scanned even if it is not within the currently selected zone.
Multi Scan monitors all channels of every zone, which have been
added to the scanning sequence.
List Scan monitors all channels within the specified range of
zones, which have been added to the scanning sequence. If set
up to scan the Priority channel, the Priority channel will be
scanned even if it is not within any of the zones in the list.
