While the speeds indicated in the fastest mode are as accurate as normal targets, visual identification of the
offending vehicle can more difficult. Ranger EZ makes this much easier by showing the officer the distance of
the target and not just its speed. On other radars, since the fastest target cannot be positively identified, MPH
does not allow the fastest speed to be locked. However, due to the high reliability of the Ranger’s distance
measurement, MPH allows Ranger to lock the fastest target’s speed. Speed measurement and tracking of the
fastest target with the Ranger is just as reliable as measurement of the strongest vehicle.
Fastest mode works in stationary and opposite and same direction moving modes.
Same direction moving radar
Same direction mode allows the Ranger EZ to track targets moving faster or slower and in the same direction as
the patrol vehicle. This mode is best used in light traffic where visual target identification is easier. With this
feature active, the target speed range is limited to patrol speed ±70%. The target must be moving at a speed at
least 4 mph faster or slower than patrol.
Unlike older radars, the user does not have to press a SLOWER or FASTER button. Ranging technology allows
the Ranger EZ to detect whether the target vehicle is moving faster or slower than the patrol vehicle and
automatically compute the correct target speed.
Pacing radar
The Ranger EZ radar allows the officer an accurate means of pacing vehicles. In this mode, the Ranger EZ
essentially functions as a calibrated speedometer. The radar should be placed in the stationary mode for this type
of operation.
