GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM AND 360˚ LASER DETECTOR Uniden’s GPSRD radar detector provides patented artificial intelligence technology which calculates your driving patterns to eliminate falsing.
Pr ecautions Important: The GPSRD was not designed to help you disobey the law . Safe drivers always obey the posted speed limit and legal driving methods at all times. Federal and Local Regulations The FCC passed the Communications Act in 1934 to give all citizens the right to receive any type of radio transmission.
Operation Notice of GPS GPS signal reception can be affected by the location of satellites, tall buildings, tunnels, bridges, etc. If the GPSRD is not receiving a signal, you will need to change your location until a signal is received.

Intr oduction W elcome to the world of sophisticated, early warning laser/radar detection with GPS (Global Positioning System). Y ou have purchased one of the most advanced laser/radar detectors available. The GPSRD is a completely integrated laser/radar detector .
the following methods: • When no driving is made in the same area for 1~2 months after learning. • When no interference signal of the same frequency exists for 1~2 months after learning. • User deletes stored information manually . Note: A maximum of 5,000 locations can be stor ed in memory .
Feature Highlights GPS Features • Latitude & Longitude Display • Elevation Display • T op Speed Display • Preprogrammed City Coordinates • Electronic Compass • Direction to Destination.
Speed Detection Systems A speed detection device (often called a radar gun) sends out either a microwave signal or beam of light. When this signal reaches its target, part of the signal is reflected or bounced back toward the emitting gun.
Laser The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LIDAR (for Li ght Detection and Ranging), 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 toward, or going away from, the laser gun.
Included with Y our Radar Detector 6 If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact your dealer immediately . Be sure to complete and mail the Product Registration Card.
Contr ols and Functions 7 1. 360º Laser Detection Lenses − For 360º detection of laser signals. 2. Clip Release − Press the clip release button to set or remove the GPSRD from the windshield mounting clip. 3. CITY Key − With each press, the level to cut out weak signals changes from 0 (min) to 4 (max).
7. ▲ / ▼ Key − Press these keys to toggle through the programming menu to view choices. 8. LED Display − LED displays LASER/RADAR alerts, signal strength, operation mode, and GPS information such as direction, distance, etc. 9. On-Off/V olume Control − Turns the power on (with a click) and adjusts the audio alert volume.
Installation The GPSRD uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receive radar/laser signals. Its sensitivity and range depend on the method of installation and the direction of the antenna/sensor in relation to the signal source.
• Do not leave the unit in direct sunlight or in the glove compartment of a closed car for long periods of time, as extreme changes in temperature may cause internal damage. Also, removing the unit from the windshield makes you less susceptible to break-in and theft.
Connecting the Power Using the Cigarette Lighter Adapter A coiled power cord provided 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 12V DC power input on the side of the unit.
Replacing the Fuse The cigarette lighter plug contains a 1-ampere fuse to protect it from power surges. 1. T o replace the fuse, unscrew the top of the plug. 2. Remove the fuse and replace it with the same type. 3. T o replace the top, push in on the two metal contacts and twist into place.
Operation Y ou are now ready to enjoy the convenience and security of your GPSRD. Please read this section of the Operating Guide carefully to familiarize yourself with the basic operation of this unit. Power On T urn the V olume Control knob to turn power on.
V olume Control Adjust the V olume to a comfortable alarm tone level for your vehicle. The volume level does not have any ef fect on the unit’ s sensitivity . Menu Function T o enter into the Menu function, press the ▲ key . There are seven setting modes in the Menu function; Navigate, Mark Loc, Speeds, Position, Database, Alrt Lvl, and Option.
Note: • T o exit from the Menu function, pr ess the EXIT/ALERT key . If no key is pr essed within 30 seconds, the GPSRD will r eturn to the display screen. • If the detector cannot r eceive signals from the GPS satellite, “ - ” and “ ? ” may appear on the display .
• In the case of City , Dallas for example 1. Select “Navigate” using the ▲ or ▼ key . 2. Press the SELECT/TRAP key . 3. Select “City” using the ▲ or ▼ key . 4. Press the SELECT/TRAP key to indicate the states. 5. Select “T exas” using the ▲ or ▼ key .
• In any case of other than City , you have to r egister the latitude and longitude at first. (See Mark Loc Section) 1. Select “Home”, for example, using the ▲ or ▼ button. 2. Press the SELECT/TRAP button. After “Selected” indication, the display returns to the Normal mode.
3. Speeds Select “Speeds” and press the SELECT/ TRAP button. In this mode, the detector displays the maximum or average speed data stored in the GPS module. Use the ▲ or ▼ keys to toggle between the maximum and average display . T o delete the data, select “Delete?” and press the SELECT/ TRAP button.
5. Database Select “Database” and press the SELECT/TRAP key . In this mode, you can delete the data for False Alerts and T rap Locations programmed in the GPS module. Select “False” or “T rap” with the ▲ or ▼ button, and press the SELECT/TRAP button if you want to delete the data.
Example: X Band Note: • The alert tones for the radar , laser , and SWS are all differ ent. • The warning featur e won’ t be functional if you are driving less than 10 MPH. City/Highway Mode Y ou can change the detector ’ s sensitivity to activate its warning feature according to your driving area.
False Area In highly populated areas, you may encounter many devices that use the same frequencies as radar signals, such as motion detectors, automatic doors, and intrusion alarms.
W arning Display in the False Area When the GPSRD detects signals in the false area, it displays the following: 1. If the signal strength is less than the predefined level. (No alert tone sounds.) 2. If the signal strength is more than the predefined level.
2. Press the EXIT/ALERT key while receiving signals when driving in the same false area. The function is switched on/off, and the display changes as follows: Note: • If the signal str ength is more than the pr edefined level, the vehicle speed will be indicated on the display instead of the right 3 characters “STP”.
Example: Note: • “T rapFULL” appears on the display with an err or tone if memory space for marking “T raps” is full. • T o clear the marked location, pr ess the SELECT/TRAP button while driving within the Level 3 “T rap” ar ea. “CLR T rap” appears on the display .
Car e and Maintenance The GPSRD is designed to give you years of trouble-free service. There are no user -serviceable parts inside, and, except for the fuse, no maintenance is required. T o keep your detector in new condition, follow these important suggestions: • Never leave the GPSRD on the windshield when you park your vehicle.
