SPEED DETECTION SYSTEMS A speed detection device (often called a radar gun) sends out either a micro wave signal or beam of light. When this signal reaches its targ et, par t of the signal is reflected or bounced back tow ard the emitting gun.
▼ L ASER The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LID AR (for Li ght D etection a nd R anging), uses a laser gun that emits infrared light pulses just outside the spectrum of visible light. Each reflected pulse measures the speed of the object coming to ward or going away fr om the laser gun.

Rear and Side Laser Detector Lense — For rear and side detection of laser signals. 3. Press the city button to help reduce X-band false alarms while driving in the city.
DISPLAY P ANEL The display panel indicates the driving direction and each mode of the operational conditions when no signal is engaged. At city mode : At highway mode : At audio-only mode : (dim &.
INSTALLATION The LRD 767/LRD777 uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receiv e laser/radar signals. Its sensitivity and range depend on the method of installation and the dir ection of the antenna/sensor in relation to the signal source.
HELPFUL TIPS The antenna and the forward looking sensor ar e located behind the rear panel of the unit, (and the rear - and side-looking sensors are located on top of the unit), directly behind the mode selection keys.
ADJUSTING THE WINDSHIELD MOUNTING CLIP 1) The metal portion of the bracket locks into the plastic portion at two dif f erent positions. These positions can be used for v ehicles with two dif fer ent vertical angles of their windshields. The back position can be used for v ehicles with windshields that are slanted back.
CONNECTING THE PO WER The LRD 767/LRD 777 is designed to operate on most 1 2 VDC negativ e ground vehicle electrical systems. The pow er cord pro vided with the unit has a cigarette lighter socket plug at one end and a small connector at the other . 1) Insert the small connector into the jack on the side of the unit.
REPL A CING THE FUSE The cigarette lighter plug contains a 1-am pere fuse to protect it from po wer surges. 1 . T o replace the fuse, unscrew the top of the plug. 2 Remo ve the fuse and replace it with the same type. 3. T o replace the top, push in the two metal contacts and twist into place.
