NOTE 1. Commands are required to wait a response from the scanner, then, next command is accepted.
2. 3. All memory access commands are acceptable in only Program Mode.
Use PRG command to enter Program Mode, and EPG command to exit.
Error messages arent described for each command, but the scanner returns error message to the controller as follows.
1) Command format error / Value error 2) The command is invalid at the time 3) Framing error 4) Overrun error
: ERR[\r] : NG[\r] : FER[\r] : ORER[\r]
[\r] means "to hit the Enter key" or "to send the Return code". Several commands or responses with long format are described like multi-line because of the page width but their formats are only single line, actually.
In set command, only "," parameters are not changed.
6. 7. The set command is aborted if any format error is detected. [INDEX] or [xxx_INDEX] is the index of internal memory chain.
Dynamic Memory Allocation Structure always uses it as a handle to access data and to trace forward/reverse or up/down index. The range of the index is from 1 to maximum memory block (about 45000).
8. [FRQ], [BASEx] and [LIMIT_x] are frequency format.
It is showed by 8 digit number without decimal point. The order of the digits is from 1 GHz digit to 100 Hz digit. ex. 08510125 means 851.0125MHz
9. [TGID] shows TGID format. The formats depend on Trunked System Type.
See another Appendix to get further information. 10. [NAME] shows each custom name. If you set only a space character, the name will return to default name.
11. [LATITUDE] shows North or South Latitude.

Scanning Order

First, systems belonging to Quick Key 1 are scanned. Then systems that belong to Quick Key 2,,9,0,11,19,10,21,,99,90 are scanned in order. Systems with no Quick Key are scanned last. When the scanning of all systems ends, the scanner starts Service Search for any unlocked/enabled searches. The scanner searches Public Safety, News,. , and Special in turn. When Service Search ends, it starts Custom Search. The scanner searches Custom Search from range 1 to 10 in turn. After Custom Search ends, the scanner scans a system that is named Close Call Hits* *This is a system where the scanner automatically stores the frequencies found by Close Call. (See CC Hit with Scan for details. ) If Close Call Hits system has no frequencies, the scanner does not scan this system. After the scanner finishes scanning Close Call Hits system, the scanner scans from top system again. You can change the scanning direction by turning [Scroll Control]. The scanning order of the systems / sites belonging to the same Quick Key is the order registered to that Quick Key. The scanning order of the systems / sites belonging to no Quick Key is the order set to none. When a system / site is created, the scanner automatically sets the Quick Key to none. So, if you do not change the Quick Key setting, the scanning order will be the order of system / site creation. The scanning order of groups in a conventional system also depends in the order set to any Group Quick Key or none. Groups with no Group Quick Key set are scanned in the order of group creation. The scanning order of Channels in a conventional systems channel group depends in the order of Channel creation. However, locked out or disabled items* are not scanned. *Locked out or disabled items means locked out System / Sites, locked out Channel Groups, locked out Channels, disabled System/Site Quick Keys and disabled Group Quick Keys.

Scanning Operation Quick Key Operation
For Conventional Systems, the SQK is set at the system level. However, for trunked systems, the SQK is set at the site level instead of the system level. In the display, enabled SQKs show their number; disabled SQKs show *; SQKs with no system assigned show "-". During scanning, you can enable or disable single digit SQKs by pressing the corresponding [1 - 9, 0] key. For two-digit SQKs first press [. / no / pri], then enter the two digits to enable or disable that SQK. Systems belonging to disable SQKs are not scanned. *You cannot enable or disable an SQK if no system or site is assigned to it. *The displayed GQKs (channel Group Quick Keys) show the status of GQKs for the system currently being scanned. For example, the scanner displays as follows if the SQKs 3, 4, 6, and 9 are disabled.

S0: * * 5 * * 0 GRP 9 0

The details of scanning depend on whether the System is a conventional System or a trunked System. The SQKs Tens blinks when you press [. / no / pri] (until you enter the SQKs first digit).
S0: * * 5 * * 0 GRP If you do not press a digit within 2 seconds of pressing [. / no / pri], the entry times out and nothing is changed.
Scan for Conventional Systems
In conventional scanning, the scanner steps through each unlocked channel. If there is activity on the channel, the scanner monitors activity until the transmission ends. While monitoring the transmission, the first line alternates between the current system name and current group name every 1 second. The second line displays the current channel name. The Quick Keys for the current system and channel group blink. Furthermore, the attenuation setting, modulation and CTCSS/DCS data of the current channel are displayed.

System 1 Channel A

NFM C67. 0 S0: - - 5 - - 0 GRP 9 0

Group 1 Channel A

Even if the transmission ends, the scanner holds on the channel for the duration of the system delay time. After the system delay time elapses, if there is no transmission the scanner resumes scanning. *If CTCSS/DCS is applied to a channel, the received signal must match for the scanner to hold on the transmission. (Not for AM, WFM or FMB modulation.) The scanner continuously scans each system for the duration of the systems system hold time setting. However, the scanner scans all unlocked channels at least 1 time, even if this takes longer than the set time. The scanner will advance to the next system once the scanner scans all unlocked channels and the system hold time has elapsed.

PRIORITY SCAN

There are two kinds of Priority Scan. (See: Set Priority) Refer to Set Priority for setting Priority Channels.
This works in Scan Mode or Scan Hold Mode when the Priority Scan setting is on. In this condition, " PRI" icon appears. PRI
S0: GRP 1 - - - 5 - - - - When the scanner is scanning a conventional system, it interrupts every 2 seconds to check Priority Channels (P-Ch) of all unlocked conventional Systems for activity. If there are many P-Chs, Priority Scan interrupts normal scanning for a long time. Although any conventional frequency can be set as a priority channel, the scanner is unable to scan over 100 channels at once. If there are more than 100 unlocked priority channels, the first 100 channels will be scanned for priority scanning but others wont. The priority for P-Channels is determined by System and Group Quick Key settings. The highest priority is for P-Channels to which the SQK and GQK are "1". And the lowest priority is for PChannels to which the SQK is 90 and GQK is 0. Priority for P-Channels in the same channel group follows the order in which the channels were created. If there are no Priority Channels or all Priority Channels are locked out, the scanner displays "Priority Scan No Channel" and sounds an Error Tone. The scanner cannot work the Priority Scan. The scanner restarts normal scanning when you press any key. Priority Scan is set to off automatically. PRI
