LASER/RADAR ALERTS
Speed Radar Audio/Visual Alerts
When X, K, or Ka is detected, the band ID and
signal stre
ngth are 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.

Pulse Protection
®
Pulse (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, the
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
present.
It is important to respond promptly to a pulse
alert, since warning time may be minimal.

isual Alerts
N
ote:
Y
ou 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
t
he VG-2.
E
very 30 seconds, the detector checks for a VG-2
signal. If a VG-2 signal is still present, the unit
continues to h
ide and repeats the VG-2 alert
. If no
s
ignal 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).
Alert Priority
When two or more signals are received 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
override the X band alert.
