Strongest Signal Mode

All radars track the strongest signal since this is an essential element of tracking history. The radar defaults to the

strongest signal-tracking mode and will stay in this mode until you press the FAST button. In Strongest Signal

tracking mode, the radar displays the speed of the vehicle with the strongest return signal, which is often the closest

vehicle.

Faster Mode

The advanced signal processing algorithms in the Scout 2 simultaneously track multiple vehicles. In FAST mode, the

radar displays the speed of the strongest vehicle and a faster vehicle at the same time. To determine which is the

faster vehicle, the radar takes the strongest return signal and uses it as a reference level. It then looks at the return

signal levels from all other vehicles going faster than the strongest vehicle and compares them to that reference

level. It will display the speed of the vehicle that is moving faster than the strongest signal and is the next strongest

target. In multiple target situations, the next strongest target going faster than the strongest is often closest to the

strongest vehicle.

In the example below, the semi going 99 is the strong target and the overtaking vehicle going 123 is the Fast target.

The vehicle going 136 is ignored since it is not the next strongest target.

To switch from Strongest Signal target to Faster target, press and release the FAST button. The system will remain in

Faster mode until you press the FAST button again or until you lock a speed, which automatically switches the radar

back to the Strongest Signal Mode.

In Fast mode, the radar gun locks only the strongest vehicle speed.

Performance Tips

Understanding potential radar interference and what to do when it occurs can greatly increase the radar's

performance.
