Laser Audio/Visual Alerts
When a laser signal is detected the word “Laser” and sig-
nal strength is displayed, the audio alert is continuous for
a minimum of 3 seconds. Example:
The more “|||” the closer the laser source.
VG-2 Audio/Visual Alerts
Note: You must turn this feature on in option select mode before
it will detect VG-2.
When a VG-2 signal is detected, the detector “hides” its own
radiated signal and becomes undetectable by the VG-2.
Text message confirms detection of VG-2.
Every 30 seconds, the detector checks for a VG-2 signal. If
a VG-2 signal is still detected, the unit continues to hide
and repeats the VG-2 alert. If no signal is detected, two
beeps are provided, indicating an “all clear” condition.
During VG-2 Alert X, K, and Ka band signals cannot be
received. (Reference page 26 for VG-2 information.)
Alert Priority
When two or more signals are received at the same time,
the alert priority is:
1. Laser
2. VG-2
3. Speed Radar
4. Safety Radar
Example:
If X band is alerting, then suddenly VG-2 is detected, the
VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.
