Scanning Programmed Channels
Before you can scan, you must first program channels. See
the appropriate programming section for complete
instructions.
To begin scanning, simply turn on your scanner or, if the
scanner is not currently scanning, press
SCAN
. The scanner
checks each system you have programmed that is not locked
out and stops if there is activity.
SCAN
scrolls across the
display, right to left.
When the scanner receives a signal on a programmed
channel, it stops on that channel and displays the channel
information (text tag, channel number, trunk mode).
Locking/Unlocking Banks
When you are scanning conventional banks, the scanner
displays the digit corresponding to all unlocked banks. To lock
out a bank so that the scanner does not scan its channels,
press the number that corresponds to the bank. The scanner
replaces that bank’s number with a dash.
To unlock locked-out banks, simply press that bank’s number
again. The scanner displays that bank’s number and includes
it when scanning.
Note:
You cannot lockout all banks. One bank must be
unlocked at all times.

while scanning, press

that channel or manually select the channel and press
L/O

To unlock the channel, manually select it and press
L/O
again.
Note:
You cannot lockout all channels in a bank. One
channel must remain unlocked. If you want to lock out
an entire bank, see the previous section.
Restoring All Locked Out Channels
To simultaneously unlock all channels, press
HOLD/MAN
,
then press and hold
L/O
for 2 seconds. The scanner beeps
twice and unlocks all channels.
