Laser Alerts
When Laser is detected, the display will flash “LASER”
coupled with a distinct Laser audio alert. If a vehicle is a long
distance from the source of Laser pulses, fewer pulses will
generally be received. The closer the vehicle is to the source of
Laser pulses, the greater the likelihood of receiving a steady
stream of Laser pulses. The reason for this is the aiming
stability of the Laser gun and the fact that it is difficult to hold
the gun absolutely still. Any movement of the gun results in
motion of the beam at the target. The further the target, the
greater the displacement of the beam and the shorter the dwell
time of the beam at the target point. Therefore, there is the
possibility of receiving only a few Laser pulses. Due to these
characteristics, all Laser alerts should be taken seriously.
