VG-2 Detection
When a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 alert is
sounded for 3 seconds and the display flashes
the “
V
V
/
/
L
L
” icon for 30 seconds.This cycle is
repeated if the VG-2 signal is again detected.
During the period a VG-2 signal is detected, a
radar signal cannot be detected. However,
because the VG-2 alert has confirmed that a
patrol car is nearby, you are already aware of the
potential for speed monitoring and can adjust
your speed accordingly. Laser detection is not
affected while a VG-2 signal is detected.
VG-2 Audio/Visual Alerts
Note: You must turn this feature on before it will
detect VG-2.
When a VG-2 signal is detected, the detector ‘hides’ its
o
wn radiated signal and becomes undetectable by
the VG-2.
Every 30 seconds, the detector checks for a VG-2
signal. If a VG-2 signal is still present, the unit
continues to hide and repeats the VG-2 alert. If no
signal is detected, two beeps are provided,
indicating an “all clear” condition. During a VG-2
Alert X, K, and Ka band signals cannot be
received (Reference page 21 for VG-2 information).
