Escort S2 Radar Detector User Manual

City Mode Sensitivity
City STD(Standard)
In this setting, when you put Solo S2 in the City mode,
X-band sensitivity is significantly reduced, to reduce
annoyance from X-band intrusion alarms and motion
sensors. (factory default)
City LoX(Low X-band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put Solo S2 in the City mode,
X-band sensitivity is reduced more than the standard
setting. This will reduce X band alarms from other
sources even further, but also significantly reduces
range to X-band traffic radar.
City NoX(No X-band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put Solo S2 in the City mode,
Solo S2 will not respond to any X band signals.
WARNING: Only choose this setting if you are
absolutely certain that there are no X band traffic
radar units where you drive.
NOTE:These settings only apply when Solo S2 is
operated in City mode. X-band sensitivity is not
affected when used in “Auto,” or “Highway” modes.

Bands ON/OFF
BandsALL
In this setting, all radar and laser frequencies are
monitored. This is the factory setting, and it is highly
recommended that you use your Solo S2 in this mode.
X ON(X-band detection on – factory default)
K ON(K-band detection on – factory default)
Ka ON(Ka-band detection on – factory default)
LSR ON(Laser detection on – factory default)
SWS OFF(Safety Warning Systems detection off –
factory default)
VG2 OFF (VG2 detection off – factory default) If
the VG2 band (Radar detector detector) is turned on,
VG2 units will be detected with an audible and visual
alert. Once detected, Solo S2’s internal oscillator will
shut down for a period of time, making it
undetectable. Solo S2’s oscillator will then periodically
turn back on to see if the VG2 unit is still present. If
not, Solo S2 will return to normal operation.
NOTE:With VG2 detection on, other radar
detectors could be detected as well.
BandsMOD
If you live in an area where a specific band (e.g. SWS )
is not currently used, you can turn that specific band
off.
NOTE: DO NOT TURN ANY BANDS OFF UNLESS
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT BAND IS NOT
USED IN YOUR AREA.
To disable, or turn a specific band off, enter
program mode and scroll to the “BandsALL” category
using the “REVIEW” button. Using the “CHANGE”
button, select the specific band you wish to disable, or
turn off, (e.g. “SWS ON”). Once you have selected the
specific band, press the top-mounted Mute button to
turn the band on/off.
NOTE:If you have turned off a band, Solo S2 will
warn you with an audible alert, and associated text
message stating which band is turned off, (e.g. “SWS
OFF”). This warning is displayed during the start up
sequence (standard or fast).
