category word (i.e.
“

”
indicating Highway Hazard Zone Advisory) to quickly
orient you to the type of situation ahead. This
introductory message is followed by a specific Text
Message (i.e.
“
SSHHAARRPP CCUURRVVEE AAHHEEAADD
”
) and Digital
Voice Message which is repeated twice. After the
Digital Voice, the unit will continue to present the
message and provide the “clicking“ tone for as long as
an SWS
™
signal is detected. If two separate SWS
™
messages are received, each message is presented
twice before the “clicking” resumes.
You can replay the last SWS
™
message received by
pressing the DRK button within 30 seconds of
receiving an SWS
™
alert. Both Digital Voice and Text
Message are replayed.
If you have selected “
SSWWSStt oo nn ee
” (Digital Voice off),
your unit will show just the Text Message (see
Selectable Features, page 11).
Note—the end of a multiple word SWS
™
message is
indicated by an asterisk.
VECTOR 940 provides only Digital Voice and Text
Messages for the FIVE SWS

categories and not all
60 individual messages.
