AIMING
7
Must Aim Radar at Release Point
The Pro Radar System captures a speed reading by sending out a
focused beam of very low power radio waves and looking for them to
bounce off a moving object, such as a ball. These radio waves are
focused in a small cone shaped like a ashlight beam which comes out
the front end, where the arrow is pointing, on the Pro Radar Module.
When positioning the Pro Radar Module, make sure it is set up and
aimed directly in line with the release point of the ball. This can either
be from behind or in front of the path of where the ball is coming from
(see pg. 28 to learn more about angles and how tilting down or up may
affect a speed reading). Make sure the beam of the Pro Radar Module
is not blocked or obstructed. Please refer to the illustrations on the
next page and in the Quick Start Guide printed on the box for
examples of where the Pro Radar Module should be set up.

Standard Batteries
If powered via Alkaline C-size batteries, after the Self Test passes, the
Smart Display will ash “bat” for 1 second and then the current battery
level (either Lo, 1, 2, 3 or 4) for another second. Typical battery life with
Alkaline C-size batteries is 14 hours. See table below:
A unique feature that sets the Pro Radar System apart from other radar
module and sign combinations is that it can be powered either using
USB connection or Alkaline C-size batteries. This makes it extremely
portable and exible for indoor and outdoor use.
Power On - Self Test
If powered via USB or batteries, the Smart Display will ash “888” for 2
seconds, after pressing the Power (red) button. That means the Self
Test has passed and you are ready to start capturing speeds. If the
Self Test fails, then an error code will be displayed. The error code will
include “E #”, where the # species the error number (example: E 4).
This error code will ash every second for 2 minutes until it powers off
automatically. See Page 31 for more about Error Codes.
USB Powered
When using a USB Power Pack, the battery life will be dictated by the
specs of the Power Pack. See Page 22 for more about USB Power
Pack options.

Indoor
To avoid false readings from interference sources, you should use the
lowest Sensitivity / Range setting possible that will still pick up the speed
of the object you want to measure.
Outdoor
When using any speed radar, you should check the environment to see
if you pick up any interference readings from cars, radios or cell phone
towers, or other moving objects. Adjust the Sensitivity / Range down to
avoid these interference readings.

Pro Radar Module
The Pro Radar System is extremely exible and portable, which makes
it the ideal choice for measuring speeds either indoors or outdoors.
There are a number of ways you can set up the Pro Radar System, but
you need to ensure two key details in regards to setting up the Radar
Module to capture speeds accurately.
1. The Radar Module must be aimed directly at the release
point. This can be acheived whether the path of the ball is
coming towards or away from the Radar Module.
2. Make sure the Radar Module is not tilted up or down or
away from the path of the moving object, as this can affect
accuracy of the reading or make you miss the ball as well.
The ideal set up with the Radar Module would be mounting it onto a
camera tripod. The screw located on the bottom of the Radar Module
makes it easily attachable to standard camera tripods. Please refer to
the illustrated steps on the next page to set up your Radar Module.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Interference
Certain types of interference can cause all radar equipment to some-
times display false or so called “ghost readings,” or make it harder to
capture the speed of the intended object.
Movement: Any objects that rotate, move or vibrate can create a read-
ing. Large amounts of vibration, such as very loud noises, can result
in false readings. Things like motors, fans, nearby trafc or the move-
ment of tree leaves can be detected by the Pro Radar Module. In some
cases, if you are measuring speeds on a eld near a roadway, you may
pick up the speed of a car in the distance.
Electrical: Cell phones, cell towers, wireless devices, radio and TV
transmitters, computers, uorescent lights, televisions, walkie-talkies,
etc., can also possibly create a false reading.
Appliances
Cell Phones
Computers
Florescent Bulbs
Fan Motion
Microwaves
One technique to test for interference is to make a measurement in the
same direction with no obvious object in motion and see if you get a
speed to display.
PRO RADAR SYSTEM™
TROUBLESHOOTING
27
Ghost Readings
Radar devices are very sensitive instruments for measuring moving
objects of any kind. There may be times when the speed reading
displayed may not make sense, or when there is no apparent moving
object present. False readings of this kind are sometimes referred to
as “ghost readings”. These can result from either a movement of some
kind, such as a fan or hidden moving object, or an electrical source of
interference, such as a uorescent light, neon sign, computer monitor,
cell phone or cell phone tower nearby.
You will need to use your own judgment to decide if the speed measure-
ment makes sense. If the speed doesn’t make sense, you may have
a false reading. An example would be if the Display ashes 107 mph,
when you know the ball speed shouldn’t be any higher than 65 mph.
The Pro Radar System has software designed to ignore most of these
false ghost readings, but in certain cases there may be things in your
environment that may cause interference.
Tips to Eliminate Interference
If you are capturing random speed readings, there may be a solution to
your problem. Here are a few tips that may help:
• Change the Sensitivity / Range level of the Pro Radar
Module to a lower setting. As stated in page 10, your options
are 1(shortest range) to 10(longest).
• Use the lowest range setting that will reliably get the object
speed that you want.
• If the Pro Radar Module is positioned behind the release
point, try changing the location to be in front.
28
PRO RADAR SYSTEM™
TROUBLESHOOTING
Angles
A common mistake made with radar equipment is trying to measure
the speed of an object at an angle. Due to the nature of how Doppler
speed radar works, the Pro Radar System will measure most accurate
speeds when the object is moving directly towards or away from the
Pro Radar Module’s beam. If you set up the Pro Radar Module’s beam
even a slight angle sideways to the path of the moving object, you will
measure a SLOWER speed than the object actually travels along its
path. At slight angles the error is very small; however at larger angles
the error can become substantial. Please refer to the table below for
speeds related to off-angle issues.
29
PRO RADAR SYSTEM™
TROUBLESHOOTING
Cosine Error
This off angle speed measurement error is referred to as the COSINE
error, named after the mathematical function that allows you to calculate
the exact speed versus angle. The measured speed will always read
lower than the actual speed as you move off the centerline of the path
of the moving object. For small angles, this error will be very small. This
is why you see police ofcers pointing their radar along the direction of
the road; not down a side street pointing sideways to the road.
Each degree from center will cause your speed to read the noted % lower.

system will not shut off prematurely, but still maximizes the battery life
available from a set of Alkaline C-size batteries.
Auto - On: No
• Most users will nd that they do not want the Pro Radar System to
automatically power on when plugged in to a USB power source. The
Auto-On setting is not for all users. It is good for permanent installations
that want to have it power on when the AC power is turned on.
Brightness: Auto
• The Pro Radar System Auto mode will switch the display between
Lo and Hi automatically depending on ambient lighting conditions.
Outdoors on a sunny day, the display will automatically brighten when
showing speeds to enable further distance viewing.
