If you assigned that system to System Quick Key 6, then all you need to do is tap 6 while scanning to enable/disable scanning of that system. Â ...

When you tap F, the "F" stays active for a few seconds. If you missed the target system, after tapping F scroll back to the system, then press the group quick...

During scanning of the trunk system, be ready and hold down the "Hold" for a beep and it will hold on the system and give u a better chance at controlling the...

F and the # are two distinct key presses. Don't try to press them at the same time. Once you hit F, you have about 3 seconds to hit the GQK#. If you need to...
