When you press SCAN, the BC244CLT scans each programmed frequency for activity (skipping channels that are locked out) at the rate of about 12 channels per second. As the unit scans, the word SCAN moves across the display. When the scanning stops on an active frequency, it remains on that channel as long as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanner stays on the channel for two more seconds, waiting for a responding transmission. If no responding transmission is detected, the scanning cycle resumes. 6

Scanning Overview
The BC244CLT has 30 memory channels. Each can be programmed to store one
frequency within the band of frequency coverage. (For a listing of frequency ranges
and bands, see Technical Specifications on page 26.)
When you press
SCAN
, the BC244CLT scans each programmed frequency for
activity (skipping channels that are locked out) at the rate of about 12 channels per
second. As the unit scans, the word
SCAN
moves across the display.
When the scanning stops on an active frequency, it remains on that channel as long
as the transmission continues. When the transmission ends, the scanner stays on
the channel for two more seconds, waiting for a responding transmission. If no
responding transmission is detected, the scanning cycle resumes.
