DMR issue only while scanning

[phyberoptics]

One of my local fire services uses DMR with 2 slots, TG 22785 CC4 Slot 1 and TG 22786 CC4 Slot 2. I have each TG on a knob position then a knob position for scan (there are other channels in the zone, but I'm only having issues with the DMR). When I select either of the 2 knob positions for the individual TG, I hear all traffic. When I'm on the scan knob position (normal scan), I only hear the first DMR transmission, and then the radio never stops again when the channel is active. When I press and release the top button on the left side and release, it stops again for 1 call, then goes back to the same behaviour. I'm sure I have setting slightly wrong but can't nail it down. Any ideas?
Stay time is 200ms
Reset Mode is Auto Reset

What is the Type setting you have for the Knobs, you might be using "monitor" rather than "scan". Monitor plays all traffic while scan plays only the TGs you've selected.

As for the second issue, I'm not sure, I have issues with scanning too, and miss a lot of responses and traffic, but the pager really wasn't designed for scanning and Unication hasn't made an effort to make it work better. Maybe if someone has a better response for you it will help me as well.

Each knob is monitor mode, and the scan is normal scan.

I've not had trouble the few times I've used mine to scan analog, which is pretty rare, but I've quite frankly never gotten DMR to work reliably in either of my G5's. I finally relented and use something else for DMR when I want to monitor that and use the Unication's for what they excel at which is simulcast P-25 trunking.

I wouldn't mind getting mine to work correctly when we work in the one city DMR is still used in but since it won't do DMR and P-25 trunking at the same time I honestly just gave up on it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I appreciate it. Thanks!

Just a word of advice.
If you are scanning with a pager in the fire service Analog or Digital is a NO NO this was even in the days when Motorola was selling the Minitor 3 pagers. The warning was traffic could or would be missed. How long is the delay time until scanning is resumed?
