SYSTEM AND GROUP SCANNING
General
Introduction
The scan feature monitors, in sequence, the systems and/or groups in
the scan list. When a message is detected that the transceiver is
programmed to receive, scanning stops and the message is received.
Shortly after the message is complete, scanning resumes (unless it has
been disabled). System and group scanning or group scanning only may
be used (see next page), and the operation of each type is as follows.
Refer to page 23 for more information on systems and groups.
System Scanning
- Detects calls on all systems in the system scan list.
If system scanning is not used, calls are detected on only the currently
selected system.
Group Scanning
- Detects calls on all groups in the group scan list.
These groups are from the selected system and also from scanned
systems if system scanning. If group scanning is not used, calls are
detected on only the selected group. In addition, calls may be detected
on higher priority LTR-Net and LTR groups (see “Priority Calls” on
page 45).
Scan On-Off
System and/or group scanning are turned on and off by pressing
FCN SCAN. When either type of scanning is enabled, is indicated in
the display (see following illustration). Then when group scanning is
actually occurring, dashes are displayed instead of a group number (if the
numeric display mode described on page 20 is selected). Group scanning
is not indicated if the alpha display mode is selected, and system scanning
is never indicated. The monitor mode must be disabled for scanning to
occur (see page 49).
