GPS Settings

GPS Settings can be turned On or Off to suit your preferences using the

GPS Settings Menu (see page 18). The following discussions are valid only

when the GPS Locator is installed and receiving a signal.
Photo Enforcement, Caution Area, Known Speed Trap Areas, and User Location Alerts

are all based on specific locations that are in or added to the GPS Locator database.

They are referred to collectively as Location-Based Alerts.

NOTE
Photo Enforcement Areas and the Compass are not available as settings. They

are always active and cannot be turned Off.

Photo Enforcement Areas are the automated speed and red light cameras

included in the GPS Locator database. When your vehicle approaches

one of these, an alarm will sound and the

Camera icon will become

progressively larger as you approach the location.

Caution Area

When

Caution Area is On and your vehicle approaches a high-accident intersection

or other dangerous place that is included in the GPS Locator database, an alarm will

sound and the

Caution icon will become progressively larger as you approach the

location.

Known Speed Trap Areas

When

Speed Traps is On and your vehicle approaches a known speed trap that is

included in the GPS Locator database, an alarm will sound and “Speed Trap Areas”

will be displayed as you approach the location.

IntelliScope

When

IntelliScope is On and any Location-Based Alert is activated, IntelliScope

provides information about the direction of the Location relative to your

vehicle. See page 42 for a full description of how IntelliScope works with

a Location-Based Alert.

When

Speed Alert is On and a Speed has been set, the detector will sound an

alert whenever the vehicle’s speed exceeds the set point you have selected. The

speed settings can be adjusted in 5 mph or 5 km/h increments from the Speed

or Compass & Speed Standby Screens (see page 10).
To set or adjust the speed at which an alert will sound:

1. Press the Speed icon. The Speed Alert screen will appear.
2. Click on the minus (-) or plus (+) icons to change the speed setting.
3. Click on the Exit icon to return to the last used standby screen.

Speed Units can be selected as either mph or km/h. Whichever is selected

will apply not only to Speed Alert, but to all features that display a speed on the

screen.

NOTE
In addition to using the menu to reach the Display Speed screen,

it can also be accessed from the Speed or Compass & Speed Standby

Screens (see page 10).
