Page 15: Interpretation Of Alerts
INTERPRETATION OF ALER TS Radar Alerts The alerts provided by your unit are affected both by the type of transmission (continuous wave or instant-on), and the position of the Radar source. Generally, when you drive closer to a Radar source, the intensity of the received signal increases, resulting in the increase of the number of bar graph segments and a corresponding increase in the audio alert rate. - Page 16 Stationary Radar aimed around a corner Under this circumstance, reaction time is considerably reduced. Since the Radar signals are transmitted across your line of travel, there is generally no signal available to receive until you are relatively close to the source. Once an alert is received, expect the strength of the signal to increase very quickly.
