Setting The Vg-2 Option; Receiving And Identifying Alert Signals - Radio Shack STAY ALERT 22-1679 Owner's Manual

SETTING THE VG-2 OPTION

VG-2 is a system used by some law enforcement agencies to
detect the use of radar detectors in vehicles. The VG-2 system
detects the weak radio signals used in radar detectors. Your
radar detector can sense a VG-2 system and shift its operating
frequencies out of the range detected by VG-2, making your
radar detector essentially invisible to this system.
To turn on the VG-2 option, hold down

Notes:
• Your detector does not detect speed radar when VG-2 has
been detected.
• If you want to use the VG-2 option, you must turn it on when
you turn the detector on.
RECEIVING AND IDENTIFYING
ALERT SIGNALS
Your detector gives different audible and visual alerts for each
signal. In addition, the alert tone pulse rate increases with sig-
nal strength and the detector displays a digit from 1 to 9 to indi-
cate the signal strength (1 is weakest and 9 is strongest).
When your detector senses instant-on radar, it sounds an
intense, 3-second tone and displays
for 2 seconds.
