OPERATION

• multi-piece system
  -- handheld remote
  -- front antenna (optional additional rear antenna)
  -- Computer Processor
  output connector to interface with PCs, display signs, printer
• X and K models (antennas) available
• Instant On or continuous transmissions
• stationary mode -- on-coming traffic
  moving mode -- on-coming traffic in opposite direction/lane
• Manual-lock (Target Speed locked in separate display)
• Manual Self-Test
  optional auto self-test every 15 minutes
• Tuning Forks -- 77.6 mph and 33.2 mph
  optional sets -- (66 and 35 mph), and (110.6 and 45.3 kmh)
• optional kmh display
• optional communications port (to external devices, speed displays, etc.)

• In moving mode targets approaching the radar at the same speed (within +/-1 mph) as the patrol car are not displayed to prevent the possiblility of an incorrect reading due to a harmonic (HAr is displayed in the Target Window until the situation no longer exist).

• LOCK (manual) target speed
• Audio Volume
• Range Control
• City/Highway switch (older models only)
• Squelch
• Test
• Moving/Fixed (stationary)
• Power

• Display -- Target Speed
  Stationary Mode: 10 to 210 mph (16 to 337 kmh)
  Moving Mode: 15 to 210 (closing) mph (24 to 337 kmh)

• Display -- Locked (target) Speed

• Display -- Patrol Car Speed
  15 to 90 mph (24 to 144 kmh)

• Range (Setting) Indicator
  

• Other Indicators
  RFI -- Radio Frequency Interference
  LoV -- Low Voltage (less than 10.8 Vdc)
  SYS -- internal system malfunction
  Front/Rear Antenna -- indicates active antenna
