User Location Alerts
The system can store up to 1,000 User Location Alerts to provide warnings at
locations not included in the built-in GPS Locator database. Whenever your vehicle
approaches a user set location, an alarm will be provided with a unique chime and
the flag icon will become progressively larger as you approach the location.
■ To set a User Location: Press and hold the Menu/Save button for at least
two seconds when the vehicle is at a location you want to save.
■ To delete a specific User Location: Press and hold the Menu/Save button
for at least two seconds while at that location and the User Location Alert
is sounding. A specific location can be deleted only while at that location.
■ To delete all User Locations: When an Optional GPS Locator unit is
installed, you can delete all user-entered Location Alerts in Menu mode
(see page 15).
Speed Alert
When a GPS Locator unit is installed and receiving a signal and Speed Alert
mode is turned On, 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 km/h increments. The factory setting is Speed Alert Off.
Speed units can be selected as a User setting. See pages 14 and 15 for User
and Alert Menus.
Vehicle Location
When a GPS Locator unit is installed and receiving a signal, you can determine
the position (latitude and longitude) of your vehicle from the Lat/Lon standby
screen. See page 8.
Compass
When a GPS Locator unit is installed and receiving a signal, you can see your
direction of travel based on the GPS system. The GPS compass overrides
the magnetic compass except when the GPS signal is lost.
GPS Database Information
When a GPS Locator unit is installed, you can view the version and date
on which the installed database of Photo Enforcement and Caution Area
Locations was updated. To update the database, go to Cobra's website
(http://aura.cobra.com) and follow the online instructions.
