SUPERCHARGE YOUR REDLINE!

Band Segmenting & Radar Detector Rejection (BS & RDR). Default is on.


New software for all new RedLine's that provides BS & RDR features to increase radar detection dramatically as well as enhanced laser detection of a few newer laser guns.


RDR- When RDR is activated (default is on) two or more consecutive sweeps of Ka band are required before setting off an alert. This allows the RedLine to confirm if the initial alert is real or a false alert and if it should be suppressed. With RDR off it will trigger an alert on the 1st detection, no filtering at all.


We know turning off RDR will increase the RedLines range by quite a bit. However you will get falsing, especially from other RD's, so this is where you will want to Segment Ka to eliminate sweeping specific parts of the Ka Bandwidth were false signals reside but no real radar exists, like below 33.7 (ka1). Segmenting other portions of Ka will also help increase range/response, though RDR is the main feature increasing range/response.


The most popular radar bands used are 34.7 Ka 35.5 Ka & 33.8 Ka, so those segments you will not want to leave off (turn on 2/5/8).


BS- Now there is some amount of risk when you segment Ka band. For example if you come across an old version of the Stalker ATR that is operated at 35.2 and you keep Ka7 off it may cause a missed alert. In this case you could turn on the Ka7 segment as well as the normal 2/5/8.
But the best way to utilize the segments is run your RedLine in Spec mode (default BS/RDR settings) for a while so you can see the frequency's used in your area and adjust accordingly. You can also use the Geographical Survey to get an idea whats used in your area as well: RDF Geographical Survey - Radar Detector & Laser Jammer Forum (http://www.rdforum.org/wiki/index.php?title=RDF_Geographical_Survey) The key to segmentation is understanding what guns are used in your area (MPH 33.8 - Stalker 34.7 - Kustom/Decatur 35.5), and what risk are you willing to take (Possible out of tune gun) and segment accordingly. I may turn on Ka4 for the small chance a 34.7 gun is out of tune since I see 34.7 the most.


Ka1- (33.392 - 33.704) ON or OFF (default is off)


Ka2- (33.704 - 33.896) ON or OFF (default is off) 33.8 Turn On*


Ka3- (33.886 - 34.198) ON or OFF (default is off)


Ka4- (34.184 - 34.592) ON or OFF (default is off)


Ka5- (34.592 - 34.808) ON or OFF (default is off) 34.7 Turn On*


Ka6- (34.806 - 35.166) ON or OFF (default is off) -I recommend turning on this as well. I have encountered 3 34.810-.820 LEO's.


Ka7- (35.143 - 35.383) ON or OFF (default is off)


Ka8- (35.378 - 35.618) ON or OFF (default is off) 35.5 Turn On*


Ka9- (35.595 - 35.835) ON or OFF (default is off)


Ka10- (35.830 - 35.998) ON or OFF (default is off)


* Segments used by police across the US.


RDR- ON or OFF (default is ON) Turn off for best performance and no false filtering. Coupled with the segmentation options above you will have superior range/reactivity and little to no falsing.

Once you have set these options they will remain set in your RedLine, even between power cyclings, until you change them or restore the unit's factory default settings.


As a side note: When using Escort Live with the RedLine you may have to cancel the firmware update if it asks, just to be safe. ;)


Enjoy your RedLine!


Had a good encounter so I ran it both ways. I was very happy with the RedLines communication and great range!


Sorry for the poor video quality.

You can also adjust BS & RDR on EL:


Same settings on EL as my RedLine

In a NUTSHELL, RDR OFF and Ka Segments 2/5/8/ ON and the rest OFF........................... This turns your current Redline into a Redline XR and guess what, its free!!

I've segmented my Redline but what is everyone doing with all these false K band alerts from cars with that traffic monitoring system (or whatever t's called) on them? It gets very annoying driving down the road with one in your group. Some large trucks are doing the same thing upon approaching them.

This is the million dollar question that all the RD manufactures are trying to resolve. From what has been shared with me is that Escort has identified some of the most common characteristics of these anti-collision sensors and have developed a software program to help filter them out for their new Max 360.

Only time will tell how well it works and if this can be integrated in future firmware updates.

Activating TSR, though it does decrease K band sensitivity and in some cases Auto mode.

Ok CJR238, I'll give that a try and see how it goes. Thanks.

Roy advised me to turn TSR back on, which I did and my driving experience has improved greatly, especially in Ohio

I turned the TSR back on too and things have dramatically improved.

Yup, TSR will reduce K band sensitivity quite a bit and therefore help with falsing.
