Road Test; Care, Cleaning, And Storage - Decatur Electronics Genesis II Select Directional User Manual And Installation Manual

CIRCUITRy TEST: Checks the internal circuitry . If the unit passes
all internal checks, the messages ROM PASS, RAM PASS, DSP PASS,
and TEST PASS will be displayed, or if the test fails then FAIL will be
displayed in the MODE window and the unit should be removed
from service .
SPEED SIMULATION TEST: Verifies the speed accuracy using
synthesized Doppler frequencies corresponding to a series of
four simulated speeds: 25, 50, 75, and 100 km/h . Each speed is
accompanied by a audio tone that is proportional to the speed
displayed (speed increases, pitch increases) . Once the test is
successfully completed, a TEST PASS will be displayed, followed by a
single tone and then followed by a two tone audio tone .
7.2 Road Test
After the radar unit passes the self test, conduct a road test to
confirm the correlation between the patrol vehicle speedometer and
the patrol speed displayed on the radar .
The road test verifies that the radar unit's patrol speed and the motor
vehicle speedometer are within ± 3 km/h of each other .
Drive the patrol vehicle at a constant, legal speed to verify the
correlation that exists between the patrol speed of the police vehicle
and the patrol speed of the radar unit . Generally they will be within
±3 km/h, any discrepancy in these speeds is not reflective of an
inaccuracy of the radar unit but is attributable to a slight tolerance
in the speedometer . If you have a dual antenna configuration, repeat
this process .
• Section 7 .1 and 7 .2 must be completed by the
operator prior to enforcement and at the conclusion
of the officer's tour of duty (if any enforcement action
was taken) .

• When you are not using or transporting the device, store it in its
original packaging .
• To clean the radar device, dust it with a soft clean cloth, which is
free of cleaning solutions .
• The Genesis II Select Directional can withstand temperature
variations, however, only the antenna is weather resistant .
• Insert and remove the connectors by following the correct
connect and disconnect procedures .
WARNING
• In case your unit has a blown fuse, please replace the
fuse with another fuse rated at the same capacity .
DO NOT replace the fuse with a higher rated fuse since
this may cause damage to the equipment and/or the
vehicle . Higher rated fuses will cause internal damage
to the unit and may result in voiding the warranty . In
