Instant-On Detection
Your detector is designed to detect Instant-On speed monitoring signals,
which can suddenly appear at full strength.
NOTE
You should take appropriate action
immediately whenever an instant-on alert is given.
Pop Detection
Your detector is designed to detect single pulse mode radars. These radars
are designed to have a low probability of detection. You should note that these
radar guns have a much shorter range while in this mode.
