Each button can be programmed to select up to two features, depending on the type of button press:

• Short press—quickly pressing and releasing the programmable buttons,

• Long press—pressing and holding the pro- grammable buttons for a period of time (at least 1 1/2 seconds),

• Hold down—pressing and holding down the programmable buttons while checking status or making adjustments.

The tables on pages 18 through 20 summarize the programmable features available and shows the page number describing the feature.

In the “Button” column, have your dealer write down the programmable buttons next to the features that have been programmed to them.

Use the abbreviations (for example, A for Side Button 1, D for Top Button, etc.) shown in the radio illustration at the front of this manual.

Also, where a choice exists, have your dealer indicate whether the button press is short press (SP) or long press (LP).

Check with your dealer for a complete list of features your radio supports.

SCAN

AUTO GROUP SCAN G (LTR TRUNKED OPERATION ONLY)

Your radio is equipped with the Scan feature, which allows you to search for, lock onto, and monitor voice activity on trunked talkgroups and conventional channels.

There are three types of Scan available in your radio:

• Auto Group Scan

• All Group Scan

• System Scan

TALKBACK

When activity is detected during any type of scan, scanning stops and the active talkgroup or channel appears and remains on the display until scanning resumes. Your dealer can program the amount of time you can respond (or “TALKBACK”) to the caller before your radio resumes scanning.

You must press the PTT button to participate in the call; otherwise, scanning continues to the other talkgroups or channels.

Auto Group Scan automatically scans talkgroups within an LTR zone as programmed by your dealer. Auto Group Scan can be either non-prioritized or prioritized.

• Non-prioritized Auto Group Scan automatically scans all talkgroups programmed with Auto Group Scan.

• Prioritized Auto Group Scan automatically scans the selected talkgroup and all lower 4-numbered talkgroups. For example, if talkgroups 1, 3, and 4 have been programmed by your dealer with Auto Group Scan and talkgroup 4 is selected, the radio automatically scans talkgroups 1, 3, and 4, and skips talkgroup 2.

To start Auto Group Scan:

Select a talkgroup that has been programmed for Auto Group Scan by your dealer.

Note: You do not need to press a

preprogrammed Scan button.

If a talkgroup or channel continually generates unwanted calls (a “nuisance” channel), use the preprogrammed Scan button to temporarily delete the talkgroup or channel from the Scan list.

To temporarily delete the channel/ talkgroup:

1 While the radio’s receiving activity is on the

nuisance channel, press and hold the Scan button until you hear a high-pitched tone (valid key press).

2 Release the Scan button. The nuisance

channel has been temporarily deleted from your Scan list.

Restoring a Channel/Talkgroup Back to the Scan List

EDITING A SCAN LIST (SYSTEM SCAN OPERATION ONLY)

One Scan list is assigned to each of the 16 positions on the Zone/Channel Selector knob. Each Scan list can contain up to 16 talkgroups and/or channels. The same talkgroup or channel can be included in several Scan lists, and the same Scan list can be assigned to several Zone/Channel Selector positions.

When you edit a Scan list, you can either add, delete, or prioritize talkgroups or channels:

Position 2 Position 2

To restore a previously deleted talkgroup or channel back to the Scan list, restart the scan operation or turn your radio off and on again.

Note: In Conventional operation only, even if

there is activity on a non-priority channel, your radio automatically switches to an active priority channel and indicates the activity with a short tone.
