This allows you to turn OFF any frequency which you know to be generating false alerts. (Note: You can also turn off a frequency if you know it is NOT used in your area of travel.) For example, because other devices are shared with traffic Radar (see Typical False Alerts, page 23), you may notice a constant X band signal (9.9 GHz) alarming in a specific area you know to be a false alert. By displaying the actual frequency, you are then able to determine if you want to turn that particular frequency OFF. Tr a v e l Mode has ALL 10 Radar frequencies engaged when shipped from the factory. A flashing check mark and horizontal line confirm frequency is ON; a flashing, horizontal line confirms when frequency is OFF. Depending upon the frequencies used in your area of travel, you can turn any of the frequencies OFF. Note: It is important to know what frequencies are used in your area of travel. If you encounter excessive falsing on X, K or Ka bands when operating your unit in Travel mode, you can engage the City All (X, K, Super Wideband Ka) mode or turn the offending Band or Bands off in Selectable Features. (see page 11). If excessive falsing occurs specifically on Super Wideband Ka, select the specific Ka Narrow frequency or frequencies used in your areas of travel. VECTOR 990 International allows you to engage one, two or three specific Ka narrow frequencies (33.8 GHz, 34.3 GHz, 34.7 GHz) For information on frequencies used in Europe, call 1-800-341-2288 (USA) or 1-800-268-3994 (CAN). Note: Ku Band alerts are not supported with Digital Voice. A unique audio tone confirms Ku band signal detection. kSelectable Features Travel Mode The menu of Selectable Features while in Tr a v e l Mode is the SAME as in NAm e r i c a mode with the following differences: 15 • 10 individual Radar frequencies appear which you can turn ON or OFF, depending upon driving environment.
