To Access (DMA scanners):
- Press Hold to hold on any channel then press and hold Func then press 1/Pri (each time) to select one of two priority modes or off.
- Off - scans normally with no priority.
- On - while scanning a system, the scanner interrupts every 2 seconds and checks the priority channels in each system.
- Priority channels in systems with lower 'system quick keys' or 'car quick key' (starting with 1) have highest priority. Pri appears in the display when you select this mode.
- Plus On - the scanner only scans the priority channels. Pri flashes in the display when you select this mode.
- Press Scan to resume scanning.
- Or, in scan mode press Menu.
- Scroll to 'Set Priority' and press E/Yes.
- Scroll to the mode you want to use and press E/Yes.

The feature of a scanner to periodically check another channel or set of channels for a transmission, regardless of whether the scanner is unmuted on a transmission.
This may cause undesired breaks in the audio while listening to a transmission.
Some Uniden scanners provide the Priority Plus feature where only channels designated as priority channels are scanned.
