14221-1800-2000, Rev. G
NOTE
NOTE
When using Preemptive Priority Scan, the frequencies in the list need to be unique.
6.14.1 Default, Priority 1, and Priority 2 Channels
6.14.1.1 Default Channel
This is the currently selected channel and is the channel you transmit on by default when you press PTT while the radio is actively scanning and is not responding to a just received call. Responding to a call the radio just received while scanning is called hang time. If hang time is set to 0 using RPM2, the r adio always transmits on the default channel in scan.
6.14.1.2 Priority 1 Channel
This channel will be scanned more often than other channels in the list and will be scanned in between every other channel in the scan list. An example scan sequence would be P1 (priority 1), C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, etc. In addition, the priority channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if the radio is actively receiving on C3 and activity is detected on P1, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P1.
6.14.1.3 Priority 2 Channel
This channel will also be scanned more often than others. An example scan sequence would be P1, C2, P1, C3, P1, C4, P2, C5, P1, C6, P1, C7, P1, C8, P2, C9 etc. In addition, this channel will be scanned even while actively receiving on a non-priority channel. For example, if t he radio is actively r eceiving o n C3 and activity is detected on P2, the radio will drop C3 and switch to P2. Additionally, activity on P1 can also preempt P2, but P2 cannot preempt P1.
6.14.2 Trunked/Conventional Scanning
Trunked/conventional scanning adds the ability to scan multiple conventional and P25 conventional channels while still maintaining trunked radio operation. The radio can scan a conventional scan list while still receiving a trunked control channel and receiving trunked calls. Selection of which conventional scan list is associated with a given trunked system is done using RPM2 a nd cannot be changed on the radio. However, a user with access to the necessary menu layout (see Section 5.8) can edit the scan list members (both trunked groups and conventional channels on the selected Conventional Priority System). As the number of conventional channels being scanned increases, the time between scanning each channel increases (roughly 250 milliseconds per channel), with the consequent increase in the number of calls that will late-enter. To avoid missing calls, it is recommended to keep the number of conventional channels being scanned to eight (8) or fewer.
The trunking site must have roaming set to Enhanced CC.
82
14221-1800-2000, Rev. G
NOTE
6.14.3 Vote Scan (Analog and P25 Conventional Only)
If vote scan is enabled via RPM2, the radio automatically selects the strongest signal ensuring that the best audio quality is delivered to the user. If vote scan is enabled, the radio is always scanning. You cannot stop scanning, start normal scanning, or monitor the channel. The scanning icon on the idle screen indicates that the radio is vote scanning versus, regular scanning.
If Talkaround is enabled, Vote Scan is dis ab le d un t il Talk around is disabled again.
6.14.4 Edit Scan List
Depending on the scan list options selected via RPM2, you may be able to add or remove channels/groups from the scan list.
To edit the scan list:
1. Press the Menu/Select button.
2. Press the left or right navigation buttons to display the SCAN menu.
3. Press the up or down navigation buttons to select SCAN LISTS.
4. Press the up or down navigation buttons to highlight the scan list and press the Menu/Select button.
5. Press the up or down navigation buttons to highlight channel/group.
6. Select OPTIONS.
7. Press the up or down navigation buttons to select ADD CHAN/DELETE CHAN, SET PRI1, SET
PRI2, REMOVE PRI, or NUISANCE/ADD BACK.
83
14221-1800-2000, Rev. G
When a channel is not grayed out in the list, DELETE CHAN appears. When a channel/group is grayed out (not in list), ADD CHAN appears.
8. Press the Menu/Select button to toggle selection.
6.14.5 Set or Remove Priority 1 and Priority 2 Channels
Priority channels are scanned more often than non-priority channels. Note that P1 and P2 can only be set if configured as “Keypad” and the scan list is not set to “Fixed” using RPM2.
To set or remove priority 1 and priority 2 channels:
1. Press the Menu/Select button.
2. Press the left or right navigation buttons to display the SCAN menu.
3. Press the up or down navigation buttons to highlight SCAN LISTS and press the Menu/Select button.

84
14221-1800-2000, Rev. G
6.14.6 Custom Scan Lists
The Mixed Zone Scan (MZS) feature gives the user the capability to scan based on a custom scan list that is assigned at the system level. The Custom Scan (CS) list can contain System and Channel/Group configurations across P25 Trunked, P25 Conventional, and Analog Systems. When a Custom Scan List is assigned to a P25T system, the radio can scan P25T, P25C and Analog systems. When assigned to a P25C or Analog system, the radio only scans conventional channels. MZS also gives the user the capability to scan beyond the selected system group set.
P25T Scan
When a custom scan list is assigned to a P25T system, the user can scan P25T, P25C, and Analog groups/channels. All P25T systems must have the same WACN, System ID, and Unit ID to be added to the custom scan list. If P25C and/or analog channels are added to the custom scan list, the radio will scan them using the Trunked/Conventional scan feature described in section 6.14.2, and will override any other conventional scan list that may have been programmed using RPM2.
P25C and Analog Scan
When a custom scan lists is assigned to a P25C or Analog System, the user can scan P25C and Analog channels. P25T systems are ignored.
Custom scan list can be created using RPM or at the radio. The radio supports up to 10 Custom Scan lists, with up to 100 channels/groups in each.
