    In constant mode the LED will stay on and not blink in defense mode. You also need to he running the current 4.4.1 or newer firmware.

    Before looking at an Escort Radar Detector you should really check out Uniden Detectors.. Uniden R1 & R3 are the best performing radar detectors for the money.

    Then you are in dark mode. Go back to the ALP Setup site and make sure you are in Constant Mode or Constant Dim Mode.

    New Firmware Update Available

    Details of the 4.4.2 update (10/21/14)

    1. Improved Error signalization.
    2. Improved and expanded various LIDAR routines.
    3. New Blue Menu

    What is a the new Blue Menu?

    After you have firmware extended your system to the latest firmware some options can be changed manually over a basic Control Set inside the Blue Menu.

    Press MENU and hold as long as LED light turns from Yellow to Blue and you can manually change these blue-menu options:

    1. PDC/DLI/LID option setup
    Pres MENU/Next once (1) when in a blue menu, then press Enter (LED will turn white when you enter submenu)
    Press MENU/Next once, twice, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine or ten times depending on your preference (choose below) then press Enter to activate.
    1 – for Parking detection only
    2 – for PDC&DLI detection only
    3 – for 3 seconds LID defense
    4 – for 4 seconds LID defense
    5, 6, 7, 8,
    9 – for 9 seconds LID defense
    10 – for time unlimited LID defense

    2. PDC disable
    Pres MENU/Next twice (2) when in a blue menu, then press Enter to enable/disable parking detection (PDC)

    3. PRO MODE
    Press MENU/Next 3 times when in a blue menu, then press Enter to enable/disable PRO MODE
    In Pro Mode LED is blinking during LID alert only when being targeted.

    4. SKIP WARM-UP
    Pres MENU/Next 4 times when in a blue menu, then press Enter to enable/disable Skip first warm up

    Don't worry ALP Connect users more functionality will be coming to ALP Connect in the future.

    10 – for time unlimited LID defense
    If you use options 3-10, what happens to radar detection? Does it remain the same as it was last configured by a configuration file? The email I just got explains things a little bit differently:
    1 – for Parking detection only (no lidar or radar detection)
    2 – for PDC&DLI (parking, lidar & radar detection active)
    3 – for 3 seconds LID defense (detection & defense active)
    4 – for 4 seconds LID defense (detection & defense active)
    5, 6, 7, 8,
    9 – for 9 seconds LID defense (detection & defense active)
    10 – for time unlimited LID defense (detection & defense active)

    LID Time does not change your Radar Settings that you already previously set.

    I take it that this applies for all options except (1), correct? Or is it actually possible to have it in PDC-only mode on the LIDAR sensor side and radar detection on (which, curiously, is NOT an option when generating setup files)?

    And if (1) turns off radar detection altogether, is the setting still "memorized" internally so that when I turned LID/DLI back on, it will detect radar again?
