Radar/ Laser Detection(Optional)
Emergency Vehicle Warnings(Optional)
DR-2’s optional radar detector reacts to SWS (Safety Alert®
Traffic Warning System).
DR-2’s optional radar detector detects X, K, New K, Super
Wide Ka bands and laser. Please refer to the Specifications
for more information.
STS (Signal Tracking System, Optional)
Radar signals with increasing intensity will be tracked by
DR-2’s optional radar detector, and the alert will not be interrupted by temporary interference to hold user’s awareness of
a true threat.
Built-in Speed Limit Map
DR-2 shows current local speed limit on the upper right corner
of its display and activates its optional radar detector only
when you exceed the speed limit under Adaptive Threshold
Mode.
Fixed Pole Speed/ Red Light Camera Alerts
Other POI based Warnings
A voice alert is activated while you are approaching a
camera spot whose coordination data is stored in the database.
To minimize driver distraction, DR-2 only reacts to
cameras targeting the traffic flow you are in. The display will
start to count down the distance to the spot, and a speeding
alert will be activated if current speed is beyond the local
speed limit in the case of approaching a speed camera spot.
Speeding alert will change from “You are speeding.” to
“Please slow down!” if a radar signal is detected in a camera
warning zone to raise additonal awareness of a true threat, if
you have the optional radar detector installed. You will hear
a chime when the countdown reaches zero. The higher the
speed limit is, the longer the countdown distance becomes.
A voice alert is activated when you are approaching a mobile
speed camera spot, railway crossing, school zone and dangerous
zone whose coordination data is stored in the database.
