VG-2 ALERTS
VG-2 Detection Mode
The VG-2, also known as a “radar detector
detector,” is a special receiver used by police to
detect signals radiated by a radar detector. See
page 21 for more information on VG-2.
When a VG-2 signal is detected, the VG-2 alert
is sounded. After 3 seconds, the audio is
cancelled and the VG-2 indicator flashes at a
slower rate. Every 30 seconds, the detector
checks for a VG-2 signal. This cycle is repeated if
the VG-2 signal is detected again. If no signal is
detected, two beeps are provided indicating an
“all clear” condition.
During the period a VG-2 signal is detected, a
radar signal cannot be detected. However
,
because the VG-2 aler
t 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.
