I bought my X50 used so I don't have the manual. I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off the silent alarm thing?

This morning I almost got nailed because I didn't hear the first beep, then it went to silent. I just happened to look at the clock and notice the red flashing on the power cord, so I hit the brakes. Come over a hill, and there is the radar trap.

Sweet, Thanks!

Ah Ha, Hold both buttons down for 2 seconds, then turn auto mute off. Those sneaky little bastards... both buttons....

Wasn't it 20 degrees this morning? Do KY cops work at that temp? :rolleyes:

Looks like we have a wannabe Friday dogpile recipient early.

Way to fire, big guy!

Hey Keith, why didn't you hear the first beep? Was it because of an earlier false alert that silenced the real one, music up too loud, no signal piped-in to helmet? Inquiring minds....
