Interpreting Alerts 18 19 Although Passport has a comprehensive warning system and this handbook is as complete as we can make it, only experi- ence will teach you what to expect from your Passport and how to interpret what it tells you.
How Radar W orks 20 21 How Radar W orks Traffic radar, which consists of microwaves, travels in straight lines and is easily reflected by objects such as cars, trucks, even guardrails and overpasses. Radar works by directing its microwave beam down the road.
22 23 How Laser (Lidar) W orks Laser speed detection is actually LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). LIDAR guns project a beam of invisible infrared light. The signal is a series of very short infrared light energy pulses, which move, in a straight line, reflecting off your car and returning to the gun.
Tr oubleshooting 24 25 Problem Passport beeps briefly at the same location every day, but no radar source is in sight. Passport does not seem sensitive to radar or laser. Passport did not alert when a police car was in view. Passport’s display is not working.
