ProLaser III
Kustom Signals, Inc.
IACP approved
Introduced 1998
OPERATION
- single-unit hand-held system
supply voltage -- car or internal battery
OPTIONS
-- tripod mount
-- Removable Corded Power Insert with 12V Adapter Plug
-- Internal Removable Battery Pack/Charger
-- External Battery Pack with Charger
-- Windows-based LaserStat Traffic Statistics Package
-- Heavy Duty Carrying Case
- HUD (Heads-Up Display)
allows operator to view target, illuminated aim dot and target speed (or range) in one window.
- Instant On
- stationary operation only
- measures speed and range for on-coming and/or going traffic
(also measures range of stationary objects)
- Target (moving) Acquisition Time
0.3 sec typical (minimum)
- Self Test
Self test runs on initial power up and operator command (TEST button).
- stopwatch mode
Operator inputs distance (300 to 4500 feet, 1 ft increments) between objects, and pushes a button when a target passes each object (ladar calculates time between button pushes); ladar computes target speed from distance (known) divided by time (button pushes). Calculated target speed displayed in target window, elapsed time (to tenths of a second) displayed in range window. Ladar does not transmit to calculate speed in this mode.
CONTROLS
- Transmit / Lock display
TRIGGER pressed -- transmitting
TRIGGER released -- display locked
speeds remains on display until next transmission
- MODE
-- Measure Speed or Range
- TEST / ENTER
Test -- start Self Test
Enter -- activates selected menu option
- BRT/VOL

- MENU/ESC
Menu -- displays options on LCD
Esc -- exit menu mode to speed or range mode
- PWR
-- Power ON / OFF
DISPLAYS / INDICATORS
- HUD
-- aiming reticle
-- speed or range
- Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
Target Speed
5 to 200 mph (> 8 to 321 kmh)
displays plus (+) in front of speed for approaching targets
displays minus (-) in front of speed for receding targets
accuracy: +/- 1 mph (+/- 2 kmh)
Target Range
10 to +4,000 feet (3 to +1330 meters)
accuracy: +/- 0.5 feet (+/-0.2 meters)
resolution: 0.1 feet (0.1 meters)
Alpha Messages: (error messages)
LV Alert -- battery approaching minimum voltage
LV Warnimg -- battery low (unit does not function)
Error -- internal problem (unit does not function)
- Speaker
no tone -- no target in beam
intermittent tone -- target near beam
constant tone -- processing and displaying target speed / range
SPECIFICATIONS
The unit is programmable, some specifications and features, such as speed/range in English or metric units (mph/ft or kmh/m) are a function of software version installed. Some software versions display range (instead of speed) on HUD.
