LSID (Laser Signal IDentifier)

Identify the Laser gun’s pulse rate or PPS (Pulses Per Second) 

that is transmitted by the speed laser gun. LSID may also be 

used to identify other forms of laser sources such as LACC 

(Laser Assisted Cruise Control) systems found in some high 

end vehicles. If the Laser PPS information displayed is due to 

another source such as local airports or LACC, LSID allows 

you to Lock Out this rate from giving you the continuous 

audio alert during this and any new encounter of the same 

rate. To Lock Out a PPS, press the Quiet button during the 

Laser alert. This will place an 

*

 on the screen beside the 

PPS rate and Lock Out this signature ID. Any new encounter 

with the same Laser Signature ID will provide the display 

information and two quick beeps. 

Caution:

 Do not lock out a PPS rate if it is close to known 

speed laser guns.

Segmented Selectable Laser Receiver

If these alerts are bothersome, you may wish to make 

note of the PPS rate for these occurrences. The laser 

validation windows are separated into segments allowing for 

customization.

Segment Pulse Rate

Laser Area 1: 20Hz to 950Hz

Laser Area 2: 2600Hz to 3200Hz

Laser Area 3: 3800Hz to 4200Hz 

Laser Area 1 covers the traditional laser guns used in North 

America. Laser Area 2 and 3 cover laser guns recently

approved for use in North America. You can change the 

selection from yes to no individually in option mode.
