About scanning
The scan feature is used to monitor groups of 
channels or talkgroups for activity of interest. This 
means that you are able to operate across multiple 
channels or talkgroups at the same time. For 
example, you may need to monitor your own 
conventional dispatch channel as well as other local 
area channels, such as a local sheriff and highway 
patrol channel.
Members of a scan group may be conventional 
channels (P25 or analog), trunked talkgroups, and 
vote groups, depending of the type of scan group. 
When scanning is active, the radio searches through 
member channels for activity. If activity is found, the 
radio remains on that channel or talkgroup, so that 
you can hear the activity, and respond if necessary. 
Once the activity has finished, the radio begins 
searching again.
Some channels or talkgroups, known as ‘priority’ 
channels or talkgroups, are scanned more often that 
others in the scan group. Calls from priority channels 
or talkgroups take precedence over those from non-
priority group members.
While the radio is scanning for activity, the orange 
LED glows and the animated 
 icon appears on 
the display.
When the radio stops on a channel or talkgroup where 
there is activity, the orange LED and the 
 icon flash.
In a background or talkgroup scan group, a scanning 
icon with a tick (
) indicates that the selected 
channel or talkgroup is a member of the scan group.
