Setting Priority Channels
You can set one conventional channel in each bank as a priority channel. When you turn
on the priority scan option (see “Priority Scanning” on Page 22), the scanner automatically
checks these channels every 2 seconds to see if there is activity. If there is, the scanner
immediately switches to the priority channel.
Note
: The scanner does not check trunked channels, priority channels if the channel is
locked out, or in locked-out banks.
By default, the first channel of each bank is set as priority. To change the priority channel,
manually select the channel you want to set as the priority channel. Then hold down
PRI
for about 2 seconds. The scanner beeps twice and the new priority assignment is made.
