Scan Modes
Scanning is a Dealer programmable feature that allows you to monitor a number of channels. Your radio
communications Dealer will help you define a scanning mode and your channel “scan list”.
Once the scan list has been established, initiate scan by pressing the SCAN button. The SCAN icon will show in
the lower right corner of the display to confirm radio scanning.
Normal Channel Scan
If a conversation is detected on any of the channels in the scan list, the radio will stop on that channel and you
will be able to hear the conversation. In normal scan, you can transmit on that active channel during the
programmable scan delay time. (The scan delay time is the amount of time the radio will stay on that channel
once activity has ceased. Dealer programmable, 4 - 7 seconds is typical).
The radio will resume scanning once the scan delay time has expired, and will continue to scan until scanning
stops by pressing the SCAN button. In scan mode, if radio power is turned off and on, the radio will return to the
scan mode until scanning stops by pressing the SCAN button.
Priority Scan TX
A single channel may be programmed as the “Priority” channel. Priority channel activity takes precedence over all
other conversations. During the scan mode, if a P-T-T is initiated, the radio will transmit on the Priority channel. The
radio will constantly monitor this channel while scanning and when stopped on an active channel. If a call is
detected on the priority channel, the radio will automatically move to, and remain on, the Priority channel.
Priority Lookback Scan
A single channel may be programmed as the “Priority” channel. The radio will constantly monitor this channel
while scanning and when stopped on an active channel. If a call is detected on the Priority channel during a
conversation, the radio will automatically move to, and remain on, the Priority channel. Priority channel activity
takes precedence over all other conversations.
Priority Select Scan
A selected channel becomes the “Priority” channel. As you change the channel, that channel’s frequency will
become your new Priority channel. Priority channel activity takes precedence over all other conversations.
Nuisance Delete
During receiving a signal or scan delay time, if the MON (monitor) button is pressed, the current receiving channel
is deleted in scan list and is no longer scanned. When the power is turned off and on, the deleted channel is
restored to the scan list.
Busy Channel Lockout
When the RX signal is being received, the radio’s transmitter is disabled.
Marked Idle
When used in conjunction with Busy Channel Lockout (BCLO), the radio will allow a transmission if the correct
tone is present with the received signal.
TX Delay
The transmission will remain active for approximately 180 milliseconds even though the P-T-T bar is released
when using CTCSS Tones. This eliminates squelch tail.
Time-Out-Timer (TOT)
The purpose of the time-out-timer is to prevent any single person from using a channel for an extended period.
The time-out time can be programmed from 10 seconds to 990 seconds.
Time-Out-Timer Penalty (TX Inhibit)
When time-out-timer is applied, transmission will be inhibited after the time-out-time time expires. This TX inhibit
time can be selected and programmed by your radio communications Dealer from 1 second to 100 seconds. For
instance, when the time-out time is set to 3 minutes and T-O-T penalty is set to 5 seconds, if you continuously
transmit for 3 minutes, the radio will stop transmitting. A tone will sound with each P-T-T bar press until the 5
second TX inhibit time expires.
Press the P-T-T bar after the TX inhibit time expires to resume transmitting.
Two-Tone Decode
Each channel can be programmed with two-tone decode selections: Individual Call, Group Call and Super Group
Call. Your radio communications Dealer can program your radio(s) for this feature. To activate or reset the twotone decode, press and hold the AUX button for 3 seconds. After two-tone is decoded, an alarm will sound if
two tone alarm is turned on.
Weather Alert Detect(1050 Hz Detect)
Checks for the 1050 Hz of Weather Alert tone Signal issued by the National Weather Service. Your radio will
look back to the last used weather channel every 5 seconds. If the 1050 Hz is detected, WX ALERT will blink on
screen with alert alarm, then change to WX mode. To stop WX ALERT blinking and alarm, press any bution.
VOX (Voice Operated TX)
Allows your radio to transmit with the sound of your voice for hands-free operation. Your radio has a VOX
sensitivity level adjustment for noisy or windy conditions. The VOX icon will be displayed when option is active.
P/A Mode
Allows your radio to become a public address system with an optional external speaker connected. In this mode
only microphone audio heard over the optional external speaker when the P-T-T bar is pressed.
Mode Operation and Function Set Up
Depending on how your Dealer has programmed your radio, you may be able to change certain modes
and functions of your radio. Consult with your radio communications Dealer regarding which functions
are available with your radio.

enter normal operation mode. If power-on detects an error to data in the last memory, the
EEEEPP EERRRR
display will appear, and an error tone will beep.
Channel Change
Press and release the up or down. Your display will change with each channel selection, and will vary
depending on how your Dealer programmed each channel description. A press and hold of up or down

Transmit
Press the P-T-T bar to transmit on the microphone; release to receive. Both TX (transmit) and RX (receive)
are indicated by display icons. When the VOX option is set and activated by voice, the radio transmits; if
voice input stops, the radio maintains TX for around 2 seconds, then returns to receive mode.
Channel Option View
In receiving mode, if the MON (monitor) button is pressed for more than 2 seconds, the RX tone option
