Page 24 HX600S 7. 3 PROGRAMMABLE PRIORITY SCAN The priority scanning feature allows the radio to scan while also keeping watch on a particularly important "priority channel. " The following channels can be set as the priority channel: 16, 09, and MARINE Preset Channel. To set the priority channel, hold down the [16/9] key and press the [MEM] key. The channel will change from 16 to 09 to Preset Channels 0 through 9 with each press of the [MEM] key. When the [16/9] key is released the displayed channel will be set as the priority channel (the large "P" icon will appear at the left side of the channel number). For priority scanning, hold down the [SCAN] key during normal scanning. Scanning will proceed between the memorized channels and the priority channel. The priority channel will be scanned after each programmed channel. "P" is shown on the left side of the channel number during priority scanning. As an example of priority scanning, let us say that marine channels 06, 07, and 08 are memorized in the transceiver's scan memory. Priority scanning will proceed in the following sequence: [CH06] [Priority Channel] [CH07] [Priority Channel] [CH08] [Priority Channel] [CH06] [Priority Channel] . . . . . . Even when the transceiver stops and listens to the signal of a programmed channel, the transceiver will shift to a "dual watch" mode between this channel and the priority channel. Therefore, your priority watching of the designated channel is not compromised when the scanner has paused on an active channel. Hold down the [SCAN] key to change the priority scanning to normal scanning, and then press the [SCAN] key to stop the scan and return to normal operation. HX600S Page 25 7. 4 DUAL WATCH The Dual Watch feature allows the radio to watch for a transmission on the priority channel and another selected Marine channel until a signal is received. The priority channel is determined in section 7. 3 "PROGRAMMABLE PRIORITY SCAN". To start the Dual Watch feature, select a channel to be dual watched with the priority channel and press and hold the [SCAN] key. The radio checks the priority channel for voice traffic every one second. A small "DW" icon is will be shown blinking on the left of the display during scanning. To cancel the Dual Watch feature, press the [SCAN] key. 7. 5 TRI WATCH The TRI Watch feature allows the radio to watch for a transmission on the priority channel, and the secondary calling channel (channel 09) and another selected Marine channel until a signal is received. The priority channel is determined per the discussion in section 7. 3 "PROGRAMMABLE PRIORITY SCAN". To start the TRI Watch feature, select a channel and press and hold the [SCAN] key. The radio checks the priority channel, CH09 and the selected channel for voice traffic. A small "DW" icon is will be shown blinking on the left of the display during scanning.
