Signals Detected
The tables on the following pages show you 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 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 on page 13.)
Visual Display
An indication of the type of signal
detected and, for radar signals, the signal
strength will appear in the UltraBright
Data Display. Radar signal strength will
be indicated by steady, flashing, or a
combination of steady and flashing
LEDs as shown in the signal strength
chart below.
