SCAN 11
PROGRAM SCAN PARTIALLY SLOWED
You can specify a maximum of 5 frequency points for
each memory channel from P0 to P9 so that Program
Scan slows down the scanning speed. To specify the
slow down frequency points, fi rst program the start
and end frequencies into a memory channel
(P0 ~ P9).
1 Access Menu No. 23 to confi rm that the function is
ON (default is ON).
2 You can further confi gure the slow down frequency
width. Access Menu No. 24 to select the range
from 100 Hz to 500 Hz (default is 300 Hz).
Note: If you select, for example, 500 Hz for Menu No. 20,
the Program Scan slows down to a ±500 Hz width, centering
the frequency you marked below.
3 Press [M/V], then turn the MULTI/CH control to
recall the memory channel (P0 ~ P9) for which you
want to specify the scan slow down frequencies.
4 Turn the Tuning control to the center frequency
point that you want the Program Scan to slow
down. Then, press [Q-M.IN] to mark the slow
down frequency point.
• “ ” appears.
5 Repeat step 4 to specify the center slow down
frequency points.
You can specify a maximum of 5 frequency
points for each channel.
6 If you want to clear a slow down frequency point
that you previously stored, select the frequency
that you stored, then press [Q-M.IN] at this
frequency spot where “ ” appears.
A confi rmation beep sounds and “
disappears.
To clear all slow down frequency points, press
and hold [Q-M.IN].
7 Press [M/V] to return to VFO mode.
8 Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to start the Program Scan
with the slow down frequency point(s).
Note:
During Program Scan, you can turn the RIT/ XIT control
to adjust the scanning speed. Turn the control clockwise/
counterclockwise to slow down/ speed up the scan. The
Program Scan speed indicator appears on the main display
during Program Scan; P1 is the fastest speed and P9 is the
slowest.
You cannot change the Program Scan speed in FM mode.
Although you can specify the Program Scan slow down
frequency point in FM mode, it does not function.
When copying a Program Memory Channel, all frequency
points are cleared.
3 Turn the MULTI/CH control or press Mic [UP]/
[DWN] to select the memory channel (VGROUP–0
to VGROUP–9). As you select the Memory
Channel, “on” or “oFF” appears on the main
frequency display. “on” signifi es that the memory
channel is active for the Program Scan and “oFF”
signifi es that the memory channel group is inactive
for the Program Scan.
4 To activate the Program Scan frequency range,
select the desired VGROUP number by turning the
MULTI/CH control. Then, press [M.IN] to select
“on” for the VGROUP (channel). When a channel
is activated for Program Scan, “on” appears on the
display.
5 Press and hold [SCAN (SG.SEL)] or press [CLR]
to return to the current VFO mode.
6 Press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to start the Program
Scan.
To quickly move toward a desired frequency
while scanning, turn the Tuning control or the
MULTI/CH control, or press Mic [UP]/ [DWN].
• Turning the RIT/ XIT control clockwise
decreases the scan speed and
counterclockwise increases the speed, except
while in FM mode. The current scan speed is
shown on the display; P1 is the fastest speed
and P9 is the slowest.
While in FM mode, Scan automatically stops
on a frequency where a signal is present. The
transceiver will either remain on that channel
for a short time (Time-Operated mode) or until
the signal drops out (Carrier-Operated mode),
depending on which mode you select via Menu
No. 26 {page 50}.
7 To stop Scan, press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] or [CLR].
Note:
If you have turned the SQL control clockwise, far beyond the
squelch threshold while in FM mode, Scan may fail to stop at
a channel where a signal is present. If this happens, turn the
SQL control slightly counterclockwise.
If you press [SCAN (SG.SEL)] before storing any frequency
range for memory channels P0 to P9, the transceiver starts
VFO scan.
When the current receive frequency is within one of the
ranges that you selected with channel numbers, Scan starts
with the current frequency. The operating mode stored in the
memory channel is used.
The operating mode can be changed while scanning, but the
memory channel will be overwritten with the changed mode.
When the current Scan range is smaller than a single step of
the MULTI/CH control, turning the control clockwise causes
Scan to jump to the start frequency, and counterclockwise to
the end frequency.
Starting Program Scan switches OFF the RIT and XIT
functions.
While in FM mode, Program Scan monitors rounded off
frequencies regardless of the Menu No. 14 setting.
