Pilot (Power-on indication)

NOTE: When you are using the Dark mode, 
the display will only show HD, AD, or CD, 
(Highway-Dark, AutoScan-Dark, or City-
Dark).

Pilot HWY

 (Full description) 

In this setting, Pro300 will display 
“Highway,” “City,” or “Auto” as its power-on 
indication. (factory default)

Pilot H

 (Letter) 

In this setting, Pro300 will display “H” for 
Highway, “C” for City, and “A” for AutoScan. 

Pilot V

 (Vehicle voltage)  

In this setting, Pro300 will continually 
display “H” for Highway, “C” for City, and 
“A” for AutoScan, and the vehicle’s voltage. 
If the vehicle’s voltage drops below 10.5 
volts, a low voltage warning is displayed, 
followed by an audible alert. A high voltage 
warning is also given if the voltage goes 
above 16.0 volts. The high-voltage warning 
is also followed by an audible alert. 

Voice

Voice On

 (Voice alerts on) 

In this setting, all radar, laser, and SWS (if 
programmed on) alerts will be  
accompanied by a digital voice.

Voice Off

 (Voice alerts off) 

In this setting, only the audio tones will be 
heard during an alert or SWS message.

Power-on Sequence

PwrOnSTD

 (Standard) 

In this setting, each time you turn on the 
Pro300, it will display “Pro300,” “Laser,” “Ka-
band,” “K-band,” “X-band,” “Safety,” and any 
changes to factory settings. (factory default)

PwrOnFST

 (Fast power-on) 

In this setting, the Pro300 will only provide 
a brief audible tone, and will display any 
non-factory settings.

15

Signal Strength Meter

MeterSTD

 (Standard meter) 

In this setting, the meter displays the band 
of the received signal, and a bar graph 
shows the relative signal strength. (factory 
default)

MeterTHT

 (Threat Display) 

In this setting, the meter simultaneously 
tracks multiple radar signals, including  
relative signal strength for each.
 

NOTE: The Threat Display feature is 

explained in more detail on pages 10-11.

MeterTEC

 (Tech Display meter) 

In this setting, the meter displays the actual 
numeric frequency of the radar signal 
received.
 

NOTE: The Tech Display feature is 

explained in more detail on page 11.

AutoMute

aMute ON

 (AutoMute on) 

In this setting, Pro300’s audio alerts will 
initially be at the volume you set, but after a 
few seconds, the Pro300 will automatically 
reduce the volume level, to keep you 
informed, but not annoyed. (factory default)

aMuteOFF

 (AutoMute off) 

With AutoMute off, Pro300’s audio alerts 
will remain at the volume you set for the  
duration of the radar encounter.

City Mode Sensitivity

City STD

 (Standard) 

In this setting, when you put Pro300 in the 
City mode, X-band sensitivity is significantly 
reduced, to reduce annoyance from X-
band intrusion alarms and motion sensors. 
(factory default)

City LoX

 (Low X band sensitivity) 

In this setting, when you put Pro300 in the 
City mode, X-band sensitivity is reduced 
more than the standard setting. This will 
reduce X band alarms from other sources 
even further, but also significantly reduces 
range to X band traffic radar.

City NoX

 (No X band sensitivity) 

In this setting, when you put Pro300 in 
the City mode, it will not respond to any 
X band signals. 

WARNING: Only choose 

this setting if you are absolutely 
certain that there are no X band traffic 
radar units where you drive.

NOTE: These settings only apply when 
Pro300 is operated in City mode. X-band
sensitivity is not affected when used in 
“AutoScan,” or “Highway” modes.
