Using the Delay Function 
You can configure your conventional, non-trunked channels for a 2 second delay to 
avoid missing reply traffic on the same channel. When delay is set for a conventional 
channel, the scanner will pause for reply traffic before resuming the scan operation.   
To toggle the delay setting for a channel, press./DELAY 
  Notes   
• 
Delay is automatically set as the default for each channel when you turn on the 
scanner. 
• 
The delay function operates differently when monitoring trunked radio systems. For 
more information, see “Trunked Delay Function” on Page 85. 
Locking Out Channels or Frequencies 
You can  lock out channels to force the scanner to skip and ignore  any traffic while 
scanning. You can also lock out up to 50 frequencies while searching to skip undesired 
transmissions. 
Locking Out Channels 
To lock out a channel while  scanning, press  L/OUT  when the  scanner stops on the 
channel. To  lock out a channel manually,  select the channel then press  L/OUT  so  L 
appears in the scanner’s display. 
  Notes   
• 
You can still manually select and monitor locked-out channels. 
• 
Locking out a channel with an active trunking control channel will disable monitoring 
of that trunking system.   
To remove the lockout from a channel, manually select the channel and press L/OUT so 
L disappears.
