Easy Pairing
The Easy Pairing feature allows a group of radio users to program all their radios to the same Channel and Interference Eliminator Code settings quickly and simultaneously. Any one radio within the group can be designated as the "Leader's radio" and have it's Channel and Interference Eliminator Code settings transmitted to and copied by all the other radios in the group (Members' radios).
- Pick any one of the radios as the "Leader's radio". On this radio, program the Channel and Interference Eliminator Code to the desired settings.(See "Selecting the Channel" and "Selecting the Interference Eliminator Code" sections in this user manual).
- To copy the channel and Interference Eliminator Code combination to all the other "Members' radios", press and hold the button on the Members' radios until you hear a beep. Release the button after the beep, and wait for the transmission from the Leader's radio.
Note:
- The icon blinks on the display. This confirms that the radio is in Easy Pairing mode waiting to receive the Channel and Interference Eliminator Code settings from the Leader's radio. All Members' radios remain in this mode for 3 minutes.
- A group with many radios should have all users take this step at the same time, so all radios can be programmed in one go.
- On the Leader's radio, press and hold down the button until you hear a double beep.
Note:
- At the double beep, this radio's Channel and Interference Eliminator Code settings is transmitted, which is received and copied by all the other (Members') radios.
- The Leader's radio must make this transmission when all the Members' radios are still in the Easy Pairing mode, otherwise the transmission is not picked up.
- On the Leader's radio, user must remember NOT to release the button on the first (single) beep, otherwise this radio becomes another Member's radio. If that happens, you can press PTT to escape, and retry step 3.
Scanning Channels
Use scan to search all channels for transmissions from unknown parties, to find someone in your group who has accidentally changed channels or to quickly find unused channels for your own use.
There is a priority feature and two modes of scanning (basic and advanced) to make your search more effective. The Basic Scan mode uses the channel and code combinations for each of the channels as you have set them (or with the default code value of 1). The "Advanced Scan" mode scans all channels for any and all codes, detect any code in use and use that code value temporarily for that channel.
Priority is given to the "home channel", that is, the channel (and Interference Eliminator Code) your radio is set to when you start the scan. This means the initial channel (and code settings) is scanned more often than the other channels and your radio
responds quickly to any activity occurring on the home channel as a priority.
To start Basic Scanning:
- Briefly press the Scan/Monitor button. The scan
Z appears in the display and the radio begins to scroll through the channel and code combinations. - When the radio detects channel activity matching the channel and code combination, it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission.
- To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press the PTT button within five seconds after the end of the transmission.
- The radio resumes scrolling through the channels 5 seconds after the end of any received activity.
- To stop scanning, briefly press the Scan/Monitor button.
To start Advanced Scanning:
- Set the Interference Eliminator Code to "zero" or OFF.
- Briefly press the Scan/Monitor button. The scan
Z appears in the display and the radio begins to scroll through the channels. No Interference Eliminator Codes filters what is heard.
-
When the radio detects channel activity with ANY code (or NO code), it stops scrolling and you can hear the transmission. Any Interference Eliminator Code that may be in use by that party is detected and displayed.
-
To respond and talk to the person transmitting, press the PTT button within 5 seconds of the end of the transmission. The radio transmits using the newly detected Interference Eliminator Code.
- The radio resumes scrolling through the channels 5 seconds after the end of any received activity.
- To stop scanning, briefly press the Scan/Monitor button.
Scanning Notes:
- If you press the PTT button while the radio is scrolling through inactive channels, the transmission is on the "home channel". Scanning resumes five seconds after the end of your transmission. You may press the Scan/Monitor button to stop scanning at any time.
- If the radio stops on an undesired transmission, you may immediately resume the scan by briefly pressing or
- If the radio repeatedly stops on an undesired transmission, you may temporarily remove that channel from the scan list by pressing and holding for 3 seconds. You may remove more than one channel in this way.
- To restore the removed channel(s) to the scan list, turn the radio off and then turn back on, or exit and re-enter the scanning mode by pressing Scan/Monitor button.
-
You cannot remove the home channel from the scan list.
-
In Advanced Scan, the detected code is only used for one transmission. You must note that code, exit scan and set that detected code on that channel to permanently use the detected code.
WEATHER RECEIVER
Note: Weather feature is not available on model T21X. Weather feature is available on model T27X designed for use in USA and Canada.
