Signals Detected

The tables on the following pages show you the types of

Signals

your

detector will detect, as well as the visual alerts it provides for each of them.

Audio Alerts

A distinctly different

Alert

tone is used for each type of signal detected

(including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K and Ka band
radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal
source. The repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about
the signal detected. (See responding to alerts on page 11.)

Visual Display

An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the UltraBright
data

Display

.

During radar alerts the letters

X

or

K

Ka

will appear.

During laser alerts the letter

L

will appear.

During VG-2 and Safety Alerts, the letters

V

S

will appear.
