Chapter 6  Frequency Scanning
 
 
Frequency scanning can be achieved using one of two methods : the first 
method involves scanning of pre-programmed memory channels; the second 
method permits the user to scan all frequencies between a pre-set upper 
and lower scan limit. Both methods of frequency scanning follows. 
 
All-Frequency scanning 
To allow All-Frequency scanning, the user must first program the upper and 
lower scanning limits. The scan limits are simply the highest and lowest 
frequencies that will be scanned. To program these limits, perform the 
following steps : 
 
1. Press the PRG (Program) key. 
2. Press the SCAN key. ("PRG SCAN+" should appear in the lower right-
hand corner of the display window.) 
3. Using the SHF key and the UP and DOWN arrows, select the upper scan 
limit. 
4. Press the SCAN key again. ("SCAN-" should appear in the display 
window.) 
5. Using the SHF key and UP and DOWN arrows, select the lower scan limit, 
then press ENT
 
The upper and lower scan limits have now been programmed. To activate 
the scan feature, return the radio to manual operation and press the SCAN 
button. If the display shows "SCAN+", the radio will scan from the lower limit 
to the upper limit. If "SCAN-" is displayed, the unit will scan from the upper 
limit to the lower limit. To change from "SCAN+" to "SCAN-" or vice versa, 
press SCAN
 
 
 
NOTE 
When programmed, the upper and lower scan limits will also act as the 
upper and lower operating limits of the radio. The radio cannot now be 
programmed to operated above or below the scan limits.

Memory Scanning
 
The RCI-5054DX has 10 non-volatile (i.e., memory resident) memory 
locations which can be programmed with any available frequency within the 
operating band of the radio. The scan function of the unit can be 
programmed to scan these memory channels. The radio will then scan only 
those memory channels. The radio will then scan only those memory 
channels which have been programmed. 
 
The first step in utilizing the memory scan function is programming the 
desired frequencies into the radio memory. This can be accomplished by 
performing the following steps : 
 
1. With the radio operating in the manual mode, press the PRG (Program) 
key. 
2. Press the MEM key. "PRG" should be displayed in the lower right-hand 
corner of the LCD display. In the upper left portion of the display, "MEM" 
should be displayed. Directly below MEM, a number between 0 and 9 will 
be displayed. This number represents the memory location currently 
being displayed. Pressing the MEM key will increase the memory counter 
to the next memory location and the contents of that memory location will 
be displayed. 
3. Using the SHF key and the UP and DOWN arrows, enter the frequency to 
be stored in the memory location displayed. After the desired frequency 
has been entered, press ENT
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all of the memory locations to be programmed. 
5. After all desired memory locations have been programmed with 
frequencies, return the unit to the manual mode of operation by pressing 
the MAN key. 
6. To initiate memory scanning, press MEM and then SCAN. As previously 
discussed, the display will show "SCAN+" or "SCAN-" to indicate 
whether the radio is scanning from the lowest to the highest memory 
location or vice versa. To return the radio to normal (non-scanning) 
operation, press the MAN key.
