Time Out:
The amount of time the receiver will stay on a Frequency while attempting to
detect a transmitter. If no transmitter is detected in the Time Out period, the
receiver will advance to the next frequency in its frequency table. This feature
allows faster scanning by truncating the scan time if no transmitter is detected in
the Time Out period. The user defines the parameter (Range = 001 – 300
seconds). Refer to section
14.0
for information on setting the Time Out value.
