Interpreting
Alerts
Although
the
RX65
has a comprehensive
warning system
and
this
handbook
is
as
complete
as
we
can make it, only
experience
will
teach
you
what
to
expect
from
your
RX65
and
how
to
interpret
what
it tells you.

Alert
The
RX65
begins to sound slowly, then the
rate ofalert increases. The
Signal
Meter ramps
accordingly.
RX65
emits short alerts for a few seconds
~nd
then
falls
silent only to briefly alert and
fall
silent again.
RX65
suddenly sounds a continuous tone for
the appropriate band received.
All

RX65
receives weak signals. These signals may
be
a little stronger
as
you pass large, roadside
objects. The signals increase in frequency.

the
type
of
transmission (continuous
or
instant-on)
and
the

of
the

the
radar alerts
you
receive.
The following
examples
will give
you
an
introduction
to
understanding
the
RX65's
warning
system
for
radar, laser
and
safety alerts.
Explanation
You are approaching a continuous radar
source aimed in your direction.
An
instant-on radar source
is
being used ahead
of
you and
out
of
your view.
An
instant-on radar source
or
laser source
is
being used nearby. This kind ofalert requires
immediate attention!
Laser
is
being used in the area. Because laser
is
inherently difficult to detect, any laser alert
may indicate a source very close
by.
Amoving patrol car with continuous radar
is
overtaking you from behind. Because these
signals are reflected (reflections are increased
by large objects), they
mayor
may not
eventually melt into a solid point even
when
the patrol car
is
directly behindyou.
