Beltronics 916, Beltronics Express, 926 manual Manual Muting of Audio Alerts Radar & sws

more rapid as the strength of the Radar signal increases. With this mode engaged, the automatic mute mode enables you to conveniently monitor extended encounters without having to manually mute or adjust the volume setting. To return to the continuous audio alert pattern, press the  button a second time while the unit is not alarming. Two “beeps” and no decimal point in the upper left corner of the Digital Display confirm you have cancelled automatic mute mode.

Manual Muting of Audio Alerts (Radar & sws)

Regardless of the  mode selected (continuous or automatic mute) the X, K, Super Wideband Ka and swsaudio alerts can be completely muted by pressing the  button during an alert. Once the alert has passed, the unit will revert to the previous aud setting (continuous or automatic mute).

Note—because Laser alerts are not lengthy or sustained, muting is not required (see page 17).

 (City X/Highway) Button

The city X mode has been designed to effectively reduce unwanted audio alerts caused by intrusion alarms, door openers, and other devices which share X band with police Radar—without reducing sensitivity. Signals from non-police Radar sources are frequently encountered in urban and suburban areas, making use of this mode ideal in these areas.

Pressing the  button once engages the city X mode

 

which is confirmed by a “C” in the Digital Display and a

 

single audio “beep”. Pressing the  button twice returns you

 

to highway mode; a double “beep” and illumination of “H” in

 

the display will confirm this selection. With  engaged,

 

weak X band signals encountered will produce no audible

 

alert until the signal strength reaches a preset level. However,

 

visual alerts are processed the instant an X band signal is

 

detected, keeping you quietly informed. Since most “false” X

 

band signals are weak, the use of the city mode allows you to

 

drive out of their range before they reach the preset level and

 

trigger a full audio alert. In contrast, signals from X band

 

traffic Radar are generally stronger and will exceed the preset

level, causing a full X band audio alert.
