    Shot a quick IR video to confirm for any of you guys that were concerned. Pressing ANY button on the controller during a Laser Alert will immediately kill Jamming. The Alert LED will stay illuminated on the Control Module and the External LED for as long as you continue to be targeted.

    Starting with the system powered up but, not in alert, a short press of the power button will disable the defense feature but still allow you to detect a laser hit? Just like when you are in alert?Just want to fully understand.

    You are not correct. When in normal operation a short press of the power button activates or disables the parking sensor alerts.

    This is awesome! I love this.

    When you mute the ALP, what sorts of audio/visual alerts are available when you're being shot? I saw the light stayed red for a while and then changed to blue a few sec after you stopped shooting. I'm curious how we can tell how long we continue to be shot and if we get reshot after we JTK.

    The light will continue to be red(ft alert) or yellow(rear alert) as long as that is blinking you are being targeted. As soon as its blue again you are ready for more action. I was thinking 60 seconds to rearm but I may be off on that

    I believe, and Best can correct me on this, that as long as you have your jam time set to unlimited (North America only), there is no reset time. After you've been hit, after it stops flashing red that signifies that you are currently being hit and, then, when the LED flashes blue, signifying you were just hit, at all times, the ALP remains in defense mode and is immediately ready to fire back the appropriate pulse train. This has been the result I get testing with my own laser. You think it would have occurred to me that I could have also tested the other features in my previous two questions, ha, ha! It's nice to get the definitive clarification from BRD though.

    If you are in LID = "Unlimited" the LED's will stay illuminated while targeted and go back to Blue when they stop. Once back in Blue if they hit you again you will be in defense mode again. If you have LID = "Time in seconds lets say 4 seconds" after you are no longer targeted the system will not go directly back into defense mode until 60 Seconds later. As Holla had mentioned the LED Color will also be a different color for a Front or Rear hit.
