Whistler PRO-78 Radar Detector User Manual


 
POP
Mode Alerts
Because POP
Mode radar utilizes the same
K or Ka band frequencies, POP
Mode Alerts will be
displayed as regular radar alerts.
LASER/RADAR ALERTS
Speed Radar Audio/Visual Alerts
When X, K or Ka is detected, the band ID and
signal strength are displayed. The audio alert is
continuous and has a geiger counter-like
pattern. The faster the beep, the closer or
stronger the radar source.
Laser Audio/Visual Alerts
When a laser signal is detected the audio alert is
continuous for a minimum of 3 seconds.
• The Displays Shows:
Pulse Protection
®
Pulse (or instant-on) radar is more difficult to
detect than conventional radar because it
remains ‘off’ until activated to measure the speed
of a targeted vehicle.
When a pulse type transmission is detected, your
Whistlerdetector sounds an urgent 3-second
audio warning and the display shows:
After the 3-second pulse alert, the standard alert
pattern continues for as long as the signal is
pr
esent.
It is important to respond promptly to a pulse
alert, since warning time may be minimal.
POP MODE ALERTS
Alert Priority
When two or more signals are received at the
same time, the alert priority is:
1. Laser
2. Speed Radar
3. Safety Radar
Example:
If X band is alerting, then suddenly a laser
signal is detected, the laser warning will
override the X band alert.
