Snooper Lynx GT speed camera detector uses GPS and GPRS/GSM (mobile phone) technology to provide advanced warnings to speed camera locations via an airtime contract. The unit can be powered either via your vehicles car charger or via the built-in rechargeable battery - which provides up to 3 hours operation during normal use.

Alerts on the Lynx GT are given both audibly from spoken voice alerts and via the 2.7-inch full colour TFT LCD colour display so you always know what lies ahead. What makes the Lynx GT unique is that the speed trap data is fed from the AURA live database - the ONLY system from Snooper that gets its speed trap data like this - faster than any other Snooper GPS device, as you drive and without the need of a PC!

Snooper 'LIVE' product

Snooper Lynx GT is a 'LIVE' product and just like many mobile phones it uses GPRS/GSM technology to wirelessly connect to the network. The network in this case being the Snooper AURA LIVE speed camera database.

When using the Lynx GT LIVE in your vehicle it periodically connects to the AURA LIVE database adding (or removing, if relevant) speed camera locations within a 10 mile radius to a temporary database. Should you be driving in an area with a poor or no GPRS signal, then the Lynx GT will default to the preloaded database. ActiveGPS therefore recommends that you perform a database download from time-to-time using a Windows PC (not Apple MAC), which will permanently update the preloaded database.

Mobile site reporting

The 'LIVE' and connected AURA Live database works both ways - from Snooper and also back to Snooper. So It's also possible for motorists using the Lynx GT to add new and live mobile sites that they spot on the UK's roads. By pressing the large 'Target' button on the front of the Lynx, a mobile speed trap site is added to the AURA Live database and remains there for the following 6 hours.

Tracking

Snooper Lynx GT also operates as a portable tracking system. Using the airtime contract it is possible to track the position of your Lynx GT anytime the unit's switched on. It is also possible to view current as well as historical journey reports and other useful information including average speed and daily, weekly and monthly mileage.

Snooper AURA Live speed camera database

The Snooper Lynx GT, like all Snooper 'LIVE' products, gets it speed trap data from the Snooper AURA Live speed camera database. The database which is sent automatically to the Lynx GT provides advanced warnings of both fixed and mobile speed camera locations across the UK, Europe and in a growing number of other countries across the World.
