Settings

SEN – Sensitivity Modes

  • Press SEN to adjust the X and K band radar detection sensitivity/range. Auto = speed adjusted. The slower you travel, the shorter the X and K band detection range.
  • At 50 mph and above, X and K detection range is at maximum. Ka band detection range is always at maximum, regradless of the SEN setting.

Auto No X

  • Auto No X works the same as Auto mode; however, X band is completely turned off.

Auto Lo K

  • Auto Lo K works the same as Auto mode; however K band sensitivity is lowered.

Highway

  • In this setting, Dual Pro 360 will detect all radar signals on all bands at maximum range.

Meter Mode

  • Dual Pro 360 offers three settings for displaying alerts:

Standard

  • The Standard option provides information on a single radar signal. When Dual Pro 360 detects radar, it displays the band of the radar (X, K and Ka), a bar graph of the front and rear signal strength
    (front is the left-most bar graph), along with front or rear arrow. When laser is detected, the display will simply read “Laser”. If there are multiple signals present, Dual Pro 360 will determine which one is the most important threat to display.

  • Frequency mode is the same as Standard but adds frequency information on the displayed radar signal.

Basic

  • Basic messages replace band and signal strengths. “Caution” is used when as alert is received while you are traveling below your current Speed Mute setting (or posted speed limit for current location, when connected to iRadar).
    Slow Down” is displayed when an alert is recived while you are traveling above thge current Speed Mute setting (or posted speed limit for the current location, when connected to iRadar).

Speed Mute

  • The Speed Mute feature allows you to modify your alert tones when traveling below a specified speed (factory default is 20 mph; see Settings and Preferences for details). For all alerts received while traveling below the specified speed, Dual Pro 360 will sound a simple double-beep alert.

GPS Filter/Locking Out False Alerts

  • Dual Pro 360 is equipped with a TrueLock GPS Filter to lock out and store in its memory false alerts. To lock out a false alert (X band, K band or laser only), press the MUTE button on the detector or the SmartCord three times durring an alert. Pressing the first time will silence the audio. Pressing a second time will generate a prompt on the display that will read “Lockout?” Press a third time to confirm you want to lock this signal out by location and frequency. A “Stored” message will be displayed. Once a signal has been stored, Dual Pro 360 will reject the signal the next time you approach this area and will display the locked out alert. To unlock a signal that has already been stored, simply press and hold the detector or SmartCord MUTE button while receiving the locked out alert.
  • The display will read “Unlock?” press and hold the detector or SmartCord MUTE button again to unlock it from memory. The display will then read Unlocked” to confirm your action. For details on how to turn the GPSfilter off, refer to the Settings and Preferences section.
  • NOTE: When the GPS filter is set to OFF, you do not have access to Dual Pro 360’s other GPS-enabled features (e.g., Database alerts, marking locations, etc).

Speed Alert

  • With Dual Pro 360, you can set the Speed Alert to notify you when you are traveling over a specified speed (factory default is 70 mph; see Settings and Preference for details). When you travel above the speed threshold you have set, the background display for your current speed will turn red to alert you that you have exceeded the specified speed.

AutoLearn

  • The AutoLearn feature analyzes (over time) the source of radar signals by location and frequency. This allows Dual Pro 360 to determine if a signal is a real threat or a false one. If it determines that the signal is an automatic door opener, motion sensor, etc., it automatically locks out this source at this particular location. A “Stored” message will appear on the display when a signal has been automatically locked out. If you prefer, you can turn the AutoLearn feature off. See the Settings and Preferences section for details.
  • NOTE: AutoLearn typically needs to encounter the exact frequency in the same location approximately three times to lock it out. Since some door openers are turned on and off routinely, some variations may occur. When AutoLearn is on, Dual Pro 360 will also unlearn signals to protect you from locking out real threats. If a particular signal is no longer present at a location that was previously locked out, Dual Pro 360 will unlock that signal.

Software Updates

  • Dual Pro 360’s red light and speed camera database is easily updated using our exclusive detector software tools found on our web site. Firmware, or the operating software for the detector, can also be updated using these tools. In order to have access to these updates, you must register your Dual Pro 360 at www.Cobra.com. Once registered, you will receive email notifications that updates are now available for your database or firmware. To handle your software and DEFENDER updates you need to connect your
  • Dual Pro 360 to a computer first. You can connect Dual Pro 360 to a computer via USB/USB Mini B cable.
