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, Ka and Ku 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 29.

Visual Display

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

DigiView 

Data Display

. During X, K, Ka and Ku alerts, you will also see from one 

to five vertical bars, indicating the strength of the signal detected.
