7.Laser Optical Sensors: collect Laser signals from in front and behind.

8.Audio Alert Speaker: all audible alerts and Digital Voice Messages are emitted from this location.

9.Power Jack: using the straight or coiled cord, VECTOR 960 and VECTOR 940 operate in any vehicle with a 13.8 volt DC negative ground system (10.5 volt to 15.5 volt range).

Getting Started

k Power-Up Test Sequence/Start-Up Mode

Using the supplied straight or coiled power cord, place the end with the “elbow” shaped jack into the receptacle on the side of the detector; the opposite end of the cord connects to the cigarette barrel. Plug

the cigarette barrel into your vehicle’s cigarette plug, or the secondary receptacle if your vehicle is so equipped. Press the PWR button to turn the unit ON. Depending upon the Operating Mode selected, the power up test sequence and confirmation of Radar/Laser/SWSalerts will be relayed to you as follows:

kNORMAL (Factory Pre-Set Mode)

A lengthy, power up test sequence that displays audio and text messages for Laser, Ka, K, X and Safety Warning System® (SWS) followed by the status of the General Selectable Features each time the unit is turned on. When complete, unit is ready for operation and will display Radar, Laser and SWSmessages when signals are detected. Normal Mode is recommended when first using your VECTOR 985.

k MODS (Modifications Mode)

Presents audio and text messages for Laser, Ka, K, X and Safety Warning System® (SWS), followed by ONLY those General Selectable Features which have been modified by the user from their Factory pre-set

940, VECTOR 960 specifications

The Beltronics VECTOR 960 and 940 represent a significant evolution in radar detection technology, designed to cater to the needs of discerning drivers who demand accuracy, superior range, and advanced features. With their sleek designs and robust functionalities, these models are engineered to provide an unparalleled driving experience while enhancing safety and awareness on the road.

One of the standout features of both the VECTOR 960 and 940 is their advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology. This cutting-edge innovation effectively filters out false alerts, ensuring that users receive only the most relevant and critical information. By processing signals more efficiently, these detectors can distinguish between real threats, such as police radar, and benign signals from sources like automatic doors or other vehicles.

Range is another impressive characteristic of the VECTOR series. Users can expect unparalleled detection range, allowing them to identify potential threats well in advance. This extended range is particularly beneficial for highway driving, giving users extra time to respond to changing conditions. The VECTOR 960, equipped with top-tier sensitivity settings, can detect multiple radar bands, including K, Ka, and X bands, providing comprehensive coverage against various radar technologies employed by law enforcement.

Both models come with an intuitive display that features adjustable brightness levels, ensuring visibility in all lighting conditions. The VECTOR 960 offers an advanced user interface, complete with voice alerts that keep drivers focused on the road while still providing critical information. This feature enhances safety, as it minimizes the need for drivers to take their eyes off the road to read alerts.

User customization is another notable aspect of the VECTOR line. These detectors allow users to tailor their settings to suit specific driving habits and locales, which offers a more personalized experience. Drivers can easily turn bands on or off and adjust sensitivity levels according to their preferences, further improving accuracy and reducing false alarms.

Additionally, the VECTOR 960 and 940 are equipped with built-in GPS capabilities. This feature supports TrueLock technology, which allows users to lock out false alert locations, reducing unnecessary alerts and making the driving experience smoother. Furthermore, they are compatible with the Escort Live app, providing real-time data sharing and access to a community of users who report on road hazards and enforcement activities.

In conclusion, the Beltronics VECTOR 960 and 940 embody a blend of advanced technology, exceptional range, and user-friendly features. With their sophisticated radar detection capabilities, these models stand out as top choices for drivers seeking to enhance their awareness and safety on the road.
