Introduction
Welcome to the world of sophisticated, early warning laser/radar
detection. You have purchased one of the most advanced laser/radar
detectors available. The LRD 2200SWS is a complete integrated
laser/radar detector. It responds to the X-, K-, and Ka-SuperWideband
radar guns in use today and also provides 360° detection of the latest
speed monitoring system — the laser gun. The built-in Safety Warning
System (SWS™) is capable of detecting a hazardous warning signal
transmitted on the

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. The time required for the signal to leave the gun, bounce off an object, and return is used to determine a vehicle’s distance and speed. Radar Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) is a microwave system for detecting the speed of moving objects by reflected puls

Laser The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LIDAR (for Light 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. Unlike radar, the laser gun emits a very narrow beam of light, so it can pinpoint a speeding car within traffic. The infrared beam spreads out, but slowly and over a longer distance than a radar signal. The lase

Installation The LRD 2200SWS 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. The inherent nature of radar waves makes them reflect off metallic surfaces. This is why these waves are so useful for measuring the speed of a vehicle. The IR laser light may reflect only from shiny surfaces. Both radar waves and IR laser

Adjusting the Windshield Mounting Clip 1. The metal portion of the bracket locks into the plastic portion at three different positions. 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. 2. For optimum laser detection, bend the angled portion of the windshield mounting bracket so that the LRD 2200SWS is parallel to the road surface. Be sure the LRD 2200SWS is mounted so i
