Beltronics RX45 Owner's Manual - Page 5

Controls and Features Power The Beltronics RX45 was designed to turn on and off with the ignition once it is installed. This is accomplished by connecting the 12-volt interface to a switched ACC connection at the fuse panel. (See installation manual for instructions.) If you prefer, you may also turn the RX45 on and off by pressing the power button located on the display controller. Power-on indication After the RX45's start-up sequence is complete, the matrix display will show "Highway","AutoScan"or"Auto No X"to show which sensitivity mode has been selected. If you prefer, you can select alternate power-on displays. See the Preferences section for details Volume Adjust To adjust the RX45 to your preferred audio level for alerts, simply press and hold the V•Mute button located on the display controller. The audio will increase/ decrease while it is depressed. Once you reach the desired audio level, simply release the button.The RX45 will retain this setting in its memory,even if the system is turned off. When the optional Laser Shifters are connected, (see Accessories section) the V•Mute button can be used to manually stop "shifting" once you have corrected your speed. Simply press the V•Mute twice during the "Laser Shifting" message and the Shifters will cease to transmit. The Shifters will remain in this state for approximately one minute. Once this time has passed, the shifters will automatically reset. A "Shift On" message will be displayed to verify and acknowledge this reset. Mute The V•Mute button, located on the display controller, allows you to silence the audio during an alert. To mute the audio for a single specific signal,briefly press the V•MUTE button. After that radar encounter has passed, the audio will automatically reset and the RX45 will alert you to the next encounter. AutoMute Your RX45 has our patented AutoMute feature.After the RX45 alerts you to a radar encounter at your selected volume level, it automatically mutes the volume to a lower level.This keeps you informed without the annoyance of a continuous full-volume alert. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoMute feature off. See the Preferences section for details. AutoScan / Highway / Auto NoX The "SENS" button selects the RX45's sensitivity setting.We recommend the "AutoScan" mode for most driving. Beltronics's exclusive AutoScan mode provides long-range warning, with minimum false alarms. In this mode, Beltronics's internal computer continuously analyzes all incoming signals and intelligently adjusts the sensitivity - eliminating the majority of false alarms. You can also select conventional "Highway", which provides the maximum sensitivity.Auto NoX provides the same sensitivity as "AutoScan" but turns off Xband completely. Full sensitivity is maintained on all other bands. NOTE: Before using the RX45 in the "Auto NoX" mode, please make sure your area does not use X-band guns to measure speed. 6 7
