VG-2 ALERTS

18

VG-2 Audio/Visual Alerts

Note: You must turn the POP feature OFF 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 present, 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 a
VG-2 Alert X, K, and Ka band signals cannot be received.
Having a laser/radar detector does not make you invisible or
immune to laser/radar guns. As in the case with detecting
instant-on radar, there are some circumstances that the VG-2
may detect your laser-radar detector before the laser-radar can
detect the VG-2 signal in time to hide. (Reference page 24 for
Radar Detector ‘Detector’ 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 a VG-2 signal is
detected, the VG-2 warning will override the X band alert.
