Starting and Stopping Scan

When you start a scan, your radio cycles through the programmed scan list for the current channel looking for voice activity.

The yellow LED blinks and the scan icon appears on the status bar.

During a dual mode scan, if you are on a digital channel, and your radio locks onto an analog channel, it automatically switches from digital mode to analog mode for the duration of the call. This is also true for the reverse.

There are two ways of initiating scan:

• Main Channel Scan (Manual): Your radio scans all the

channels/groups in your scan list. On entering scan, your radio may – depending on the settings – automatically start on the last scanned “active” channel/group or on the channel where scan was initiated.

• Auto Scan (Automatic): Your radio automatically starts

scanning when you select a channel/group that has Auto Scan enabled.

Procedure: Press the programmed Scan button to start or stop Scan. OR Follow the procedure below.

1 Use the Left/ Right Navigation buttons to select a channel

programmed with a scan list.

2 g to access the menu. 3 b or c to Scan and press g to select. 4 b or c to Turn On and press g to select.

Responding to a Transmission During a Scan

Deleting a Nuisance Channel

During scanning, your radio stops on a channel/group where activity is detected. The radio stays on that channel for a programmed time period known as “hang time”.

Procedure:

1 If the Channel Free Indication feature is enabled, you

hear a short alert tone the moment the transmitting radio releases the PTT button, indicating the channel is free for you to respond.

2 Press the PTT button during hang time. The green LED

lights up.

3 Wait for the Talk Permit Tone to finish (if enabled) and speak

clearly into the microphone.

Wait for the PTT Sidetone to finish (if enabled) and

speak clearly into the microphone.

4 Release the PTT button to listen. 5 If you do not respond within the hang time, the radio returns

to scanning other channels/groups.

If a channel continually generates unwanted calls or noise (termed a “nuisance” channel), you can temporarily remove the unwanted channel from the scan list.

This capability does not apply to the channel designated as the Selected Channel.

Procedure:

1 When your radio “locks on to” an unwanted or nuisance

channel, press the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button until you hear a tone.

2 Release the Nuisance Channel Delete button. The

nuisance channel is deleted.

Deleting a “nuisance” channel is only possible through the programmed Nuisance Channel Delete button. This feature is not accessible through the menu.

Vote Scan

Contacts Settings

Vote Scan provides you with wide area coverage in areas where there are multiple base stations transmitting identical information on different analog channels.

Your radio scans analog channels of multiple base stations and performs a voting process to select the strongest received signal. Once that is established, your radio unmutes to transmissions from that base station.

The yellow LED blinks and the vote scan icon appears on the status bar.

To respond to a transmission during a Vote Scan, follow the same procedures as Responding to a Transmission During a Scan on page 27.

Contacts provides “address-book” capabilities on your radio. Each entry corresponds to an alias or ID that you use to initiate a call.

Each entry, depending on context, associates with one of four types of calls: Group Call, Private Call,. PC Call or Dispatch Call

PC Call and Dispatch Call are data-related. They are only available with the applications. Refer to the data applications documentation for further details.

NOTE:

If the Privacy feature is enabled on a channel, you can make privacy-enabled Group Call and Private Call on that channel. Only target radios with the same Privacy Key OR the same Key Value and Key ID as your radio are able to unscramble the transmission.

See Privacy on page 54 for more information.

Additionally, Contacts menu allows you to assign each entry to a programmable number key or more on a keypad microphone. If an entry is assigned to a number key, your radio can perform a

• Call ID

NOTE: You can add, or edit radio IDs for the Digital Contacts

list. Deleting radio IDs can only be performed by your dealer.

For the Analog Contacts list, you can only view the subscriber IDs, edit the radio IDs, and initiate a Call Alert. Adding and deleting capabilities can only be performed by your dealer.

Emergency Operation

An Emergency Alarm is used to indicate a critical situation. You are able to initiate an Emergency at any time on any screen display even when there is activity on the current channel.

Your dealer can set the duration of a button press for the programmed Emergency button, except for long press, which is similar with all other buttons:

• Short press – Between 0.05 seconds and 0.75 seconds

• Long press – Between 1.00 second and 3.75 seconds

The Emergency button is assigned with the Emergency On/ Off feature. Check with your dealer for the assigned operation of the Emergency button.

If short press the Emergency button is assigned to turn on the Emergency mode, then long press the Emergency button is assigned to exit the Emergency mode.

If long press the Emergency button is assigned to turn on the Emergency mode, then short press the Emergency button is assigned to exit the Emergency mode.

In addition, each alarm has the following types:

• Regular – Radio transmits an alarm signal and shows audio

and/or visual indicators.

• Silent – Radio transmits an alarm signal without any audio or

visual indicators. Radio receives calls without any sound through the radio’s speaker, until you press the PTT button to initiate the call.

• Silent with Voice – Radio transmits an alarm signal without

any audio or visual indicators, but allow incoming calls to sound through the radio’s speaker.

Only one of the Emergency Alarms above can be assigned to the programmed Emergency button or the Emergency footswitch.

Privacy

If enabled, this feature helps to prevent eavesdropping by unauthorized users on a channel by the use of a softwarebased scrambling solution. The signaling and user identification portions of a transmission are not scrambled.

Your radio must have privacy enabled on the channel to send a privacy-enabled transmission, although this is not a necessary requirement for receiving a transmission. While on a privacyenabled channel, the radio is still able to receive clear (unscrambled) transmissions.

Your radio only supports Basic Privacy.

To unscramble a privacy-enabled call or data transmission, your radio must be programmed to have the same Privacy Key as the transmitting radio.

If your radio receives a scrambled call that is of a different Privacy Key, you will hear a garbled transmission.

Notification List

This feature prompts an emergency to be raised if there is no user activity, such as any radio button press or activation of the channel selector, for a predefined time.

Following no user activity for a programmed duration, the radio pre-warns the user via an audio indicator once the inactivity timer expires.

If there is still no acknowledgment by the user before the predefined reminder timer expires, the radio initiates an Emergency Alarm.

Only one of the following Emergency Alarms is assigned to this feature:

• Emergency Alarm

• Emergency Alarm with Call

• Emergency Alarm with Voice to Follow

The radio remains in the emergency state allowing voice messages to proceed until action is taken. See Emergency Operation on page 40 on ways to exit Emergency.

Your radio has a Notification List that collects all your “unread” events on the channel, such as unread text messages, telegrams, missed calls, and call alerts.

The Notification icon appears on the status bar when the Notification List has one or more events.

The list supports a maximum of forty (40) unread events. When it is full, the next event automatically replaces the oldest event.

After the events are read, they are removed from the Notification List.

NOTE: Your radio suspends Scan when the Notification List is

displayed. Scanning resumes when your radio exits the Notification List. Press or wait for the menu timer to expire.

Your radio provides indications of states as follows:

• First-Time Alert – A tone sounds and the display shows

In Range after the channel alias.

• ARTS-in-Range Alert – A tone sounds, if programmed, and

the display shows In Range after the channel alias.
