Scanning Systems
To begin scanning programmed systems, press Scan.
The UBCD396T scans all unlocked systems in all
activated quick-key groups and any searches
unlocked for search and scan.
Notes:
If no systems are programmed, or all systems are
locked out, an error message appears. Program a
system or select a system to scan.
When scanning multiple systems, the UBCD396T
scans systems according to the assigned quick
key. Systems assigned to quick key 1 are
scanned first, then 2, 3, 4, etc. Systems not
assigned to a quick key are scanned last, then
unlocked searches. Within a quick key, systems
are scanned in the order they were assigned.
Within a system, channels are scanned according
to the assigned channel group, with the same
priority as described above for systems.
The UBCD396T scans a system for the duration
you set using the System Hold Time option (see
“Setting the System Hold Time” on Page 72). For
trunked systems, the scanner moves to the next
system after the hold time expires, the current
transmission ends, and the channel delay expires.
Conventional systems operate similarly, but all
unlocked channels are scanned at least one time
regardless of the hold time setting.
Each search range is searched for the amount of
time you set using the “Set Hold Time” option.
See “Setting the System Hold Time” on Page 72
for more information.
