequency to a
channel before you
resume your search
(see “Using
Frequency Copy” on
Page 61).
