Using the Scanner Memories
Scanning Memory Banks
To scan the memories you have programmed, press SCAN. The scanner
scans all unlocked programmed memories in enabled memory banks,
stopping on a memory when it detects a transmission. To turn on/off
memory banks while scanning, press the number button that corresponds
to the memory bank you want to enable or disable.
Locking/Unlocking Memories
You can lock memories so that they are not scanned, even if their bank is
turned on. Simply press L/O when the scanner stops on a transmission on
the frequency or manually select the memory, then press L/O. The scanner
turns on the L/O icon when it is set to a memory that is locked out.
To unlock a memory, manually select the memory, then press L/O. The scanner
turns off the L/O icon and includes the memory when scanning its bank.
To unlock all memories, press and hold L/O for 2 seconds, the scanner
beeps twice and the
L/O icon disappears.
Using Priority Scan
You can set one memory in each bank as a priority memory. If you turn on
the Priority feature, the scanner will check the priority memories in enabled
banks every 2 seconds, even if it has stopped on a transmission on
another memory.
To set the memory in a bank to be the priority memory, manually select the
memory then, while holding on the memory, press E/PGM to put the
scanner in program mode and press PRI. The scanner turns on the PRI
icon when it is stopped on a memory designated as priority.
To turn on Priority Scan, press PRI while the scanner is scanning or
holding on a memory (but not in program mode). You will notice a short
break in audio every 2 seconds as the scanner checks the enabled priority
memories. If there is a transmission on a priority memory, the scanner will
immediately tune to that memory.
Setting Channel Delay
You can set the scanner to pause for 2 seconds at the end of a
transmission on a memory. This is useful to help prevent missed replies.
Delay is turned on by default when you program a memory. To turn Delay
off (or back on), first, select the channel. Then, press DELAY.
The scanner turns on the DELAY icon for memories that have been
programmed with delay.
