Everything you need to know about the new AL Priority

Is it possible to run all 5 heads up front, will they work together? Or will it just produce PT's and jam codes?

I have not tested 5 heads at once but Beingaware tested heads connected to both the front and rear and he mentioned they all fired back in sync. We are also looking into in the future trying to see if we can get each port configured through setup so you can designate front or rear for each port.

St, watch my test runs. All 5 heads are reacting and jamming the LTI

me and winter tested my rear 5 heads with the ultrlyte/pl2and stalker .....the pl2 and stalker both seen PTs in the exact place the ultralyte missed this week point..... at that time i had rear ports for left side and front ports for right side....so then i swapped some ports around and mixed them all up ...

the pl2 and stalker did not see PT after that

I believe the rear on front ports on the ALP work independently. If this is true then they can interfere with each other.

NO because the cpu infact any laser jammer cpu can only fire one pulse rate at one given time ....other wise we would be able to do to things at once

Is there a complete "how-to" list somewhere on all the functions available from the standard control set buttons? The manual only covers the parking aid features and some of the setup options.

For example, how to switch between defense and detection mode from the control set, or how to turn on recording mode.

Originally that was the design but with the need to have more heads in the front such as a Quad configuration or some even have all 5 heads in the rear for some crazy Poliscan protection if both the front and rear heads see a hit they will all fire back simultaneously. I believe if only the rear heads or only the front heads are fired on separately only the one side will react. This is why if you put a quad configuration you should split for example F1 + R1 = Right Side and F2 + R2 for the Left side this way both heads will see the beam and all will fire back.

Only parking functions are controlled through the control set. All advanced defense modes are set from the setup file created on the ALP Setup site at http://www.alpupdate.com
Many users use a few different color coded USB memory sticks with different programming so they can easily pop one in and within a second or two the ALP will switch all setup options to the settings on the inserted memory stick..

See this Thread - If you are however hit with Laser any button on the control set if pressed will instantly kill defense.

So there's no way to KBJ (Kill Before Jam) if you see the LEO before being shot, short of plugging in a USB drive or powering down the ALP? Can you do it with ALP Connect?

I suppose in that situation you could just keep your finger over the button and as soon as it starts alerting, press it to JTK immediately.

Sounds like a suggestion for a future firmware update, to allow toggling between modes at the press of a button.
