There are actually two "protection modes" in the ALP. Privacy Protection and Theft Protection. They are different service codes but work similarly. Both put a key file on the USB which is then required for the unit to function. The difference is how the unit responds without the key: in Privacy mode it'll only function as parking sensors, in theft mode it won't function at all, or power up without the key.

The Theft Protection isn't documented anywhere except in the FAQ on the AL site.

Once either of these are enabled there's no way to remove it, so I don't recommend most people use them unless they really need to.

regardless how many protection codes or GPS modes do you think a cop is going to perform a test there and then on the side of the road ?

when one JTG to many times the side cutters come out and the system will be removed on the spot

i have a friend here in perth ,, jammers are legal but when you upset the cop to many times it may or will just land you in court and the system was cut from his car he was using the stinger with a set speed limit

as for me been using AL and other jammers for 7 years only becouse they where used correctly

if the AL cpu is registered to you they can remove lock keys ETC,,, but if i was to take your CPU and get it unlocked they will tell me to F@@@off

what if one travels over seas and the cpu is locked to a region where do we go from there

It depends on where you are located and how LEOs respond to jammers.

In most areas, as long as you use them correctly and JTK, you won't run into any problems.

Where parking-only modes are useful is if you get pulled over (even if not for jamming) and they notice the sensors and inquire about them. "They're parking sensors, Officer."

In some parts of Virginia, LEOs are aware of jammers and will shoot a car that they see heads on even if they're not speeding, or stopped in traffic, to see if they are jamming, and they get pulled over and ticketed if they are. Switching to parking-only or detect-only mode prevents this.

I'd like to see 2 new features added to the Android version. The first implement an option for the app to return focus of the previous app when an alert is presented after a predetermined amount of time so that you don't have to hit the back button to go back to the application that was on the screen before. Secondly control of the new profiles that we were just given with the firmware update specifically so that we can change the radar modes.

A big thank you to everyone that responded over the privacy key situation - I now have that up and running with a quick pull usb drive should the need arise. A really great feature.

I now have taken delivery of the HiFi Controller and was about to re-install my gear using this however I have read that I will lose the pro-mode beeping/flashing on targeting. Is there any chance in the future of creating an amalgamation of the two such that there can be a quick snappy voice alert followed by audible and visual pro-mode targeting data?

I'd love to have the voices on my ALP but think the pro-mode setting is brilliant.

Thanks Tom.

I've just switched over to the HiFi module, speaker placed in the central tunnel right beside me when I'm driving. Update to new control set and voice-packs took 5 mins or so and ended with a very pleasant lady telling me the data had been uploaded.

Pro-mode works like a charm with the voice announcing the gun plus front/rear designator, followed by the same led and control set beep response as before and now with an added sound form the speaker.

Excellent stuff, I've fallen in love with my ALP. :o

Another request!

Any chance of having the ability to set PDC front and rear to different sensitivities? This is because that when in traffic my ALP goes off when it obviously sees its own reflected signals off the number plate of the car in front.

I actually would like the rear sensors to be set to a higher sensitivity then the front

It's not just license plates, it's any reflective surface. Unfortunately, the ALPs weren't really designed as very good parking sensors (they don't indicate a specific distance, only certain strength of returned/reflected signal). I've had the ALPs go off as parking sensors when nearly 10 feet away from chrome bumpers, and fail to activate 3 feet from other objects.

I mean if you have a prerelease windows 10 installed on your windows phone it can load APK with a tool called APKtoWin10m.

This is normal because it has to transmit a pulse and see how quickly it can catch the pulse back. More reflective objects like chrome will reflect back quicker than lets say drywall in a garage.

If it really worked by round trip time to determine distance the same way LIDAR guns or laser rangefinders do, this wouldn't be an issue. The only reason chrome and other reflective surfaces are an issue are because it operates based on the strength of the returned pulse rather than its timing.

Here's one I may have mentioned before but is more relevant now that the Net Radar is out.

I suggest adding the ability to use the HiFi control set and BT app simultaneously. With the current BT module it's one or the other--BT connects, HiFi doesn't work, BT disconnects, HiFi works. Alerts could be sent to both the app and the HiFi, and commands could be issued from either-- JTK or mute by hitting a button on the control set or tapping the icon on the app.

This way you can use the app for Net Radar lockouts and frequency display, while retaining the use of the loud HiFi speaker.

Depending on the design of the current BT module this should be doable with a firmware update, or at worst, an updated BT module.

There have been 2 versions of the BT module. Not sure where you are coming up with 4 versions. One with a pass through for the controller and one without. Both still work and operate fully as they were advertised.

Has anyone requested a minor update to the phone software (I use iOS) that would enable better logging of activity?

Personally I would like to see time stamp of every user interaction. For example I'd like to see when I change profiles, when I get hit with speed (obviously) and a time stamp for when I kill the jammer with speed (similar to when you get hit).

Not critical but would be interesting to review after an encounter.

There have been 3. You are forgetting the 2.0 version that came out between the first one and the 3rd (current). See your posts #3 and #5 at the link below. In our conversation we are talking about the 2.0 module, which was before the latest one with the dual connectivity.
http://radarandlaserforum.com/showthread.php/8172-ALP-Connect-FW2-0-Revision-Bluetooth-Module-Problems

In any case, I'm right as the first one can't upgrade the ALP firmware via BT, v2.0 and 3 (current) can. Also, and I may be mistaken on that one, V1 and V2 are deprecated so they can only operate with older firmware installed on the ALP.

There are 2 BT Modules (V1 and V2) the HW 2.0 was a different Firmware loaded on the original BT Module's BT processor to try to add update firmware capability and add future capability to the original BT Modules but it was not successful because as new phones were introduced and existing phones had operating system updates we could not keep up with changes on new BT protocols that evolved because there was no way to update the BT chips in the original BT Module without removing the processor and putting them in a programmer, reprogram them and then re-install the processors. The original BT module still works 100% for ALL of its original advertised functions. The V2 Module (2nd BT Module w/Pass Through) is firmware updateable so we can now update the BT Processor via ALP Connect so we can now keep up with phone changes that effected new features such as the ability to update CPU Firmware, RG Modules, BT Module, Etc over BT.

citrus
07-23-2016, 10:09 AM
I get that, but the bottom line here is that even though the HW 2.0 was just a firmware update to the V1 hardware, the end user couldn't do it, so I stand correct in the fact that I've now had to buy 3 modules, and I have no desire to have to buy a 4th if it means that older BT devices will not be able to access NEW upcoming features.

And when we rolled out 2.0 on the original BT Modules we did it as a FREE update for 1-2 months until we realized it was a loosing battle because at the time a new phone was released and the advanced update features stopped working because of a BT change on a new phone. There was no way to keep mailing units back and forth updating processor firmware manually when phones and operating systems changed so we abandoned the idea of firmware updates on the original BT modules. The Original BT Modules were never advertised as having the ability to update firmware and used basic non advanced protocols and many people are still using the original BT modules almost 3 years with no issues. If they want the new ability to update firmware and connect the wired controller they can sell their old BT Modules and buy a new one. There is heavy demand for used AntiLaser products all over the world.

I would like the option to set an action in the Android version of alp connect which would allow the user to choose what the app should do after an alert is done alerting if it was not in the foreground and took the focus from another app. For instance my ideal option would be for the application to send the "back" command automatically to return the screen Focus to the previously opened app after the alerts are finished.

It's already there. Under audio instead of Mix set it to Duck Audio. Duck meaning it will lower your streaming music to play the ALP Connect sounds over your audio.

This weekend just gone I had a surprise alert on my way to work but did not hear the type of gun, whether it was front or rear, nor did I have the ALP app running at the time.

I pulled the log file but sadly it only lists the total number of laser encounters and not any form of chronological order.

Would it be possible in future to have the stats stored in chronological order such that say the last 5 hits are listed too?

In the future the stats process will be redone and enhanced especially for users with an attached GPS. The ALP does not have a clock so it does not know what day or time it is but using GPS it can capture that data so we can record greater detail for each hit.

Even without a GPS the ALP could record the last few hits in the order they happen, even without a time stamp. It could log power cycles in between the hits (or the current power cycle count with the hit) so you can get an idea as to which drive the hit occurred on. It could even record relative time, say from power up, so say if you get hit 94 minutes after you started the car or powered up the ALP, the log could indicate that if no GPS is present.

Fast n Frivolous
11-03-2016, 01:29 PM
All it requires is a number (gun type) stored in a single register x 5

That gives the gun type for last 5 hits. No time or date stamp is required in the same way that ALP stores the counter for each gun type.

I have changed my front and rear install several times and my CPU is buried in my dash where it's hard to get to. My car didn't do so well at a recent testing event so I wanted to ensure my middle head was plugged into F2. Do I had to take my dash apart and bring the CPU out to confirm...this took about 30 minutes.

That gave me this idea: wouldn't it be nice if there was a yellow menu option where, when activated, instead of beeping when you put your hand in front of a sensor (cause it's s parking sensor) it would audibly say the name of said sensor? It would say "F1.....F1.....F1" or "F2...F2...F2". Etc. That way one could turn their car on parked away from any objects and check that their heads are in the correct port without having to take anything apart.

I think this would have to be only for HIFI and BT users.

I know this can't be implemented on the current ALP even on a hardware update, however when the next generation jammer comes out maybe in a couple of years? Connectors the way they are at the moment are quite large and do not fit through grills, it would be really great to see a skinnier connection, wil it would be great to see a standard USB connection I understand, though there must be some compromise option between the current large circular connector or a miro-usb as used on stinger laser heads on LAB-14's.
While I could make the current ALP head fit with grill mods, I would really prefer not to have to mod my grill.

The Twist and lock connector will not be changing any time soon. We have too many existing customers and we have to make sure if a sensor needs to be changed that they can keep the existing wiring in the vehicle and disconnect the sensor and replace it with a new one. If and when new sensors are ever developed they will be backwards compatible so again wiring would not need to be changed to keep installation costs down and give users the ability to replace sensors without going to a shop and running all new wiring.

Then perhaps another way could be implemented allowing you to remove the cable from the head to allow these sort of installs. In this suggestion I did not have the ALP in mind, but what ever succeeds the ALP in years to come, I know this could not be implemented here and now in any way but I am sure there is some way to make the connectors skinnier, even if it is a head minus the din connector with a straight through to the control unit with only an RJ connector as a possible option?

Is it just me or does the ALP Android app still alerts on the phone for suppressed lockouts? Example, I come up to a K-band alert for the first time, the phone alerts me with sounds and visuals as it should, perfect. I confirm said K-band alert is a false and suppress it on the app. Next time I come up to the same suppressed K-band signal, the app still alerts me with visual but no sound. Is it possible to have to app and ALP not alert me at all (no visual and no sound) for suppressed (locked out) signals. I only want to be alerted for newly encountered signals or signals that where not suppressed. I drive in an area with lots of false K-band alerts so I suppressed the ones I know, but my phone still lights up like a Christmas tree too often when driving pass these known false(suppressed) alerts.

That is proper function. App is allowing you to the presence of a radar signal but it does not alert. It give you visual notification and the ability to unsupress it if you choose.

Muted alerts don't bring the app forward. Only if the app is already in front will it show that there is an alert that is suppressed.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. By "muted alerts" do you mean suppressed alerts? I ask because in the app, muting an alert is different from suppressing it( or am I mistaken? ). To me muting an alert is tapping on the sounds/speaker icon to shut off audio alert for the current radar alert. Are you saying if I mute these false alerts once, they will remain muted the next time I come up to them and the app does not come into focus?

Supressed alerts don't bring the app forward.

So that's the problem I am having, it does for me. I always run the ALP app in the background and Waze in the foreground. The ALP app always come to the foreground for every suppressed alert (visual only, no sound). I am running the app on android. What I am requesting is that the app does not come to the foreground for suppressed alerts.

I have android and ios devices, I have not long ago acquired a new bluetooth module v2, on the Android version of ALP Connect it allows you to pull stats from the ALP that is connected, but the iOS version does not.. Am I missing something here? Or is this something in the works for iOS?

Stats button in ALP Connect is not available for IOS yet.

Is it planned or currently possible to configure separate volume levels for Net Radar alerts based on bands? For instance, being able to set a lower volume for K band alerts? It would be nice if this could also be set independently for front and rear antennas. The K band alerts I get are mostly not LEO and having them blare through my speakers when i am at high volume are annoying. I read a post somewhere that someone mentioned being able to change the voice to male for the front antenna and female for the rear (or vice versa). Where is the setting to make this possible? I have gone through the setup many times and I do not see an option to configure this. This would be a nice option until directional radar alerts become available.

Those who did this have 2 CPUs, one for front and one for rear, each with a HiFi control set, one with a male voice pack and one with the female. Currently there's no way to do this with a single CPU.

I would like the option to set an action in the Android version of alp connect which would allow the user to choose what the app should do after an alert is done alerting if it was not in the foreground and took the focus from another app. For instance my ideal option would be for the application to send the "back" command automatically to return the screen Focus to the previously opened app after the alerts are finished.

Integration with Waze would be great. I would like it to auto report radar and laser events directly to Waze so I do not need to report them manually. Much like the Escort Connect does.

It'd be nice to have an option to provide a notification when the GPS signal has been re-acquired after having lost it. The current system can notify us when the GPS signal is lost, but there doesn't seem to be any way to verify that it has been re-acquired (unless the antenna is mounted in a place where you can see its blinking LED).

I would also like it if there were a way for the application to be able to control its volume independent of the master volume. The reason being I use the tablet in my vehicle as my source for the Bluetooth music and I usually play it pretty loud. as a result when the application wakes up to play a laser or radar or parking alert it is extremely loud and can scare the bejesus out of you.
