I Busy cnannei Lockout Activated or deactivated by your dealer, this function prevents you from interfering with other stations that my be using a channel. Pressing microphone PTT while the selected channel is in use causes your transceiver to generate an audible warning tone. Your transceiver is inhibited in this situation so it will not transmit. Release microphone PTT to canel the alarm and restore the receive mode. I Time-Out Timer The purpose of the time-out timer is to automatically interrupt continuous transmissions atter a specified time elapses. Holding down microphone PTT lor longer than the programmed time causes the transceiverto stop transmitting and generate a warning tone. Releasing microphone PTT cancels the warning tone. ADVANCED OPERATIONS SCANNING CHANNELS If the Scan function is enabled, groups or channels can be scanned by pressing the key programmed as Scan. A Scan key can be programmed as either Single Scan or Multi Seen by your dealer. Single Scan monitors only the channels at a single group. Multi Scan monitors all channels of every group. When the Scan key is pressed, the SCN indicator and "SCAN' appear on the display and the scanning starts. When a call is received on one of scanning channels, scanning stops and the channel information appears on the display. Press PTI' switch and speak into the microphone to respond to the call. The transceiver will continue scanning after an adjustable time delay, if PTT switch is released, and no iunher signal is received. I Priority Scan Either Fixed priority scan or Selectable priority scan may be programmed by your dealer. . fixed Priority Scan: The pro-programmed channel is monitored in a certain interval while scanning. When the signal is being received on this priority channel while scanning, you will be transfered to this priority channel. - Selectable Priority Scan: After you select the priority channe using Channel UpIDown or Group UpIDown keys, press a Scan key, programmed by your dealer. The scanning starts and the selected priority channel is monitored in a certain interval while scanning. When the signal is being received on the selected priority channel while scanning, you will be transfered to this priority channel.
