    For example, if an external device can "know" when the ALP is jamming and if there's a way for such device to kill jamming (JTK). Does the radio mute activate only when jamming? Does it give any indication as to when jamming starts and ends? Does it activate during other situations, such as errors or parking sensing? Is there any kind of serial interface that is available for use or is it strictly a proprietary interface? Laser Interceptor in particular has a serial port which can provide this information including what gun is being jammed and for how long. I'm wondering if ALP has something similar. Worst case, the radio mute will work if it mainly activates during jamming, and JTK can always be done by cutting power. I'm just wondering what else is available for I/O.
    The wire you're interested in is the relay wire. It will activate when jamming, but the mute does too. You can also use the LED, but it will flash when being targeted. (if you have it in pro mode). Bluetooth would be the way to go if you wanted to completely interface with the CPU. One nice feature they implemented in the ALPConnect app is the ability to JTK and continue receiving the alerts. You just tap the car on the screen and it will change from Blue to Yellow indicating it is in detection only mode. Blue is defense mode.
