User manual for laser atlanta?

[samq45]

Does anone happen to have a user's manual for a laser atlanta stealth speedlaser?
I got my hands on one and it looks like the construction version of the laser atlanta type r (it's yellow) with speedlaser software installed.

When you turn it on it says Stealth Speedlaser. I am unsure of the software version or how to find out. I cannot find a stealth mode, if there is one even available.

I can get range and speed readings quite easily and it does a fine job of setting off my blinder and my RX-65.

I can always e-mail laser atlanta, but I thought I would try here first.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You got it on ebay, didn't you? I was watching that auction...

Suf Daddy and I were talking about it. He thinks it might be an older model, before they started using different firmware in the Advantage and Speedlaser models. Newer Advantages don't do speed, distance only.

I wonder if JTW could get you a manual. Or Suf Daddy...

You are right kpatz, I had some spare change to spend...

An advantage manual came with it but none of the measurement functions (area, angle etc.) work or are even available in the menu. The only options have to do with speed measurement and other misc items.

Perhaps the firmware was upgraded or changed at one point as the speed functions work well, is that possible?

Here's the menu tree for the SpeedLasers. Stealth Mode hasn't been in any manual that I've seen, but that doesn't mean there's not a verion out there that does have it.

To get into Stealth Mode on the SpeedLasers, I believe it is Menu > C > A > B.
(Been a couple of months so one of the other guys can correct me if I'm wrong)

In the SpeedLasers, firmware version displays on power-up. It should say P/N XXXXXXXX for part number, and then VX.XX for formware.

Let us know if any of this looks similar to what is in your rangefinder.

Man did you snag my yellow laser gun ? hahah matchs my truck.. how much you end up paying ?

[kpatz]

Yeah seems to me like it's a Speedlaser in an Advantage case, or an Advantage that was reflashed with Speedlaser firmware. I wonder if some sneaky PD ordered it that way so they could set up speed traps pretending to be surveyors...

What's interesting is it powers up and says "Stealth Speedlaser". I wonder if that means it has stealth mode? Or maybe it's a "stealth" version of the Speedlaser because they put it in an Advantage case?

Does anyone know what a real Speedlaser's power-up message looks like?

yeah i noticed that in some pics....

How to turn on Stealth mode on Laser Atlanta gun:

1. Press Menu
2. Press C for Settings
3. Press A for Laser
4. Press B to turn Stealth Mode on
5. Press Menu to end.

When you pull the trigger of the Laser Atlanta after putting it in stealth mode you will hear the audio tone is different than normal mode. To put it back in normal mode, repeat the process to turn stealth mode off.

Laser Atlanta guns that are a lot older do not have stealth mode, so if it is not an option on the gun you obtained then it is pretty old. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info jimbonzzz.

The lidar menu that you posted is similar (and helpful) but not exacly the same as on the unit. Some of the options are on different screens and other options, such as changing the crosshairs to a dot I cannot seem to locate. I can find the test modes for range, volume controls, etc.

Kapatz, I am not sure but I think you may be correct about the unit being reflashed at one point. It is also possible that the case was replaced for whatever reason.

As jimbonzzz noted in his post when the unit starts is shows P/N XXXXXXXX for part number, and then VX.XX for firmware. Then it just shows STEALTH SPEEDLASER. It also shows this info when you enter the test mode. When I get home I will post the firmware version. I think it may be Ver 2.63 or 2.93 if I remember correctly.

Again thanks for your replies.

LOL:

I physically drove up and shot the gun..
Ver is 2.xx

and the unit has Speed function but no "stealth" laser afaik.

Strange the Screen says "stelth laser"..on theback....

The unit was silent for me and appeared to have a manual in the case. Unit was ultra clean and worked when checked against the Stalker.

Some reading where off but the test wasn't free from clutter.

I skipped on it as it wasn't a LEo unit.

it should work just fine for you.
