s Emergency
Pressing this key for longer than the programmed "Emer-
gency Key Delay Time" causes the transceiver to enter the
emergency mode. The transceiver jumps to the pro-
grammed "Emergency System/Group" and transmits for
the programmed "Active Time".
The transceiver disables mic mute while transmitting.
After finishing transmission, the transceiver receivers for
the programmed "Interval Time". The transceiver mutes
the speaker while receiving. Following the above sequence,
the transceiver continues to transmit and receive.
If "Man Down Switch" has been programmed on the ra-
dio and the switch is activated, the radio enters Emergency
mode after the specified "Man Down Delay Time" expires.

The twelve-character dot matrix alphanumeric display
shows the system and group numbers. You can program
system and group names with up to ten characters in
place of these numbers. The left display is used as a de-
lete indicator (
) and the right is used for the selective
call (
) or scrambler ( _ ) function. The delete/add indica-
tor shows the systems locked out of the scanning se-
quence. Selective call and scrambler are optional func-
tions that can be programmed.
3. Scan Operating
3-1. System scan
System scan can be selected with the "Scan" key by pro-
gramming the scan feature. When the "Scan" key is
pressed and the "SCN"' mark appears, scan mode in en-
tered. Scanning starts from the system following the cur-
rently displayed system. When a call is received, scanning
stops, and the system and group are displayed.
When the system knob or programming key is touched
during scanning, the scan stops and the revert system or
group can be changed. Scanning resumes one second after
the key is released.
System scan consists of the following 2 types.
s Fix system scan
All the set systems except locked-out ones are scanned.
If the DEL/ADD feature is assigned to the programmable
key, it can be controlled from the front panel.
s List type system scan
A scan list can be set for each system.
The list to be scanned can be changed by changing the
display system.
If many system have been set, the scan speed can be
increased by narrowing the systems to be scanned with
scan lists.
3-2. System lockout
The system lockout feature is used to lock systems out
of the scan sequence, and can be selected by programming
in the following two ways:
s Fixed lockout
The system to be locked out is selected by programming.
When a locked system is selected, the Delete (
) indicator
appears on the left of the SYSTEM indicator. The revert sys-
tem is scanned even if it is locked out. If there is a locked
system, the Delete (
) indicator flashes during fixed scan-
ning.
s User selectable lockout
If the scan lockout feature is programmed to a key, the
user can lock systems out of the scan sequence with the
key. To lock a system out of the scan sequence, press the
key when the system is displayed. The Delete (
) indicator
is displayed on the left of the SYSTEM indicator.
