Signals Detected
The tables on the following pages show the types of Signals your detector
will detect, as well as the visual alerts it provides for each of them.
Audio Alerts
A distinctly different Alert tone is used for each type of signal detected
(including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K, Ka and Ku band
radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal
source. The repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about
the signal detected. See responding to alerts on page 28.
Visual Display
An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the OLED Data
Display. During X, K, Ka and Ku alerts, you will also see symbols indicating
the strength of the signal detected on a scale of one to five. Pop alerts always
show at level five as soon as they are detected.
