PRIORITY - sets and turns on and off priority for a particular channel. MODE - changes the band mode (AM, NFM, or WFM). STEP - changes the frequency step (5, 12.5, or 50 kHz). RESET - resets the default band mode and frequency step. DIRECT - starts a direct frequency search. L/OUT - lets you lock out selected channels or frequencies. L/O RVW - lets you review locked-out channels or frequencies. DELAY - programs a 2-second delay for the selected mode. Number Keys - each key has a single-digit label and a range of numbers. Use the digits on the keys to enter the numbers for a channel or a frequency. Use the range of numbers above the key (201-300, for example) to select the channels in a channel- storage bank. See "Understanding Banks/Memories", below. WEATHER - scans through the ten preprogrammed weather channels. SOUND SQUELCH - sets the scanner to continue to scan if it stops on a carrier signal with no voice or other sound. OFF/VOLUME - turns the scanner on or off and adjusts the volume. SQUELCH - adjust the scanner's squelch. DOT - enters the decimal point when you enter a frequency. CLEAR - clears an incorrect entry. LIMIT - sets the frequency range you want to search. UP ARROW or DOWN ARROW - searches up or down from the currently displayed frequency. MONITOR - accesses the 100 monitor memories. TUNING knob - turn to tune through channels or frequencies. Turn TUNING faster to increase the speed at which you tune. SCAN - scans through the channels. MANUAL - stops scanning to let you directly enter a channel number or frequency. TUNE - lets you use the scanner's rotary tuner to tune through frequencies. PROGRAM - lets you program frequencies into channels. AUTO - automatically programs frequencies into channels. ENTER - enters frequencies into channels. A LOOK AT THE DISPLAY The display has indicators that show the scanner's current operating mode. A good look at the display will help you understand your scanner. SCAN - appears when you scan channels. MANUAL - appears when you manually select a channel. SEARCH - appears during a direct search and a limit search. PRIORITY - appears when the priority feature is turned on. PROGRAM - appears when you press PROGRAM while selecting a channel to store a frequency in, or while selecting a search bank. WX - appears when you scan the ten preprogrammed weather band channels. UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW - appear when the scanner is scanning, when you press UP ARROW and DOWN ARROW while the scanner is doing a limit or direct search, when you tune through weather channels, or when you store frequencies. MON - appears with a number (1-100) to show which monitor memory you are listening to. P - appears when the scanner is set to the priority channel. SEARCH BANK - appears with numbers (1-10). Numbers with a bar under them show which search banks are turned on for a limit search. BANK - appears with numbers (1-10). Numbers with a bar under them show which channel - storage banks are turned on for scanning. See "Understanding Banks/Memories" , below. CH - appears with a number (1-1000) to show which of the scanner's 1,000 channels it is tuned to. LOCK-OUT - appears when you lock out a channel or frequency. MHz - appears with digits to show which frequency your scanner is currently tuned to. DELAY - appears when scanning stops at a channel you have programmed for a 2-second delay. AM - appears when the scanner scans a frequency set to the AM mode or when you change a frequency to the AM mode. See "Band Mode and Frequency Step" on Faxback Doc. # 31532. NFM - appears when the scanner scans a frequency set to the narrowband FM mode, or when you change a frequency to the narrowband FM mode. See "Band Mode and Frequency Step" on Faxback Doc. # 31532. TUNE - appears when you press TUNE to use the scanner's rotary tuner. AUTO - appears when the scanner automatically stores frequencies into channels. kHz - appears with digits to show which frequency step (5, 12.5, or 50) the scanner is set to. -d- - appears instead of the channel number during a direct search. Error - appears when you make an invalid entry. Sor. - appears when the scanner sorts frequencies See "Sorting Frequencies" Within a Bank". A-FULL - appears when you select a full bank, or when you finish sorting a full bank. See "Automatically Storing Frequencies" on Faxback Doc. # 31531. AC - appears with a number to show the number of empty channels in a bank. DUPL - briefly flashes when you try to program a duplicate frequency within a channel.
