7014 SCAN3 Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL].4 The Call channel and the selected VFO frequencyor memory channel are monitored alternatively.5 To stop Scan, press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] or [CLR].VISUALSCANWhile you are receiving, Visual Scan allows you tomonitor frequencies near the current operatingfrequency. Visual Scan graphically displays how allfrequencies in the selected range are busy. You willsee a maximum of 7 segments, for each frequency(channel) point that represent relative S-meter levels.Determine the scan range by selecting the centerfrequency and the number of channels. The defaultnumber of channels is 61.n Using Visual Scan (VFO)1 Select the desired band for Visual Scan.2 Turn the Tuning control, or press Mic [UP]/[DWN], to select the operating frequency.• This frequency will be used as the centerfrequency.3 Press and hold [DISP] for approximately1 second to start Visual Scan (VFO).• The center frequency is displayed on themain frequency display and the currentscanning frequency is displayed on the subfrequency display. The operating mode andthe number of channels to be scanned aredisplayed on the main dot-matrix display.The sub dot-matrix display shows therelative S-meter level of each frequencypoint, vertically.• To pause Scan, press [DISP]. “P” appearson the main dot-matrix display. While theVisual Scan is paused, you can monitor thepaused frequency. Press [DISP] again toresume the Visual Scan.4 To change the current scanning frequency, turnthe Tuning control or press Mic [UP]/ [DWN].• The displayed frequency changes and thecursor moves.• Press [1MHz/ SEL] to make the currentscanning frequency the new centerfrequency.• You can move the frequency using the Tuningcontrol. If you want to revert to the originalcenter frequency, press [FM/ AM/ NAR].5 To quit Visual Scan, press [CLR] or[SCAN/ SG.SEL].n Changing the Number of Channels to Scan1 Press [MENU] to enter Menu mode.2 Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select MenuNo. 11.3 Press [+]/ [–] to select 31, 61 (default), 91 or181 channels for the number of channels toscan.4 Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.Note:uThe current frequency step of the MULTI/ CH control is usedfor the Visual Scan.uWhile performing the Visual Scan, the DUAL WATCHfunction {page 47} is temporarily disabled unless you areusing the 144 MHz or 430/ 440 MHz in FM or AM mode andthe Control Band for the main transceiver.uIf you start the Visual Scan from the frequency on the sub-receiver, the frequency is transferred to the main display,then the Visual Scan starts.uIf you start the Visual Scan in Memory Recall mode, thememory channel frequencies will be scanned.uVisual Scan stops when you transmit.uDepending on the transceiver conditions, Visual Scan andthe S-meter level may differ.n Using Visual Scan (Memory Channel)1 Press [MENU] to enter Menu mode.2 Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select MenuNo. 11.3 Press [+]/ [–] to select 31, 61 (default), 91 or181 channels for the number of channels toscan.4 Press [VFO/M] to enter Memory Recall mode.5 Press and hold [DISP] for approximately1 second to start Visual Scan (MemoryChannel).• The center memory channel number isdisplayed on the main frequency displayand the current scanning frequency isdisplayed on the sub frequency display.The operating mode of the center memorychannel and the number of channels to bescanned are displayed on the main dot-matrix display.
