Controls and Features
continuously analyzes all incoming signals and intelligently rejects false
alarms.
You can also select Highway and City modes. When riding in urban areas
where intense X-band intrusion alarms and door openers are common, City
mode can be engaged to lower X-band sensitivity and reduce X-band alerts.
Full sensitivity is maintained on all other bands.
You can customize the City mode sensitivity. See the EZ Programming section
for details.
Dim:
The Road Tech 75’s
DIM
button selects the brightness of the display.
There are four settings: Maximum, Medium, Minimum, and Dark. Press the
DIM
button to select your preferred brightness. Each time you turn the detec-
tor on, it automatically selects the brightness setting you last used.
Dark Mode:
When you select Dark mode using the DIM switch, the display
changes to a very inconspicuous power-on indication: a very dim “AD”, “HD”,
or “CD”. (In this display, the “A,” “H” or “C” indicates Auto, Highway, or City, and
the D indicating Dark.)
When the detector is in the Dark mode, the display will not show visual alerts
when it detects signals. Only the audible alert will tell you of detected signals.
Audible Alerts:
For Radar signals: The Road Tech 75 uses a geiger-counter-
like sound to indicate the signal strength and type of radar signal being
encountered. When you encounter radar, a distinct audible alert will sound
and occur faster as the signal gets stronger. When the signal is very strong,
the audible alerts will blend into a solid tone. This allows you to judge the dis-
tance from the signal source without taking your eyes from the road.
NOTE
Since Laser and “POP” signals are a possible threat no matter how weak, the
Road Tech 75 alerts you to these with a full alert.
