[. . . ] 30 6 SCAN OPERATION Programming scan name Each pair of scan edge channels can be programmed with an alphanumeric scan name for easy recognition, and can be displayed during scan selection. e Hold down [S. MW](V/M) for 1 second to enter the select memory write mode. · 1 short and 1 long beep sounds. · The " " icon and memory channel number blink. t While holding down [FUNC], rotate [DIAL] to select a desired character. · The selected character blinks. y Rotate [DIAL] to move the cursor to the left or to the right. u Repeat steps t and y until a desired 6-character scan name is displayed. i Hold down [S. MW](V/M) for 1 second to program the name and exit the programming mode. · 3 beeps sound. r While holding down [MODE], rotate [DIAL] to select the "S NAME" item. · The item can also be selected by repeatedly pushing [MODE]. · After releasing [MODE], a line blinks under the first digit, and the " " icon blinks. · Available characters A to Z, 0 to 9, ( , ) , *, +, ­, , , /, |, = and space. Therefore, the programmed scan name is automatically assigned to another edge channel. 31 SCAN OPERATION 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Programming other contents The programmed scan can store the scanning step, receive mode and attenuator settings. e Hold down [S. MW](V/M) for 1 second to enter the select memory write mode. · 1 short and 1 long beep sounds. · The " " icon and memory channel number blink. t Rotate [DIAL] to select a desired option. Or, select the "-- -- -- --" display when erasing the contents -" from the option. · If "-- -- -- --" is selected in this step, the program scan uses the -" VFO settings. yHold down [S. MW](V/M) for 1 second to program the name and exit the programming mode. · 3 beeps sound. During the full/band scan: The selected tuning step, received mode and attenuator settings in each frequency band are used. During the programmed/programmed link scan: The programmed tuning step, received mode and attenuator settings in each programmed scan edge are used. r While holding down [MODE], rotate [DIAL] to select the "TS, " "MODE" or "ATT" item when programming the tuning step, the receive mode or the attenuator setting. · The item can also be selected by repeatedly pushing [MODE]. Attenuator setting After released. 32 6 SCAN OPERATION Memory/all bank/bank link/bank scan q Push [V/M] to select the memory mode. e Hold down [SCAN](MODE) for 1 second to enter the scan type selection mode. r Rotate [DIAL] to select a desired scanning type. · Select "M-ALL" for all memory scan, "B-ALL" for all bank scan, "B-LINK" for bank link scan or "BANK-x" for bank scan (x= A to R, T, U, W, Y; only programmed bank groups are displayed). t To start the scan, push [SCAN](MODE). · The scan pauses when a signal is received. During memory/ all bank/bank link scan During bank scan [DIAL] Hold down for 1 sec. Rotate · All memory scan · Bank link scan IMPORTANT: To perform a memory or bank scan, two or more memory/bank channels MUST be programmed, otherwise the scan will not start. · All bank scan · Bank scan Selectable between "A" to "R, " "T, " "U, " "W" or "Y, " if programmed (p. 20) See page 53 for details of the bank link programming. 33 SCAN OPERATION 6 Auto memory write scan This scan is useful for searching a specified frequency range, and automatically storing busy frequencies into memory channels. The same frequency ranges used for a program scan are also used for an auto memory write scan. Hold down [SCAN](MODE) for 1 second to enter the scan type selection mode. Rotate [DIAL] to select a desired scanning type. · Select "ALL" for full scan, "BAND" for band scan, "P-LINK x" for programmed link scan (x= 0 to 9), "PROGxx" for programmed scan (xx= 0 to 24; only programmed scan edge numbers are displayed). D During auto memory write scanning: · When a signal is received, the scan pauses for approximately 5 seconds and the frequency is stored into an auto memory write channel group (AW000­AW199). - 2 short beeps sound when stored. · The scan resumes after frequency storing. · When all channels are stored, the scan automatically stops and 1 long beep sounds. 6 D Re-calling the stored frequencies: q Push [V/M] to select the memory mode. w Push [BAND] repeatedly, or while holding down [BAND], rotate [DIAL], to select the auto memory write channel group. · "AW" appears. Push [SCAN](MODE) to start the scan. w Push [V/M] to turn the auto memory write function ON or OFF. · The " " icon blinks.
