For the UltraLyte laser gun, an amber LED under L lights and blinks to indicate the presence of a UltraLyte laser signal. D9) SWS Signal Indicator When an early warning hazard or informational signal is detected, the green SWS LED begins to blink. These positions can be used for vehicles with different vertical angles of their windshields. The back position can be used for vehicles with windshields that are slanted back For optimum laser detection, bend the angled portion of the windshield mounting bracket so that the LRD 6250SWS/ LRD 6275SWS is parallel to the road surface. Be sure the LRD 6250SWS/LRD 6275SWS is mounted so it is free of obstructions from seat backs, rear view mirror, sun visors, or the ceiling of the automobile. There must be a clear 360° line of sight to the outside of the vehicle. Press the button on top of the radar and insert the windshield clip into the LRD 6250SWS/ LRD 6275SWS. The metal portion of the bracket locks in to the plastic portion. Place the bracket and the LRD 6250SWS/LRD 6275SWS in the proper location on the windshield of your vehicle, and press the suction cups firmly against the windshield. 2) To mount the LRD 6250SWS/LRD 6275SWS: 1) 2) 10 CONNECTING THE POWER The LRD 6250SWS/LRD 6275SWS is designed to operate on most 12 VDC negative ground vehicle electrical systems.
