6714 SCANPROGRAMSCANProgram Scan monitors the range between the startand end frequencies that you have stored inConventional memory channels 290 to 299. Refer to“STORING FREQUENCY RANGES” {page 62} fordetails on how to store the start and end frequencies.You can select a maximum of 10 memory channels(Memory channels 290 to 299) and sequentially scanthe ranges that you stored in these channels. ProgramScan starts with the smallest channel number andrepeats the sequence as described below.1 Press [A/B] to select VFO A or VFO B.• If you are operating the sub-receiver, press[VFO/M] to select VFO mode.2 Press [FUNC], [SCAN/ SG.SEL].3 If no Program scan channel is selected, all memorychannel numbers (from 290 to 299) are displayed insmall fonts. Only the one’s digit of each memorychannel is displayed on the main dot-matrix display.0 represents channel 290, 1 represents channel 291,2 represents channel 292, etc.4 To select the Program scan frequency range,press a numeric key 0 to 9. For example, press[3] for channel 293 only or press [3], [5], [7] toselect channels 293, 295, and 297. When achannel is selected for the Program Scan, thenumber is displayed in a larger font.To temporarily deselect all the channels (290 to 299)so that you can perform the VFO Scan, press[•/ DCS/SEL]. (Refer to “VFO SCAN” on page 66)Note:uAt least one of the valid Program Scan channels (from 290 to 299)must be programmed and selected to perform the Program Scan.If no Program channel is selected or available for the ProgramScan, the transceiver performs the VFO Scan.uWhen performing the Program Scan on the sub-receiver, thefrequencies must be within the sub-receiver frequency rangelimitations. Otherwise, the Program Scan cannot be performed.The same conditions apply to the main transceiver.5 Press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] to start the ProgramScan.• To quickly move towards a desired frequencywhile scanning, turn the Tuning control or theMULTI/ CH control, or press Mic [UP]/[DWN].• When in a mode other than FM mode, turningthe RIT/ SUB control clockwise decreases thescan speed, and counterclockwise increasesthe speed. The current scan speed is shownon the display; P1 is the fastest speed and P9is the slowest.• While in FM mode, Scan automatically stopson a frequency where a signal is present. Thetransceiver will either remain on that channelfor a short time (Time-operated mode) or untilthe signal drops out (Carrier-operated mode),depending on which mode you select via MenuNo. 10 {page 68}.6 To stop Scan, press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] or [CLR].Note:uIf you are operating on the sub-receiver and perform the ProgramScan, the sub-receiver automatically skips the memory channelsthat cannot be scanned on the sub-receiver. The sameconditions also apply to the main transceiver.uIf you have turned the MAIN SQL or SUB SQL control clockwise,far beyond the squelch threshold when in FM mode, Scan mayfail to stop at a channel where a signal is present. If thishappens, turn the MAIN SQL or SUB SQL control slightlycounterclockwise.uIf you press [SCAN/ SG.SEL] before storing any frequency rangefor memory channels 290 to 299, the transceiver starts VFOscan.uWhen the current receive frequency is within one of the rangesthat you selected with channel numbers, Scan starts with thecurrent frequency. The operating mode stored in the memorychannel is used.uWhen the current receive frequency is outside all the ranges thatyou selected with the channel numbers, Scan starts with the startfrequency stored in the smallest channel number.uThe operating mode can be changed while scanning, but thememory channel is overwritten with the changed mode.uWhen the current Scan range is smaller than a single step of theMULTI/ CH control, turning the control clockwise causes Scan tojump to the start frequency, and counterclockwise to the endfrequency.uStarting Program Scan switches OFF the RIT and XIT functions.uWhile in FM mode, the Program Scan monitors rounded offfrequencies regardless of the Menu No. 04 setting.uYou cannot change the scan speed on the sub-receiver.PROGRAMSCANPARTIALLYSLOWEDYou can specify a maximum of 5 frequency points foreach memory channel from 290 to 299 so that theProgram Scan slows down the scanning speed. Tospecify the slow down frequency points, first programthe start and end frequencies into a memory channel(290 ~ 299) {page 62}.1 Access Menu No. 07 to set the function ON(default is OFF).2 You can further configure the slow down frequencywidth. Access Menu No. 08 to select the rangefrom 100 Hz to 500 Hz (default is 300 Hz).Note: If you select, for example, 500 Hz for Menu No. 08, theProgram Scan slows down to a ±500 Hz width, centering thefrequency you marked below.3 Press [VFO/M] to recall the memory channel(290 ~ 299) for which you want to specify thescan slow down frequencies.4 Press [–] or [+] to confirm the start ([–]) or end([+]) frequency.5 Turn the Tuning control to the center frequencypoint that you want the Program Scan to slowdown. Press QUICK MEMO [M.IN] to mark theSlow down frequency point. The “ ” icon appears.
