Frequency Scanning Page

The Frequency Scanning page enables viewing and defining the frequencies to be used by the scanning process.

Frequency Scanning Page

 

The Frequency Scanning page includes the following parameters:

Parameter

Description

Bandwidth (MHz)
(Current/Configured)

The frequency bandwidth used by the radio. The available options are: 1.75, 3.5, 5, 7 and 10 MHz. Values that are not supported will be rejected.

Scanning Start Frequency (MHz)
(Current/Configured)

The lowest Rx frequency to be used in the scanning process.

Scanning End Frequency (MHz)
(Current/Configured)

The highest Rx frequency to be used in the scanning process.

Scanning Main Step (KHz)
(Current/Configured)

Define the Main Frequencies that may be used in the scanning process: Start Frequency + N*Main Step, N=1, 2...until End Frequency is reached.

For 2.x/3.x GHz units and a bandwidth of 3.5 MHz, the range is from 125 KHz to 1750 KHz, in steps of 125 KHz.

For 2.x/3.x GHz units and a bandwidth of 5 MHz, the range is from 125 KHz to 5000 KHz, in steps of 125 KHz.

The Main Step must be higher than the highest step defined by the Intermediate Step Mask.

Scanning intermediate Step Mask (KHz)
(Current/Configured)

Define the intermediate step frequencies to be included in the scanning process:

Base Frequency: If marked, add Start Frequency to the list of Main Frequencies.

125 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+125 KHz.

250 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+250 KHz.

375 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+375 KHz.

500 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+500 KHz.

625 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+625 KHz.

750 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+750 KHz.

875/1250 KHz: Include all Main Frequencies+875/1250 KHz (875 is applicable for 3.5 MHz bandwidth. 1250 is applicable for 5 MHz bandwidth).

 

Discrete Scanning Frequencies (Current/Configured)

Up to 10 discrete frequencies that are included in the scanning list.

In addition, the following controls are available:

Update Scanning Table: Click on the button to update the frequency scanning table in run time (without resetting the unit).

Full Scan: Click on the button to initiate a full scanning process.
