Radar detectors are a new generation of specialized equipment for the preventive detection of radars and traffic police video cameras on domestic roads. According to the principle of operation, it differs from traditional radar detectors, is safe for road users and is not prohibited by law in the Russian Federation.

However, radar detectors require proper installation, configuration and constant updating of databases. Why is this necessary, how is it produced and what results does it give?

Radar detector databases

Unlike anti-radars, which create frequency interference in front of a moving car, confusing traffic police equipment and making it impossible to detect a violation of the speed limit, detector radars do not emit anything, but constantly receive surrounding frequency signals and are able to isolate the signals of working police systems from the electronic “noise.” speed control.

To identify radars and video recording cameras, signature technology is used - the principle of determining the individual signal of each police device on the road (it is called a unique “signature”). Radar detector:

  • receives the emitted signal;
  • the signature module processes its parameters (amplitude, frequency and periodicity of pulses, pauses between pulses);
  • checks the parameters with known signatures of police equipment loaded into the database;
  • identifies the signal as a traffic police radar signal or as extraneous noise;
  • warns the driver to slow down.

That is, radar detectors are able to distinguish frequency pulses from traffic police control equipment and distinguish it from other frequency signals - emissions from door opening systems, mobile operator translators, ABS and GPS systems of cars, etc. This is the main advantage and advantage of signature radars.

How does the device distinguish the desired microwave signals from extraneous ones? For this purpose, the signature module contains a built-in database of all known traffic police radar signals. And in order to minimize errors and false alarms of the device, the radar database is supplemented with a database of known extraneous signals (“noise”), and the device is checked against both one and the other database, reducing the probability of error to a minimum.

However, equipment for traffic police is being improved, new radar models with more complex frequency radiation are constantly being released (often with combined microwave, laser and GPS signals). This means that the database of radar detectors must be constantly updated (upload new firmware).

How are radar detector databases updated?

Typically, updates to radar detectors are offered by equipment developers on official websites. An update is a new version of firmware, a program that fully controls all hardware functions and system options. When new options and data appear, the firmware:

  • downloaded from the developer’s website;
  • opens and installs on a PC to which the radar is connected via USB;
  • loaded into the radar memory.

Most operations are automated, but you need to perform a number of operations according to the algorithm recommended by hardware and software developers.

Procedure for updating SHO-ME radar databases

SHO-ME signature radar detectors are high-tech universal radar equipment made in South Korea. The radars are easy to install and configure, are trouble-free, and the developer quite often updates the database on its official website.

To update the radar databases, you must do the following:

  1. Go to official siteSHO-ME, select the “UPDATES” section and go to the “Updates for radar detectors” page.


  1. Open the “Radar detector type” list and select the device model that is installed on your car


  1. Click on “Update camera database” and select “Radar detector model”


  1. Below on the page you should click “Download camera database”.


  1. After this, you need to click on the downloaded archive and unpack it on your PC.


  1. The radar detector should be connected to a PC using a USB cable, having first turned off the mains power to the radar.


  1. The installer (file.exe) must be opened or run as Administrator.


  1. Next, a fully automated process of unpacking temporary files will begin, after which click “DOWNLOAD” and wait until the program is installed. The download process cannot be interrupted!


  1. After completing the installation of the new firmware version with updated databases, reboot the radar (Menu).


SilverStone radar detector database update

SilverStone radar detectors - modern equipment from one of the largest electronics manufacturers in South th Korea. The developer offers to download updates to the databases of radars and video recording cameras on yourofficial website.

The firmware update process is almost identical to SHO-ME radar updates:

  1. The radar is connected to a PC.
  2. The archive is downloaded from the developer's website.
  3. The downloaded archive is unpacked (pre-disable anti-virus programs and firewall).
  4. Select "Extract".
  5. Go to the unpacked program folder and run the installer.
  6. After 1-2 minutes, the program will install and warn you with a message about installing a new version.

Upon completion of installation, the program will display information about the firmware version (FW) and voice file (Voice).

At the beginning of the installation process, you can check the “Check” checkbox (checking for new files). After that, select the unpacked file with the .bin extension and click “Download to device.” Only new files will be downloaded, the firmware itself will not be affected.

In addition, before downloading updates, you can change the parameters of the radar menu (“Settings menu” - setting parameters - “Save” - set a point on the Menu item - “Download” - exit the program). With the new settings loaded, you can now download the installer to your device.


Thus, updating the databases on the radar detector will allow your device to constantly expand the list of signatures of traffic police control devices loaded into it and reduce the number of errors and false positives.

Updating the databases is a simple process that is performed in semi-automatic mode after you download the archive with the new firmware installer on your PC. The main thing is to be careful and follow the installation instructions exactly.

In this firmware DM3.G03.GXX.2.2.2.UR15 (NEW) / DQ3.G03.GXX.1.2.2.UR15 (OLD) The following changes have been made: updating the camera database.

How to choose the right firmware? Everything is very simple!
SN is the serial number (written on the device, on the box and the warranty card), the first 4 digits are the date: 1710 - October 2017. Those devices that were released before October 2017 have old firmware, those that were released after have new firmware.
For example, a70gps#161051023: 1610 is October 2016, only old firmware is suitable for this model.

Please do not try to update the device at home by connecting it via USB, there is not enough power from the USB, which leads to the DVR stopping turning on (the old firmware is erased, and the new one does not have time to boot)! The update file should be copied to a flash drive, take the device to the car and connect it to the on-board power supply!

Firmware- a program for controlling the functions of the radar detector, menus, voice and sound messages, display operation, GPS sensor and other hardware of the radar detector. The program is periodically updated as new features are added to it.


Today, there are many models of radar detectors from various manufacturers, each of which requires timely installation of database updates. In this article, we will look at this procedure using the example of several fairly popular radar detectors.

Despite the existence of a huge number of models of radar detectors, the required actions boil down to downloading and installing special files into the device’s memory. Typically, a program that performs operations automatically is used for this.

Option 1: SHO-ME

Database updates for SHO-ME radar detectors are released quite frequently and therefore the procedure must be repeated at high intervals. Installation of all required files, regardless of the specific model, occurs through special software.

  1. Open the official website of the device manufacturer using the link provided above and in the section "Updates" go to page "Updates for SHO-ME radar detectors".
  2. From the list "Type of radar detector" Select the type of device you are using.
  3. Click on the button "Updating the camera database" and in the line "Radar detector model" select the appropriate option.
  4. Scroll down the page and click on the link “Download camera database”.
  5. Using any archiver, unpack the downloaded archive.
  6. Now connect your PC to the SHO-ME radar detector via USB. The power cable must be disconnected.
  7. Open the EXE file by left-clicking on it. In some cases, you may need to run as administrator.

    After this, automatic preparation of temporary files will begin.

  8. In the main window "SHO-ME DB Downloader" press the button.

    Note: Do not interrupt the database installation under any circumstances.

  9. Remember to reboot your device before using it again using the button "MENU".

If you did everything correctly, the radar detector database will install without errors.

Option 2: SUPRA

As in the case of SHO-ME, you can update the database on the SUPRA radar detector using a special program downloaded from the manufacturer’s official website. However, the number of required actions is slightly different due to the need to download additional files.

  1. Through the main menu of the resource, open the page "Updates for RD".
  2. Expand the list "Select model" and indicate the device you are using.
  3. After downloading, click on the link "Download" Near "Software for updating", "Complete Database" And "Drivers".
  4. Three files should appear in the save folder on your computer, two of which are archived. Unpack them using any convenient program.
  5. Open the directory "booree_drivers" and unpack the archive with the driver according to the bitness of your Windows OS.
  6. From the final folder, run the EXE file and install the driver automatically.
  7. Return to the directory with the downloaded files and in the folder "updatetool_setup" run the installer.
  8. After installation is complete, run the program and in the field "BD" in the block "Update" click the button "Open".

    Specify the previously downloaded file .dbh with a database on a computer.

  9. Connect the radar detector to your PC via the USB interface and, if necessary, connect the charger.
  10. If the device is successfully detected in the update program, click the button.

In the future, the radar detector can be disconnected from the PC and used for its intended purpose. The database update procedure is now complete.

Option 3: Incar

Incar radar detectors are an excellent example of combining several different capabilities in one device. Moreover, the database in this case is updated in the same way as on other radar detectors.


Considering the minimum number of steps, we hope you were able to successfully complete the procedure for downloading a new database for the Incar radar detector.

Conclusion

If you have questions regarding updating a particular radar detector, write to us in the comments. We are concluding this article, since the examples discussed are more than enough to understand the procedure for installing a new database for radar detectors.

On this page you can download update files for radar complex databases or software for SHO-ME radar detectors.
Radar and camera databases are updated monthly. We recommend subscribing to the newsletter and downloading the databases as soon as they appear on the site, as this will provide you with complete and up-to-date information about stationary radars and cameras.
Software updates occur 1-2 times a year and are usually associated with correcting current errors and adding new functions that improve the consumer properties of devices.

Attention! To update the firmware and camera databases of your device, use a desktop PC or laptop.

Select the type of radar detector Radar detector SHO-ME Signature radar detector SHO-ME

Get information about firmware and GPS database versions

Turn on the device with the MUTE button pressed: the radar detector display shows the radar database version first, and the firmware version second. The database and firmware version is displayed in the YYYYMMDD format. (for example 20150828)

This procedure must be performed in the vehicle with power connected.

Note!

If you have the 2015 firmware installed (2-point), then you need to install the camera base with the 2015 firmware (“2-point base”). If you have the 2014 firmware installed (1 - point), then you need to install the camera database with the 2014 firmware ("1 - point"). To update the camera database, go to the section "3. Updating the camera database".

You can also update the firmware to 2015 (2-point) or return it back to 2014 (1-point), for this you need to go to the section
"Firmware update". After updating the firmware, it is always necessary to update the camera database.

Now there is no need to install drivers or update programs in EXE format.
The main condition before updating is to disable the antivirus.

Driver installation

The driver is installed on your computer to automatically detect the radar detector. Download and run the appropriate driver on your computer.

The driver must be installed on the computer before connecting the radar detector to the computer via a USB cable.

If the driver is not installed on the computer, then when you try to load the database, the message “Fail COM Port” or “Fail COM Port Connect” will appear. Install the driver again. Be sure to check if you have selected the correct driver file (32 or 64 bit).

If you don't know which OS (32-bit or 64-bit), it's easy to check:

If your computer is running Windows XP, follow these steps:

  • 1. Click the Start button
  • 2. Right-click on “My Computer”
  • 3. Select "Properties"
  • 4. If there is no message in the window that appears, the computer is running a 32-bit version of Windows XP. If "64-bit operating system" is listed under System, your computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows XP

To determine the type of operating system you are using for Windows 7 or Windows Vista, you must complete the following steps:

  • 1. Click the Start button
  • 2. Select "Computer" and right-click to bring up the menu
  • 3. Select "Properties"
