Pressing the down arrow button lowers the volume one level; pressing the up arrow button raises
the volume.
Pressing the Aud/Sq button again will bring up the squelch setting. The squelch has two settings:
on and off. Squelch on causes the radar to only produce an audio tone when a target is present,
while Squelch off causes the Doppler return signal to be amplified at all times. During squelch
adjustment, “Squ” is displayed in the left most window of the radar, followed by the current setting
on or off.
On its initial power-up, the squelch is initially on. On subsequent power-ups, the PYTHON III
retains the squelch setting it had when the radar was turned off.
Pressing either the down arrow button or the up arrow button causes the radar to toggle between
Squelch on and Squelch off.
Range button
The range has 9 settings (1 through 9). The range setting does not affect the transmitted power,
only the sensitivity of the radar. During range adjustment, “rAngE” is displayed in the window of
the radar, followed by the current setting.
On power-up, the range is initially set to maximum.
Pressing the down arrow button decreases the range one level; pressing the up arrow button
increases the range.
Up arrow button
Sets the patrol speed range to the highway values. This button also works with the Aud/Sq,
Range and Patrol buttons to increase or toggle the settings.
Down arrow button
Sets the patrol speed range to the city values. This button also works with the Aud/Sq, Range and
Patrol buttons to decrease or toggle the setting.
Patrol button
The Patrol controls the City / Highway mode setting and provides the patrol blanking. Pressing
Patrol button when the unit is not in standby mode will allow you to see the Patrol City or
Highway setting and adjust it using the up or down arrow. The up arrow = Highway (“Hi”), down
arrow = city (“Lo”).
The city or highway filter helps reduce patrol speed shadowing or combining. The highway mode
helps reduce shadowing that can occur during fast closing highway speeds. The city mode helps
reduce the chance of combining that can occur at the lower patrol speeds. In general, if the patrol
speed is typically 60 MPH or less, the radar should be in the city (“Lo”) mode. For patrol speeds,
predominately greater than 60 MPH use the highway (“Hi”) mode.
