Signal Strength Meter
Your V995’s alphanumeric display consists
of 280 individual LEDs, to provide an
intuitive ultra-bright display of signal
strength and text messages.
The V995’s standard bar-graph signal
strength meter only displays information
on a single radar signal. If there are multiple
signals present, the V995’s internal
computer determines which is the most
important threat to show on the bar-graph
meter.
When your V995 detects radar, it
displays the band (X, K, or Ka), and a
precise bar-graph of the signal strength.
When your V995 detects a laser signal, the
display will show “LASER.”
NOTE: If you are operating the
V995 in the Dark mode, the display
will not light when a signal is detected,
only the audio will be heard.
Signal Strength
The V995’s new Tech Display option is
for the experienced detector user. In this
mode, V995 will display the actual numeric
frequency of the radar signal being received.
K 24.150
Tech Display shows one K-band signal
at 24.150 gigahertz.
Note: Even long-time detector
users will require a significant
amount of time to get familiar with
this new level of information about
detected signals.
Audible Alerts
For Radar signals:
Your V995 uses a Geiger-counter-like
sound to indicate the signal strength and
type of radar signal being encountered.
When you encounter radar, a distinct
audible alert will sound and occur faster as
the signal gets stronger. This allows you to
judge the distance from the signal source
without taking your eyes from the road.
Each band has a distinct tone for easy
identification.
X-band = chirping
K-band = buzzing
Ka-band = double-chirp
POP = full double-chirp
For Laser and POP signals:
Since laser and POP signals (if turned
on) are a possible threat no matter how
weak, the V995 alerts you to these bands at
full strength.
For Safety signals:
Your V995 will alert you to these
signals with a double-beep tone, and a
corresponding text message. A complete
listing of the text messages is on page 23.

Power Connector
The V995’s power jack uses a telephone-
type connector. This 4-conductor
connector only works with the included
power cord, optional direct-wire, or
SmartPlug cord.
