Signals Detected

Assistance
The tables on the following pages show you the types of Signals your detector will
detect, as well as the visual alerts it provides for each of them.

Audio Alerts

Secondary Icons
A distinctly different Alert tone and voice message is used for each type of signal
detected (including separate tones for each laser signal). For X, K and Ka band
radar signals, the tones will repeat faster as you approach the signal source. The
repeat rate of the tones gives you useful information about the signal detected.
(See responding to alerts on page 14.)

detected and, for radar signals, the signal
