whistler xtr-695se high performance radar detector
whistler s xtr-695se is a detector that maximizes sensitivity and minimizes falsing . ka max mode gives you improved ka band sensitivity . radar signature id displays known ka gun frequencies to help distinguish threats and laser signature id does the same by displaying pulses per second of received laser signals . take advantage of 360-degree coverage for all radar and laser bands whistler s patented pop-mode detection and a wealth of bonus features like a 72-point digital compass and vehicle battery voltmeter . a detector that maximizes sensitivity and minimizes falsing . click to enlarge . 4.41 x 2.84 x 1.35 inches and just 5.6 ounces . this unit features whistler s low-profile alert periscope leds that flash when the unit alarms . choose from 7 different display colors . for example x band can alarm in green k band in red and ka can scroll all the colors . ka rsid ka radar signal identifier identify the difference between the likelihood of a ka threat vs. the likelihood of a ka false from another source possible radar detector . the ka rsid feature will educate you to the common ka speed radar guns by displaying the nominal police radar frequencies of 33.8 ghz 34.0 ghz 34.3 ghz 34.7 ghz 35.5 ghz . the ka alerts that do not fall into the common ka speed radar windows will be reported only as ka . lsid laser signal identifier identify the laser gun s pulse rate or pps pulses per second that is transmitted by the speed laser gun . lsid may also be used to identify other forms of laser sources such as lacc laser assisted cruise control systems found in some high end vehicles . if the laser pps information displayed is due to another source such as local airports or lacc lsid allows you to lock out this rate from giving you the continuous audio alert during this and any new encounter of the same rate . three filtering mode there are times when a radar detector can emit the same frequency as police radar and can cause your detector to falsely alarm . sometimes a detector can display a signal when picking up another radar detector in vehicle close by . the whistler filter mode options provide additional signal processing to minimize the occurrences of these false alarms . filter mode provides normal processing . filter 1 and filter 2 modes provide additional signal analysis before alarming . 7 color backlit lcd text display the xtr-695se s brilliant text display provides distinct visual confirmation of signals detected signal strength and indicates engaged modes of operation . you can choose from 7 different display colors for a bit of personalization even assigning a different color for each band or scrolling colors . 72 point digital compass keep your bearing visible to stay oriented and get accurate voice alerts . vehicle battery monitor the vehicle s battery voltage can be displayed at the press of a button so you can monitor your battery level . external audio jack the 2.5 mm external audio jack can be used to connect an external speaker or headphones in environments with high ambient noise levels . the internal speaker will be disconnected . intellicord ready add the whistler intellicord and you ll be able to remotely control the radar detector in settings such as power on off city modes dim dark and quiet auto quiet with a simple press of a button . real voice alerts real voice provides added information to the detected signal over and above the simple band id tones . the unit says x band when it detects an x band signal . this allows you to keep your eyes on-the-road . real voice is also used to articulate safety warning system messages and feature selections . real voice will be used to articulate the following band identification safety warning system messages feature selection pop mode alerts there are new guns out there that operate just like the instant-on guns of the past but with a very tough new twist -- pop mode . this new gun is a normal k and ka band radar gun detectable by most radar detectors made in the past 30 years until it s in pop mode . when the gun is in pop mode and activated a brief burst of energy less than 1 15 of a second is transmitted and the vehicle s speed is quickly acquired . a detector without pop mode detection capability can not respond to this brief transmission . this one can . low profile alert periscopes whistler s low profile alert periscopes provide an added attention getting visual alert . the two extra leds flash on and off when the unit alarms to provide a unique visual alert . selectable total band protection this unit provides complete band coverage of all laser radar x k and ka bands vg-2 and safety radar bands . you can select which bands to leave on or off based on your detection needs . 360 degree protection units with 360 protection detect signals from all radar laser vg-2 and safety radar systems wherever they come from front rear or from the side . ka max mode provides enhanced ka sensitivity for increased protection . 3 city modes highway mode highway mode provides full audio and visual warning of laser radar systems while maintaining full sensitivity . highway mode is the default setting of all whistler s laser radar detectors . city mode helps reduce the annoyance of automatic door openers and burglar alarm alerts by providing an initial alert same distance as highway mode then remaining quiet unless the signal strength becomes very strong . when the signal increases the unit will alert briefly to notify you of the change in signal strength . stay alert the stay alert feature is designed to test a driver s alertness . within 30 to 60 seconds after the feature is engaged an alert is sounded to show alertness the driver must press the volume city or the mute button within 3-5 seconds . if a button is pressed within 3-5 seconds the cycle is repeated . if a button was not pressed within 3-5 seconds the unit alarms at full volume and the display shows an unique visual alert . auto dim mode the auto dim feature automatically switches the illumination of the text display between the bright and dim settings according to varying light conditions so that the text display will always be easy to read . quiet auto quiet modes pressing quiet before a signal is detected engages auto quiet mode which automatically reduces the audio level after the initial warning to a low audio level setting . pressing quiet during a radar laser encounter silences audio alerts while allowing visual alerts to keep you informed . alert priority when two or more signals are received at the same time the alert priority is laser vg-2 speed radar safety radar . example if x band is alerting then suddenly a vg-2 signal is detected the vg-2 warning will override the x band alert . vehicle battery saver mode the vehicle battery saver mode automatically shuts off your detector within 3 hours if you forget to turn it off . the timer is reset if the detector is turned off unplugged or any button is pressed before the 6 hours have expired . the detector will alert you with an audible and visual warning before it shuts off . safety warning system -- sws this relatively new radar is not for speed detection at all it is used to keep you informed of highway safety . transmitters are installed and programmed for example in emergency vehicles to make you aware of possible situations that may require your attention such as ambulance vehicles that are moving or stationary road hazards ahead road construction delays or detours etc. what s in the box whistler xtr-695se
