Escort Solo S3 - EZ-Programming: Signal, Alert, Tone, City, Brightness, and Band Settings; Signal Strength Meter Options; AutoMute and Audio Tone Settings; City Mode Sensitivity and Brightness Control

Details of EZ·Programming
City Mode Sensitivity
Ci t1d : :;Ti:::i (Standard)
In this setting, when you put Solo S3 in the City
mode, X-band sensitivity is significantly reduced, to
reduce annoyance from X-band intrusion alarms
and motion sensors. (factory default)
Ci t:::l Lo:;.:: (LowX-bandsensitivity)
In this setting, when you put Solo S3 in the City
mode, X-band sensitivity is reduced more than the
standard setting. This will reduce X band alarms
from other sources even further, but also
significantly reduces range to X-band traffic radar.
C i t.1; t·~o:=-=: (No X-band sensitivity)
In this setting, when you put Solo S3 in the City
mode, Solo S3 will not respond to any X band
signals.
WARNING: Only choose this setting if you are
absolutely certain that there are no X band traffic
radar units where you drive.
NOTE: These settings only apply when Solo S3 is
operated in City mode.

1.)(32 CifF (VG2 detection off- factory default) If
the VG2 band (Radar detector detector) i~ turned on,
VG2 units will be detected with an audible and
visual alert Once detected, Solo S3's internal
oscillator will shut down for a period of time,
making it undetectable. Solo S3's oscillator will then
periodically turn back on to see if the VG 2 unit is
still present If not, Solo S3 will return to normal
operation.
NOTE: With VG2 detection on, other radar
detectors could be detected as welL
If you live in an area where a specific band (e.g.
SWS) is not currently used, you can turn that
specific band off.
NOTE: DO NOT TURN ANY BANDS OFF
UNLESS YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT
BAND IS NOT USED IN YOUR AREA.
To disable, or turn a specific band off, enter
program mode and scroll to the "BandsALL"
category using the "REVIEW" button. Using the
"CHANGE" button, select the specific band you wish
to disable, or turn off, (e.g. "SWS ON"). Once you
have selected the specific band, press the top-
mounted Mute button to turn the band on/off.
NOTE: If you have turned off a band, Solo S3 will
warn you with an audible alert, and associated text
message stating which band is turned off, (e.g.
"SWS OFF"). This warning is displayed during the
start up sequence (standard or fast).
