Spectre Audio Mode

When 

Spectre Audio

 mode is On, alerts will be sounded as well as being 

displayed on the screen. This setting is only available if Spectre Alert is On. After 

Spectre Alert is turned On in the Alert Settings menu, the Spectre Audio On/Off 

screen will appear. If Spectre Audio Alert is turned Off, the audio portion of the 

alert will not sound.

Safety and Strobe Alert

When 

Safety Alert

 mode is On, Safety Alert radar signals will be detected and an 

alert will be given. During the alert, the unit will continue to detect other signals. 

Strobe Alert remains On when Safety Alert is turned Off. See pages  

32 and 33 for more information about Safety and Strobe Alerts.

Car Battery Low Voltage Warning

In addition to displaying system voltage, your detector can provide a warning 

that battery voltage is low so that timely steps can be taken to correct the 

problem. The 

Car Battery Low

 alert is triggered when the voltage drops below 

11.9 volts. Following the alert, the unit enters SmartPower mode to avoid further 

draining your car battery. 

NOTE

For GPS settings and alerts, see the material beginning at page 38.

Radar and Laser Alerts 

Signals Detected

The tables on the following pages show the types of radar and laser 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 31.

Visual Display

An indication of the type of signal detected will appear in the OLED Data Display. 

During X, K, Ka and Ku alerts, you will also see symbols indicating the strength of 

the signal detected on a scale of one to five. Pop alerts always show at level five  

as soon as they are detected.
