Scan
The Scan feature enables a two-way radio to continuously receive each channel for
activity. Press the programmed Scan key to initiate scanning channels in the order as
they appear in scan list. Status Indicator flashes green during the scan process, and
solidly glows when activity is detected and signaling condition is satisfied on a channel.
Press the key again to exit scanning. When scanning is active, the radio will continuously
scan for activity on scan list members. Once activity is detected on a channel, scanning
will pause on the active channel for you to receive activity. The channels available for
scanning are programmed by your dealer.
No Priority Channel
Providing that there is a scan list with 6 channels and all channels are non-prioritized, the
normal scan operation would proceed in the following sequence, as shown in Figure 1.
