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 767 / LRD 777 is a completely 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 o

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. t RADAR Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) is a microwave system for detecting the speed of moving objects by reflected pu

SPEED DETECTION LASER t The Laser Speed Detection System, also called LIDAR (for Light Detection a nd R anging), 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 ra

CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 1. Clip Release — Press the clip release button to remove the LRD 767/LRD 777 from the windshield mounting clip. 2. Rear and Side Laser Detector Lense — For rear and side detection of laser signals. 3. Press the city button to help reduce X-band false alarms while driving in the city. When you turn on the City Mode, the City indicator turns on. While driving on highways, turn off the City Mode for long-range detection. (LRD 777 will give a voice confirmation.) 4. Press the

INSTALLATION The LRD 767/LRD777 uses a highly sensitive horn-type antenna and IR laser sensor to receive laser/radar 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 las

INST ALL A TION HELPFUL TIPS The antenna and the forward looking sensor are located behind the rear panel of the unit, (and the rear- and side-looking sensors are located on top of the unit), directly behind the mode selection keys. The antenna and sensors should not be obstructed by metal or metallic surfaces and should be pointed at the horizon for accurate long-range detection. • Do not mount the unit behind the windshield wiper blades, radio antenna, tinted glass area, or mirrored glass.

ADJUSTING THE WINDSHIELD MOUNTING CLIP 1) The metal portion of the bracket locks into the plastic portion at two different positions. These positions can be used for vehicles with two 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, gently bend the angled portion of the windshield mounting bracket so that the LRD 767/ LRD 777 is parallel to the road surface. Be sure the LRD 767/LRD

MEMORY RETENTION FEATURE The Memory Retention Feature retains the LRD 767/LRD 777’s operational settings in memory for at least 2 days without power. When you turn on the LRD 767/LRD 777, it will be in the same mode as when you turned it off. FULL WARNING When the LRD 767/LRD 777 detects a radar, laser, VG-2 or safety warning signal, it emits a distinct warning tone and the corresponding visual messages will light.

CITY OPERATION 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. These devices may trigger an alert called “falsing.” To filter most of the weaker signals and get the most accurate radar signal recognition, press city to turn on the City Mode. If you use both the Audio Only Alert and City modes, you won’t receive an audio alert until you are very close to the radar source. In

A weak signal causes the first bar to light, but as signal strength increases, more bars light. All six bars for radar and three bars for laser light when full signal strength is received. Use this meter to judge the distance from the signal source. X K KA LA SE R NOTE : In Audio only mode the signal strength meter * wil
