15SCANScan is useful for monitoring signals on the transceiver channels. While scanning,the transceiver checks for a signal on each channel and only stops on a channel ifa signal is present.To begin scanning, press the key programmed as Scan.• The icon appears on the display.• The channels included in the scan list are scanned.• When a signal is detected on a channel, Scan pauses on that channel. The transceiverwill remain on the busy channel until the signal is no longer present. When the signal“drops out”, the transceiver will remain on the channel momentarily before Scanresumes. This delay time is programmed by your dealer. If a signal is received duringthe delay time, the transceiver will remain on the same channel.To stop scanning, press the Scan key again.Note: In order for Scan to operate, there must be at least 2 channels added to the scanningsequence. If there are less channels than this, Scan will not operate.TEMPORARY CHANNEL LOCKOUTIf a key is programmed with the Scan Delete/Add function, each channel can belocked out of the scan sequence manually.During scan, you can temporarily remove specifi c channels from the scanningsequence by selecting them and pressing the Scan Delete/Add key.• The icon (right side) no longer appears on the display for that channel.• The channel is no longer scanned. However, when scanning is ended and restarted, thechannels will reset and the channel will again be in the scanning sequence.PRIORITY SCANA Priority channel must be programmed in order for Priority Scan to function.When using a single Priority channel, the transceiver will automatically change tothe Priority channel when a call is received on it, even if a call is being received ona normal channel.When using dual Priority channels, Priority channel 1 is given precedence overPriority channel 2. So, if a call is received on Priority channel 1 while a call isalready on Priority channel 2, the transceiver will automatically change to Prioritychannel 1.• “ ” appears on the display when the channel is Priority channel 1, “ ” appears whenthe channel is Priority channel 2, and “ ” appears when the channel is both Prioritychannel 1 and 2.
