The mode section shows what the radar is doing. The display is set up like a roadway. A large red “X” icon in
the left lane tells at a glance that the transmitter is in standby. A large green car in the right lane indicates that the
transmitter is on.
The operating mode of the Ranger EZ is illustrated with the scene of a patrol car and selected targets. In opposite
direction moving mode, the scene shows an arrow in the left lane of traffic; it is ahead of the patrol car if the front
antenna is selected and behind the patrol car if the rear antenna is selected. In same direction moving mode, the
arrows target vehicle is shown moving the same direction as the patrol car. In addition, moving mode is indicated
by “Mov” appearing under the middle speed display window.
In stationary mode, the Mode window works similarly. Indicators appear in front of or behind the patrol vehicle
icon to indicate the selected antenna. When the opposite lane of traffic is selected, only the arrow in the left lane
lights up. When the same lane of traffic is selected, the arrow in the right lane lights up. When both directions of
traffic are selected, arrows in both lanes light up. Stationary mode is indicated by “Sta” appearing below the
middle speed display window.
Speed windows
The Ranger EZ has three windows for speed display. These are arranged by function and use color for quick
identification at night.
The leftmost display is a dedicated red target window. This window always displays the strongest target’s speed,
even in fastest mode. This window also displays locked target speeds. If a target speed is locked, the red lock icon
under the middle window will be lit. Radio frequency error conditions (rFi) are displayed in this window.
The middle speed window is yellow and displays the fastest target speed. If the Ranger is in fastest mode, the
Fast icon below the middle window is lit. The speed of the strongest and fastest target can be locked. If the
middle window is being used to display the locked speed of the fastest vehicle the lock icon under the window
will be lit. General error conditions (Err) are also indicated in this window.
The green window on the right side of the display shows the patrol vehicle’s speed in moving mode and is unused
(filled with dashes) in stationary mode. The speed displayed in this window should always correspond with the
vehicle’s speedometer. If a low voltage condition occurs, it will be indicated in this window by “Lo” appearing in
the window.
