Controlsand Features
Brightness (BRT)
PASSPORT’s BRT button selects the bright-
ness of PASSPORT’s display and keypad.
There are five settings: Minimum (BRT
MIN), Medium (BRT MED), Maximum
(BRT MAX), Auto (BRT AUTO) and Full
Dark (BRT DARK).
Brightness Auto (BRT AUTO) (default)
In this setting, the display and key-pad
brightness will automatically adjust based
on the ambient light in the vehicle.
BRT Dark (Full Dark Mode)
When you select the Dark mode with the
BRT switch, the display will not show any
visual alerts, (i.e. display or keypad) when
PASSPORT detects signals. Only the
audible alert will tell you of detected
signals.
In this mode, visual alerts can be seen
on the SmartCord in addition to the audio
alerts on the detector.
Mark Location (MRK)
The “MRK” button allows you to mark a
specific location and label it for future
reference. Once marked, PASSPORT will
provide an alert before you reach this area
any time you return. This can be
extremely useful when there are known
speed traps or camera locations that you
would like to remember .
To mark a particular location: Press
the “MRK” button. The display will read:
“Mark?”. Press the “MRK button again to
10
assign a label it, (“SPD TRAP” is the default
label). To change the label to “Camera” or
“Other” press the volume (+) or (–) buttons.
Once you’ve selected the label, press the
“MRK” button again.
Once you have marked the location,
PASSPORT will provide an alert approxi-
mately 1 mile in advance when your
vehicle is moving 50 mph or above. This
alert distance is reduced to approximately
a ½ mile when traveling below 50 mph.
NOTE: When a location is marked
the first time, you must travel at least
one mile away from that location to
receive an alert.
To unmark a location, simply press the
“MRK” button when you are receiving a
“marked location” alert. The display will
read: “Unmark?” Press the “MRK” again to
confirm. The display will read: “Unmarked”.
