Continuous Mode
“Continuous mode” is an operating mode in which
the UltraLyte takes speed measurements
continuously until you release the trigger.
Normally when the instrument takes a speed
measurement, it takes and displays only one reading
and then stops, even if you hold down the trigger the
entire time. To take a second reading, you must
release the trigger and press it again.
If you wish to take several successive readings on a
target, however, you can put the instrument in
continuous mode. In that case, the instrument takes
and displays one reading after another, and
continues to take and display readings as long as
you hold down the trigger. Release the trigger, and
the instrument finishes its latest reading and stops. If
an error code is shown when you release the trigger,
the instrument will display either the most recent
speed reading, or, if the error code has persisted for
several tries, the error code will remain.
To turn continuous mode on or off, follow this
procedure:

For the best results, do not try to use continuous
mode to target one vehicle after another. When you
wish to change targets, release the trigger, aim to
the new target, and retrigger.
