Power
The Beltronics RX45 was designed to turn
on and off with the ignition once it is
installed. This is accomplished by
connecting the 12-volt interface to a
switched ACC connection at the fuse panel.
(See installation manual for instructions.)
If you prefer, you may also turn the
RX45 on and off by pressing the power
button
located on the display controller.
Power-on indication
After the RX45’s start-up sequence is
complete, the matrix display will show
“Highway”, “AutoScan” or “Auto No X” to
show which sensitivity mode has been
selected.
If you prefer, you can select alternate
power-on displays. See the Preferences
section for details
Mute
The V•Mute button, located on the display
controller, allows you to silence the audio
during an alert.
To mute the audio for a single specific
signal, briefly press the V•MUTE button.
After that radar encounter has passed, the
audio will automatically reset and the RX45
will alert you to the next encounter.
AutoMute
Your RX45 has our patented AutoMute
feature. After the RX45 alerts you to a radar
encounter at your selected volume level, it
automatically mutes the volume to a lower
level. This keeps you informed without the
annoyance of a continuous full-volume
alert.
If you prefer, you can turn the
AutoMute feature off. See the Preferences
section for details.
AutoScan / Highway / Auto NoX
The “SENS” button selects the RX45’s
sensitivity setting. We recommend the
“AutoScan” mode for most driving.
Beltronics’s exclusive AutoScan mode
provides long-range warning, with
minimum false alarms. In this mode,
Beltronics’s internal computer
continuously analyzes all incoming signals
and intelligently adjusts the sensitivity –
eliminating the majority of false alarms.
You can also select conventional
“Highway”, which provides the maximum
sensitivity. Auto NoX provides the same
sensitivity as “AutoScan” but turns off X-
band completely. Full sensitivity is
maintained on all other bands.
NOTE: Before using the RX45 in
the “Auto NoX” mode, please make
sure your area does not use X-band
guns to measure speed.
Volume Adjust
To adjust the RX45 to your preferred audio
level for alerts, simply press and hold the
V•Mute button located on the display
controller. The audio will increase/
decrease while it is depressed. Once you
reach the desired audio level, simply release
the button. The RX45 will retain this setting
in its memory, even if the system is turned
off.
When the optional Laser Shifters are
connected, (see Accessories section) the
V•Mute button can be used to manually
stop “shifting” once you have corrected
your speed. Simply press the V•Mute twice
during the “Laser Shifting” message and the
Shifters will cease to transmit. The Shifters
will remain in this state for approximately
one minute. Once this time has passed, the
shifters will automatically reset. A ”Shift
On” message will be displayed to verify and
acknowledge this reset.
