Power-on Sequence
PwrOnSTD (Standard)
In this setting, each time you turn on
Passport, it will display “Passport,” “SR7,”
“LASER,” “Ka-band,” “K-band,” “X-band,”
followed by a brief X-band alert. It then
confirms communications to the front radar
receiver, and front and rear laser receivers.
If a communications error occurs, the
appropriate error message will be displayed.
(see page 21 for error messages)
Note: If there is a problem with the front
laser receiver or wiring after the initial
start-up sequence, Passport will briefly
display “LsrF ERR.” If there is a problem
with the rear laser receiver or wiring after
the initial start-up sequence, Passport will
briefly display “LsrR N/A.”
In both cases, Passport will continue
to receive radar signals, but will not
receive laser signals. If there is a problem
with the front radar receiver or wiring
after the initial start-up sequence, Passport
will display “Front N/A,” and will then
continue to display “Check,” “Receiver,”
“Wiring.” Passport will not operate in this
condition. Please contact your installer if
this occurs.
PwrOnFST (Fast power-on)
This setting shortens Passport’s start up
sequence to single beep, eliminating the words
“Passport,” “SR7,” “LASER.” “Ka-band,” “K-
band,” “X-band,” from the start-up sequence.
Signal Strength Meter
MeterSTD (Standard meter)
The meter displays the band, and bar graph
showing signal strength. (factory default)
MeterEXP (ExpertMeter)
The meter simultaneously tracks up to 2
Ka-band, 2 K-band, and 4 X-band signals.
MeterSPC (SpecDisplay)
The meter displays the actual numeric
frequency of the radar signal being received.
Note: See more details on pages 7-8.
AutoMute
aMute ON (AutoMute on)
In this setting, Passport’s audio alerts will
initially be at the volume you set, but after a
few seconds, Passport will automatically
reduce the volume level, to keep you
informed, but not annoyed. (factory default)
aMuteOFF (AutoMute off)
With AutoMute off, Passport’s audio alerts
will remain at the volume you set for the
duration of the radar encounter.
Audio Tones
Tone STD (Standard tones)
This setting uses more pleasing tones.
(factory default)
ToneLOUD (Loud tones)
This setting uses tones that are more piercing,
and easier to hear in a louder vehicle.
City Mode Sensitivity
City STD (Standard)
In this setting, when you put Passport in the
City mode, X-band sensitivity is significantly
reduced, to minimize annoyance from
X-band intrusion alarms and motion sensors.
(factory default)
City LoX (Low X-band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put Passport 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 Passport in the
City mode, Passport 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
Passport is operated in City mode. X-band
sensitivity is not affected when used in
“Auto” or “Highway” modes.
Brightness
Brt AUTO (Auto)
Display brightness automatically adjusted to
suit the ambient lighting in your vehicle.
Brt MIN (Minimum)
Sets display to minimum brightness.
Brt MED (Medium)
Sets display to medium brightness.
Brt MAX (Maximum)
Sets display to maximum brightness.
Brt DARK (Dark)
In this setting, Passport will only display a
very dim HD, AD, or CD for the power-on
indication, and will not show any visual
alerts when signals are detected.
Bands
BandsALL
In this setting, all radar, laser, and SWS
frequencies are monitored. This is the
factory default setting, and it is highly
recommended that you use your Passport in
this mode.
BandsMOD
In this setting, Passport will warn you with
an audible alert and a text message, that one
or more bands have been turned off in
programming (i.e. “SWS OFF”). This
warning is displayed during the start-up
sequence (standard or fast).
WARNING: Do not disable a radar or
laser band unless you are certain it is
not used for speed measurement in
your area.
