Radar  Menu

GPS Filter

Toggles GPS off and on. GPS Filtering enables you to 

store and lock out, or ignore, fixed location false 

alerts in Road Scout’s memory. Common sources of 

fixed location false alerts are storefront automatic 

door openers and motion sensors. To store a false 

alert location, press MUTE three times during an 

alert. Subsequent alerts to this signal will be muted 

and displayed in grey (factory default is on).

Note that GPS Filter will not lock out moving false 

alerts commonly caused by vehicle blind spot 

monitoring and collision avoidance systems.

Automatically turns off Road Scout after the set time 

period. This is especially useful if your vehicle has a 

constant-on lighter outlet (factory default is 4 Hours).
