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 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 or Spectre 1 alerts, the letter V will appear. It will be steady
during VG-2 and blink during Spectre 1.

During Safety Alert and Strobe Alert the letter S will appear. It will be
steady during a Safety Alert and will blink during a Strobe Alert.
