When the PA is enabled/disabled, “Ext PA On/Off” is 
displayed momentarily. The radio can also be 
programmed to display “Ext PA On” continuously. 
4.11 SCANNING
4.11.1  INTRODUCTION
Scanning monitors the channels in the scan list 
for messages the radio is programmed to receive. 
When a message is detected, scanning stops and the 
message is received. Shortly after the message is 
complete, scanning resumes (unless it has been 
disabled). 
If the microphone off-hook condition is detected 
(Hangup Box Monitor selected by programming), 
scanning stops and selective squelch (such as Call 
Guard CTCSS or NAC/group ID detect) is disabled on 
conventional channels. If the off-hook condition is not 
detected, taking the microphone off-hook has no affect 
on radio operation. When a call is received in the scan 
mode, the alias of the channel on which a call is 
received (and any other display parameters that may 
be programmed) are displayed until scanning resumes. 
The selected channel alias is then displayed if 
applicable.
There are two scan modes available: Standard 
(Priority) and Radio Wide. The operation of the stan-
dard type is unique to the type of channel selected, and 
the operation of the Radio Wide type is the same 
regardless of the channel type selected. Only one type 
of scanning can be enabled at a time. For example, if 
standard scanning is enabled and Radio Wide Scan is 
enabled, standard scanning is automatically disabled 
and vice versa. Refer to the following for more 
information.
4.11.2  STANDARD SCANNING
Standard scanning (also referred to as priority 
scanning) monitors only channels that are the same 
type as that currently selected. For example, if a 
conventional channel is selected, only conventional 
channels are scanned and likewise for SMARTNET/
SmartZone and Project 25 trunked channels. 
For more information on scanning functions in 
the Conventional mode, refer to Section 5.11, and for 
more information on how it functions in the other 
modes, refer to Section 6.12. Scanning is turned on 
and off by the Scan option switch as follows. If this 
switch is not programmed, scanning is not available.
To turn standard scanning on, press the SCAN 
option switch. Scanning is enabled when a rotating 
 is indicated in the right status display as follows 
and “SCAN ON” is briefly displayed.
To turn scanning off, press the SCAN option switch 
again. On conventional channels, this may also 
select another list, so several presses may be 
required (see Section 5.11). Scanning is disabled 
when “SCAN OFF” is briefly displayed and 
 is no 
longer indicated in the status display.
If the zone or channel is changed while scanning is 
selected, scanning continues on the same or a 
different scan list (see Section 4.12.1).
NOTE: Each SMARTNET/SmartZone and P25 trunked 
channel can be programmed so that scanning is auto-
matically enabled when the channel is selected.
4.11.3  RADIO WIDE SCANNING
NOTE: Use radio wide scanning only if two types of 
channels need to be scanned at the same time such as 
conventional and SMARTNET/SmartZone. Otherwise, 
use the more efficient standard scanning because there 
is less chance of missed calls.
Radio wide scanning monitors the channels in the 
preprogrammed radio wide scan list. This scan list 
may contain up to 16 channels of any type assigned to 
any zone (see Section 4.12.2). Radio wide scanning is 
turned on and off by the RWS option switch as 
follows. If this switch is not programmed, radio wide 
scanning is not available.
