LASER/RADAR ALERTS
Speed Radar Audio/Visual Alerts
When X, K, or Ka is detected, the band ID and
signal stre
ngth is displayed. The audio alert is
c
ontinuous and has a pattern like a geiger
counter. 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 Display 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
Whistler detector 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 impor
tant to respond promptly to a pulse
alert, since warning time may be minimal.

MODE ALERTS
VG-2 Audio/V
isual 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
own radiated signal and becomes undetectable by the
V
G-2. Every 30 seconds, the detector checks for a VG-2
s
ignal. 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 (see pg. 11).
Alert Priority
When two or more signals are re
ceived at the same
time, the alert priority is:
1. Laser 2. VG-2 3. Speed Radar 4. Safety Radar
Example: If X band is alerting, then suddenly a VG-2
signal is detected, the VG-2 warning will
o
ver
ride the X band alert.
