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 25.
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 the numbers from one to five, indicating the strength of the signal detected.
