Safety Warning System, or SWS, uses a
modified K-band radar signal. The SWS
safety radar system has 64 possible
messages (60 currently allocated). The SWS
messages your XR70 can display are listed
on the facing page.
From the factory, your XR70 is
programmed with SWS decoding ON. If
SWS is used in your area, your XR70 will
display the safety messages associated with
the signal.
NOTE: Some of the safety messages
have been condensed, so that each message
can be displayed on one or two screens on
XR70’s eight-character display.
Since Safety radar technology is
relatively new, and the number of
transmitters in operation is not yet wide-
spread, you will not receive Safety signals
on a daily basis. Do not be surprised if you
encounter emergency vehicles, road hazards
and railroad crossings that are unequipped
with these transmitters. As Safety
transmitters become more prevalent (the
number of operating transmitters is growing
every day), these Safety radar signals will
become more common.
