Signals Detected
The tables on the following pages show
you the types of signals your ESD-9160
will detect, as well as the visual alerts
it provides for each one.
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, and Ka 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,
page 16.)
Visual Display
An indication of the type of signal
detected will appear in the UltraBright™
Data Display. During X, K and Ka alerts,
a number will also appear, indicating
the strength of the signal detected.
(1 = weakest, 5 = strongest)
During laser alerts the letter ”L“ will appear,
instead of the signal strength indication.
During VG-2 Alert,

and Strobe
Alert™ the letters ”V/S“ will appear.
