    Oh I got My ALPS.... Now i have no Clue what to do ...

    Hey guys... ok so i have read and read and read. I followed the instructions on how to up date and i did it, or so i think? Is there anyway to confirm that the up date took and that the setting changes took affect?
    Also drilled a hole for the supplied LED, problem is that it flashes all the time, I thought( assumed ) it only flashed when i was getting an alert? what is the point of this little LED? because i couldnt imagine anyone having that on while driving, that thing is stupid brite!!!
    does anyone know if i need poliscan? Im in FL...
    Suggestions?? Help?

    I just got mine today too lol..

    Will install tomorrow--in the setup file (PRO mode) you can chose to only have the blinky lite to function when you are Targeted!! thats what I did with mine. DO you have the BT module as iit makes it very easy to see what firmware you have

    Yes Keep Poliscan on as thats what BRD told me cause I asked the same question

    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.

    Yes i did and i have 3 files that i down loaded to the usb and followed the instructions. I did get the LED to stop blinking until theres an alert, only problem is i left E/L on so anyone in the area is thinking that LEO are shooting laser in my garage LOL
    Tim, Do you know if poliscan is used in USA? i havent found anything that say yes or no.
    I also set the system to constant jam and installed a separate switch to kill the system and im ok with that, but with it set up this way is there any quick way to switch it to parking mode? I travel from FL to NY often and would like to have a back up in case i do get disco lights

    Correct and I have MD ticket to prove it. My wife was hit in the rear and we only have front protection on her vehicle.
