CONTROLS AT A GLANCE QUICK GUIDE THANK YOU... for purchasing the wireless STEEL EYE radar/POP/laser detector, developed by PNI Corporation. The STEEL EYE is among a new generation of “superwide” radar detectors that senses police radar signals on all three of the most common radar bands — X, K, and superwide KA. Plus, it detects the newest police laser and POP devices, both of which are growing in usage nationwide. This Guide provides all the information you need for putting the STEEL EYE to work for you. For STEEL EYE technical specifications or downloads of the most recent version of this Guide, visit www.pnicorp.com. HOW TO USE THE GUIDE ➢ = An action to be taken ó = Additional information about the topic USE THE QUICK GUIDE if you are familiar with radar detectors and want to quickly “jump start” your STEEL EYE. REVIEW THE COMPLETE GUIDE if you’ve never used a radar detector before, or if you have problems operating the STEEL EYE. 1. INSERT THE BATTERIES. For wireless convenience, use AA alkaline batteries to power your STEEL EYE radar detector: ➢ Slide open the battery door on the back of the STEEL EYE radar detector. ➢ Insert two fresh AA alkaline batteries, with the head of the batteries (positive poles) facing in. ➢ Slide the battery door closed and shut tight. 2. INSTALL ON YOUR WINDSHIELD. For best performance in detecting police radar signals, install the STEEL EYE on your vehicle windshield: ➢ Clean a spot on your windshield that will allow easy viewing of both the STEEL EYE screen and the road. ➢ Bend the mounting bracket as needed to ensure the radar detector will sit level (horizontal) with the road when mounted. ➢ Insert the suction cups into the bracket. ➢ Press the suction cups firmly against the windshield until they take hold. ➢ Attach the radar detector to the bracket. 3. POWER UP. ➢ Press the POWER button to turn the radar detector on and off. ó The POWER icon will be lit on the screen when the detector is on. If you are using battery power, the POWER icon and all other icons will blink. If you are using the 12volt power cord, the POWER icon and all other icons will be continously lit. ó If you are using battery power, the radar detector will use the Auto Shut-off feature (see MONITORING YOUR BATTERY POWER) to conserve battery power. ó If you are using the 12V power cord, the radar detector will automatically turn on and turn off with your vehicle's ignition system, assuming the ignition system controls power to the 12 volt. If the ignition system doesn't control the 12 volt, you will need to manually control the detector. 4. ADJUST SCREEN BRIGHTNESS. ➢ Press and hold the MUTE button for several seconds to access the DIM mode. ➢ Release the button to select a screen brightness of ‘BRIGHT,’ ‘DIM’ or ‘DARK.’ 5. TURN ON FALSE-ALERT FILTER. The false-alert filter screens out false alerts often caused by automatic door openers, flight towers, etc. ➢ Press the FILTER button to turn the false-alert filter ON. (Press again to turn OFF.) 6. ADJUST THE VOLUME. Use the Signal Alert Test to adjust the volume BEFORE getting an alert signal: ➢ Press and hold the POP and FILTER buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. ó The screen will display each of the radar bands monitored by the STEEL EYE (X, K and Ka), and will sound the audio alarm for each signal alert. ➢ Increase or decrease the alert volume level by turning the VOLUME control. If you are missing any of these items, please call us at 1-888-422-6672 and we’ll ship them to you immediately. WHAT’S IN THE PACKAGE hook-and-loop fastener 2 AA alkaline batteries 12V DC coiled power cord Windshield mounting bracket (Shown with suction cups installed) 2 suction cups STEEL EYE™ Radar/POP/Laser Detector DC 12V POWER CORD jack AUXILIARY AUDIO jack POWER button BATTERY DOOR BRACKET SLOT LASER EYE MUTE POP FILTER [ DI M ] TEST The STEEL EYE is one of a new generation of “superwide” radar detectors that detects police radar devices operating on all three of the most common radar bands — X, K, and superwide KA. It also detects police laser devices and POP radar gun mode, and is invisible to VG-2 radar detector - sensing technology. A History of Radar Band Activity X Band — Except for a few early devices, most police radar devices only used the X band frequency (10.50~10.55 GHz) until the mid-1970’s. Today this frequency is used by only a small number of police radar devices, as well as many non-radar devices such as automatic door openers and burglar alarms. The X band frequency produces most of the false alerts so common to radar detectors. K Band — Police radar devices started using the K band frequency (24.05~24.25 GHz) to detect vehicle speed in 1976, leading to the development of the first dual band (X and K) radar detectors. KA Band (“wide-band”) — The introduction of KA band photo radar (34.3 GHz) in the 1990’s led to the development of tri-band radar detectors able to detect X, K and a small portion of KA bands. As the usable KA bandwidth expanded, “wide-band” radar detectors emerged capable of detecting X, K and wide KA (34.2~35.2 GHz). KA Band (“superwide-band”) — In response to the BEE 36A police radar device, a new generation of “superwide - band” detectors has been developed, capable of detecting all radar devices operating on X, K and superwide KA (33.4~36.0 GHz) bands. The STEEL EYE is a superwide band radar detector. How Laser Devices Work Police laser devices transmit an invisible light beam at a frequency (or “wavelength”) of 904 nanometers. Less than 5% of all speed monitoring devices sold in the U.S. are currently laser devices, but their usage is expected to increase. The STEEL EYE detects all current laser devices in use. POP Radar Gun Mode Operation POP is an instant-on, ultra-fast mode of radar gun operation that uses existing radar frequencies. POP mode can pick up a vehicle speed reading so fast (less than one-tenth of a second) that most radar detectors will not signal an alert. The STEEL EYE can detect POP radar …
