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)

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.
