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, V995 will display “Highway,” 
“City,” or “AutoScan” as its power-on  
indication. (factory default)

Pilot H

 (Letter) 

In this setting, V995 will display “H” for 
Highway, “C” for City, and “A” for AutoScan. 

Pilot V

 (Vehicle voltage)  

In this setting, V995 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 announcements on) 

In this setting, all radar, laser, and SWS 
messages (if programmed) will be 
announced using a digital voice.

Voice Off

 (Voice announcements off) 

In this setting, only the distinct audio tone 
will be heard when a radar, Laser, or SWS 
message is detected.

Power-on Sequence

PwrOnSTD

 (Standard) 

In this setting, each time you turn on V995, 
it will display “BEL V995,” “Laser,” “Ka-band,” 
“K-band,” “X-band,” followed by a brief X-
band alert. (factory default) 
 

If any bands have been changed from  

the factory default settings, a double X-
band tone and corresponding message (i.e. 
“X  OFF”), will alert you that one or more 
bands have been changed.

PwrOnFST

 (Fast power-on) 

In this setting, V995 will provide a single  
X-band tone. If any bands have been 
changed from  the factory default settings, 
a double X-band tone and corresponding 
message (i.e. “X  OFF”), will alert you that one 
or more bands have been changed.

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)

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, V995’s audio alerts will 
initially be at the volume you set, but after a 
few seconds, V995 will automatically reduce 
the volume level, to keep you informed, but 
not annoyed. (factory default)

aMuteOFF

 (AutoMute off) 

With AutoMute off, V995’s audio alerts will 
remain at the volume you set for the  
duration of the radar encounter.

  Details of Programming

City Mode Sensitivity

City STD

 (Standard) 

In this setting, when you put your V995 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 your V995 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 your V995 in 
the City mode, V995 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 the V995 is operated in City 
mode. X-band sensitivity is not 
affected when used in “AutoScan” 
or “Highway” modes.
