How TotalShield
™
Technology Works
Beltronic’s TotalShield Technology keeps
RF signals from radiating from the detector.
Unlike other radar and laser detectors, which
merely move their RF signals (local
oscillators) to another frequency (which
will be detectable by future detector-detec-
tors), this revolutionary design keeps you
unseen by current radar detector-detectors,
including VG-2 and Spectre. This unique
design will also keep you unseen from any
future radar detector detectors as well.
Although the BELTRONICS STi DRIVER
is a completely undetectable radar, laser and
safety detector, driving techniques and
reactions to alerts can still draw unwanted
attention. Here are a few examples:
1.
Hitting the brakes immediately when
the STi DRIVER provides an alert can
broadcast use of a detector.
2.
Visible power cords, brackets and
suction cup marks on the glass can also
advertise to others that you have a detector.
3.
Traveling at night with a glow from a
radar detector’s display visible from outside
your vehicle can also draw unwanted atten-
tion. The STi DRIVER offers adjustable
brightness, including a full dark mode
which will provide audio alerts, but no
visual indication except for the alert LED on
the SmartPlug.
How Safety Radar Works
Safety Warning System, or SWS, uses a
modified K-band radar signal. The SWS
safety radar system has 64 possible
messages (60 currently allocated). The SWS
messages your STi DRIVER can display are
listed on the facing page.
From the factory, your STi DRIVER is
programmed with SWS decoding OFF. If
you wish to detect this system, use the
Programming feature to turn STi DRIVER’s
SWS decoding ON.
Note:
Some of the safety messages
have been condensed, so that each message
can be displayed on one or two screens on
STi DRIVER’s eight-character display.
Since Safety radar technology is
relatively new, and the number of
transmitters in operation is not yet wide-
spread, you will not receive Safety signals
on a daily basis. Do not be surprised if you
encounter emergency vehicles, road
hazards and railroad crossings that are
unequipped with these transmitters. If
Safety transmitters become more prevalent,
these Safety radar signals will become more
common.
