MODE
EXPLANATION
No Scan
Eliminates distractions.
Full communications (transmit and receive) on selected talk group.
No calls received from other talk groups.
Normal
(Default)
The user can scan all talk groups in the active profile that are not locked out as long as
there is demand on the site.
Priority (P1 and P2) groups are user selectable.
Receive calls from more than one talk group, if available from the current site.
Allows dragging of the selected talk group, P1, P2, and default emergency talk groups to
the site on which the radio is registered. (If other calls are available at the site, they also
can be heard but they will not be actively dragged.)
The default emergency talk group, as well as any emergency-enabled talk groups, is only
dragged if it is in emergency mode.
Fixed
Functions the same as Normal Scan Mode except the priority groups are fixed to the
selected profile’s pre-defined P1 and P2 groups (configured via the UAS). In this mode,
P1 and P2 groups CANNOT be locked out.
