icon indicates an operational antenna and cable, while a blinking icon indicates a 

missing antenna and/or cable, or a malfunction of the antenna unit. 

XMIT/HLD: The 

XMIT/HLD key toggles between XMIT (transmit) and HLD (standby).  The 

XMIT icon will light for transmitting and extinguish for hold. 

FAST LOCK key alternates between faster target lock and release functions.  Pressing 

the  FAST LOCK key with a faster speed in the middle window will lock the faster 

speed along with the present patrol speed. This state is indicated by the illumination of 

both the FAST and LOCK icons.  Pressing FAST LOCK key a second time clears the 

contents of both the lock and the patrol windows. During fast lock, the target window 

and Doppler audio remain active. 

In same lane mode, the SLOWER key is used to toggle between fast target same lane 

mode and slow target same lane mode.  See SAME LANE THEORY section, page 14. 

SEn: The 

SEn key is used to adjust the range up or down at any time.  Maximum range 

(sensitivity) is SEn  4, minimum range (sensitivity) is SEn  1.  The range (or 

sensitivity) must be set separately for same lane moving mode and opposite lane 

moving mode.  While in each mode, (same lane and opposite lane/stationary), indicated 

by the presence or absence of the SAME icon, set each sensitivity as described above. 

SQL: The 

SQL key toggles the squelch override on and off.  In the normal position (squelch 

on), audio will be heard only when a target is being tracked. 

The  PS 5/10/20 key is used to select one of the three selections for low end patrol 

speed of either 5, 10 or 20 mph.  For example: a patrol window indication of 20 starts 

tracking patrol speed at 20 mph, while a patrol window indication of 5 starts tracking 

patrol speed at 5 mph. If the VSS feature is enabled (see section titled “VSS OPTION” 

on Page 21), the PS 5/10/20 key will only display SP when pressed. 

The SELF TEST key performs a diagnostic check on the display/counting unit and 
antenna.  The display/counting unit will complete a display segment test, processor 
check, and crystal check, followed by the display of speeds of 10, 35, and 65; and 
ending with a display of the display/counting unit internal operating temperature in 
degrees Fahrenheit (e.g., 110 

°F) (if the unit has been ordered in kilometers, the 

temperature will be displayed in Celsius (e.g., 35 

°C)), and input battery voltage (e.g., 

bAt 13.8).  A comprehensive test is also performed on the selected antenna by the 
counting unit to ensure the integrity of the antenna cable and antenna electronics.  
PASS or FAIL is indicated on the display unit after all tests have been completed.  

 

(Target Doppler) The 

 

  key is used to adjust the volume of the Target Doppler audio up or down.  

Press the  ▲ or ▼ key to make the display step from Aud 0 to Aud 9 where Aud 9 is 

the loudest.  

 

 

The    key is used to adjust the volume of the beep tones.   Press the▲ or ▼ key to 

make the display step from bEEP 0 to bEEP 9 where bEEP 9 is the loudest. The 

Patrol Speed window will display the beep volume level. 

This is a dual function key.  If the patrol window indicates an incorrect patrol speed, 

the PS BLANK key blanks the patrol speed window and acquires a new patrol speed.  

The PS BLANK key also blanks the patrol speed after the target speed and patrol 

speed are locked.  Press PS BLANK again to restore the blanked speeds.   

LIGHT 

This is a dual-function key.  With a single depression, the LIGHT key activates the 

remote control keyboard back light for six (6) seconds. Two rapid depressions of the 

LIGHT key activate the display unit’s brightness control.  Additional depressions of 

the LIGHT key toggle the display intensity through six levels of brightness, ranging 

from bri 1 (low) to bri 6 (high). In the switched display only, an automatic brightness 

compensation setting of bri A will appear in the sequence of manual brightness 

settings. 

 The counting unit is not waterproof, therefore, you should mount the counting unit in an out-of-the-

weather location.  Plug the front and/or rear antenna cables into the back of the counting unit.  If using only one antenna, 
plug it into the front jack.  Plug the power cord from the counting unit into the cigarette-plug receptacle.
