Controls and Features
KA | X |||
Here ExpertMeter shows 1 weak Ka-band
signal, and three weak X-band signals.
X
On very weak signals, there will not be a
vertical line at all. This shows a very weak
X-band signal.
ExpertMeter Details
The band designators (X, K, Ka) will
stay on the display for a few seconds after
the signal has passed. This allows you to see
what the unit detected, even on very brief
signals.
However, the vertical lines representing
individual signals continuously change
(several times a second) to give you a
continuous view of the signal strength of all
radar signals present.
SpecDisplay
Passport's new SpecDisplay option is also
designed for the advanced detector user. In
this mode, Passport will display the actual
numeric radar frequency being received.
K 24.150
Display shows a K-band signal at 24.150
GHz
Ka34.700
Display shows a Ka-band signal at 34.700
GHz
X 10.525
Display shows a X-band signal at 10.525
GHz
Note: Even long-time detector users will
require a significant amount of time to
get familiar with this new level of
information.
Laser Shifters ™
Your Passport SRX is equipped with a total
of three Laser Shifters* (2 front, 1 rear).
These Laser Shifters are shipped from
the factory in the "receive only" mode.
If you prefer, you or your installer can
program them to "Shift" an incoming laser
signal when it is received. See the
programming section for details.
When Passport is in receive only mode
(factory default), and detects laser from
the front, the display will show F LASER.
When Passport detects laser from the rear,
the display will show R LASER.
When Passport has been programmed
to "Shift", the display will show F LASER –
SHIFTING when a signal is received from
the front, or R LASER – SHIFTING when a
signal is received from the rear.
This message will be accompanied by
the normal Laser alert tone.

This feature may be limited or prohibited in some jurisdictions.
Check applicable laws before using.

How to customize Passport with EZ-Programming
There are 9 user-selectable options so you
can customize your Passport for your own
preferences. The buttons that are normally
used for CITY and MUTE are used to enter
the Program Mode, to REVIEW your current
program settings, and to CHANGE any
settings as desired. Pages 11-13 explain each
option in more detail.
How to use EZ-Programming
1
To enter Program Mode, press both
buttons and hold for 2 seconds.
(Passport will beep twice and display
"Program." (Brightness is at maximum
during programming.)
2
Then press the REVIEW button to review
the current settings. (You can either tap
the button to change from item to item, or
hold the button to scroll through the items.)
3
Press the CHANGE button to change
any setting. (You can either tap the button
to change from setting to setting, or hold
the button to scroll through all the options).
4
To leave the Program Mode, simply wait
8 seconds without pressing any button.
(The unit will display "Complete," beep 4
times, and return to normal operation.)
(To quickly return to all of the factory
defaults, press and hold the CITY and MUTE
buttons while turning on the unit. A reset
message will be displayed.)
An example
For example, here is how you would turn
Passport's AutoMute feature off.
1 Enter the Program Mode by holding
both the CITY and MUTE buttons down for
2 seconds. Passport will beep twice and
display Program.
2 Press and hold the REVIEW button.
Passport will scroll through the categories,
starting with Display (Disp), then Pilot
Light (Pilot), then Power-on sequence
(PwrOn), then Signal strength meter
(Meter), then AutoMute (aMute).
3
Release the REVIEW button when
Passport shows the AutoMute item. Since
the factory setting is for AutoMute to be
on, Passport will display aMute ON.
(If you accidentally don't release the
Review button in time, and Passport goes
to the next category, hold the Review
button down again, and after Passport
scrolls through all categories, it will begin
again at the top of the list.)
4
Press the CHANGE button to change
from aMute ON to aMute OFF.
5 To complete the Programming, simply
wait 8 seconds without pressing any button.
Passport will display Complete, beep 4
times, and return to normal operation.
