SYSTEM AND GROUP SCAN
37
Last Selected - The selected system/group does not change when calls
are received on other system/groups. Therefore, to respond to a message
not on the selected system/group, one of the following methods must be
used. With this configuration, the display may not indicate the system/
group on which the response occurs.
• Select the system/group of the call manually using the Select switch.
• Before scanning resumes, exit the scan mode by pressing the SCAN
switch. The system/group of the call then becomes the selected system/
group and it is not necessary to change it manually.
Last Received - The selected system/group changes to the system/group
of a call. Therefore, you can always respond to a call without having to
manually change the system/group. To return to the previously selected
system/group, manually select it using the Select switch.
Temporary Last Received - The system/group changes to the system/
group of a call for only the duration of the scan delay period (see
page 36.) Then when the delay expires and scanning resumes (if it is not
disabled), the selected system/group is again displayed. Therefore, you
can respond to a call without changing the selected system/group as long
as you do so before scanning resumes.
Fixed System/Group Transmit in Scan
Each bank can be programmed so that transmissions made in the
scan mode while scanning is occurring are on a preprogrammed system/
group. Note that scanning must be occurring (scrolling underline
displayed) when the transmitter is keyed. Since taking the microphone
off-hook normally disables scanning (unless off-hook detection is
disabled), the transmitter usually must be keyed with the microphone on-
hook.
If a transmission occurs under these conditions, the selected system/
group also changes. If the transmitter is keyed with scanning halted, the
programming described in the preceding section takes precedence.
