Laser Alert Sequence

When the RD950 detects a laser signal:  

A voice alert announces, “Laser.” (This assumes the factory
default “Voice On” setting has not been changed.) 

You will then hear a distinctive audio tone.

Display indicates laser has been detected.

NOTE:

Unlike radar, signal strength from laser remains 

constant.

Laser Alert Example: 

You are driving and laser is detected:

Visual Alert:  

Laser

Audio Alert: Voice announces, “Laser,” followed by 
distinctive audio tone. 

Alerts from Non-Police Signals 

Your RD950 is sensitive enough to detect signals generated
by non-police equipment, such as automatic doors. To learn
how to deal with these signals, please read about FILTER 
options (page 10).

K-Band Filter

Your RD950 rejects alerts from vehicles on the road (including
your own) equipped with radar-based safety features, such as
collision avoidance. Police radar reception and detection
range is unaffected by this feature.

Traffic Sensor Filter

Your RD950 will reject alerts from traffic flow sensors usually
encountered during highway driving. Enable this filter through
the menu (page 12).
