SELECTIVE CALLING
ENDING THE SCAN
To cancel the Group Scan mode, briefly
press the SCAN key. A low beep will be
heard and ‘SCAN’ will disappear from
the display. The radio will return to the
priority channel.
USING THE GROUP SCAN
AS A SECOND OPEN SCAN
There may be applications where you
have no need for the priority channel
and would prefer to have two Open Scan
modes with separate channel groups in
each. This would allow you to scan either
channel group without the interruption
caused by monitoring a priority channel.
Your TX6200 can be Dealer programmed
to convert the Group Scan function into
a second Open Scan mode. If you would
prefer this feature over the present
Group Scan option you should contact
your GME Dealer to arrange for this
feature to be enabled.
When the second Open Scan mode
is enabled, the original Open Scan
mode becomes Scan 1 while the new
additional Open Scan mode becomes
Scan 2. To select the required scan
mode briefly press the F key immediately
followed by the OS/GS key. ‘OS’ is
displayed for Scan 1 and ‘GS’ for Scan 2.
The two Open Scan modes are identical
in operation. To program and operate
each Open Scan mode refer to the
section earlier on ’Open Scan.’
NOTE: Enabling or disabling the second
Open Scan mode is not a user selectable
option. Once enabled by your Dealer, the
additional Open Scan mode becomes a
permanent part of the TX6200’s features and
replaces the standard Group Scan function. If
you find later that you need the Group Scan
function re-enabled, you will need to return
your TX6200 to your Dealer.
WHAT IS SELCALL
Your TX6200 has a Selective Calling
(Selcall) system that operates like a
telephone. Your radio is pre-programmed
with its own unique Selcall Identification
number. If this number is called by
another radio, your TX6200 will beep to
alert you.
If you do not want to hear any other
activity while waiting on a channel, you
can push the QUIET key. The radio will
then remain quiet to all incoming signals
until your Selcall number is called.
The TX6200 will allow you to store up
to ten of your most frequently called
numbers in memory and each number
can be labelled with a 5-letter name for
easy identification.
