SYSTEM SCAN

preceding section). For example, if System 1/Group 2 were displayed
when scanning was turned on and a call is received on System 3/
Group 4, System 3/Group 4 are displayed and the call is received. If a
response is then made to that call, the transmission occurs on System
3/Group 4. However, if the response is not made until after scanning
resumes, the transmission occurs on the revert system/group (System
1/Group 2 in this case). This configuration may be programmed if
while scanning, responses must be made to messages occurring on
different systems and groups.
Fixed - When Fixed Revert is programmed, the transceiver always
transmits on the revert system/group, even when responding to a call.
Therefore, if Fixed Revert was programmed for the preceding
example, the transmission would occur on System l/Group 2, not
System 3/Group 4. To respond to the call, the selected system/group
would have to be changed manually using the System and Group keys.
The system/group of a call can also be made the revert system/group
by turning off scanning before scanning resumes. This configuration
may be programmed if you normally only monitor other calls while
scanning and most transmissions occur on the revert system/group.
System and Group Lockout
Systems and groups can be locked out of system and group scanning
by the LCK key. Pressing this key changes the lockout status of the
system or group that was changed last. For example, if System 2 is
selected by pressing the “S” switch and then LCK is pressed, System 2 is
locked out of scanning (if it was unlocked). Then if LCK is pressed again,
System 2 is unlocked and so on.
A locked out system is indicated by next to “SYS” in the display,
and a locked out group is indicated by the same symbol next to “GRP”.
When system scanning (“IN SCAN” displayed), the system lockout indi-
cation is displayed if any system is locked out. Likewise, the group
lockout indication is displayed if any group in a scanned system is locked
out. To check which system or groups are locked out, halt scanning by
pressing the SCN or Auxiliary switches. Then step through the
programmed systems and groups while watching the lockout indicators.
