The Wraith ARS 2X (Wraith Advanced Radar System) is a realistic police radar that takes heavy inspiration from the real Stalker DSR 2X radar system. The Wraith ARS 2X tracks both large and faster, smaller targets and displays the speeds of both in the target windows, meaning the radar can track 4 different speeds with both antennas turned on and transmitting. The system also has a plate reader built in that scans front and rear plates.
⦁ Realistic Design: Mimics real-world police radar and ALPR systems for immersive roleplay.
⦁ Easy-to-Use In-Game UI: Displays radar readings and plate information in a clean, minimalistic interface.
⦁ Visual and Audio Alerts: Alerts for speeding vehicles or flagged plates through sounds and screen prompts.
⦁ Toggle On/Off: Players can turn the system on or off based on their needs.
⦁ Multi-Vehicle Tracking: Monitors multiple vehicles simultaneously.
⦁ Logging: Option to log speed and plate scans for record-keeping and later review.
⦁ F5 - To toggle the remote control for the Plater Reader + Radar
⦁ ESC - To close the display of the remote control
⦁ NUM8 - Locks front antenna
⦁ NUM5 - Locks rear antenna
⦁ NUM9 - Locks front plate
⦁ NUM6 - Locks rear plate
⦁ L - Toggle Keylock
⦁ Toggle Display: This button is used to toggle the display state of the radar unit. Once the display has been enabled, the green button labeled “PWR” must be pressed to power the unit. Pressing the toggle display button when the unit is powered on will not power the unit off.
⦁ XMIT | HOLD: The XMIT | HOLD button is the primary way of making the associated antenna work, when pressed, it either places the antenna into transmit mode (XMIT) or hold mode (HOLD). When the antenna is placed into transmit mode, the XMIT icon will be illuminated. When the antenna is placed into hold mode, the XMIT icon will be switched off and the fast target window will display “HLd”.
⦁ SAME: The SAME button places the associated antenna into the SAME mode, this means the antenna will scan targets in the Same Lane Target Zone. A mode can be set without the antenna being in transmit mode.
⦁ OPP: The OPP button places the associated antenna into the OPP mode, this means the antenna will scan targets in the Opposite Lane Target Zone. A mode can be set without the antenna being in transmit mode.
⦁ PLATE READER: The PLATE READER button opens the plate reader menu, once the menu is open you can toggle the display of the reader, as well as set a BOLO plate for the system to look out for. The plate reader doesn’t require power to run, and therefore can just have the display toggled and it will work.
⦁ UI SETTINGS: The UI SETTINGS button opens the UI settings menu, from within this menu you can change the UI scale of the radar, remote, and plate reader. There is also a slider that allows you to change the safezone size, creating an invisible border around the edge of your screen. Once you have set the UI how you want, press the close button at the bottom.
POWER BUTTON: The POWER(PWR) button is a toggle switch that supplies the unit with power, the unit does not come on automatically with the patrol vehicle and must be manually turned on by clicking on it.
TARGET WINDOWS: The two orange windows on the left are the target windows. The top window displays the strongest speed for the front antenna, and the bottom window displays the strongest speed for the rear antenna. When a speed is displayed in one of the target windows, an arrow to the right of the window lets the operator know the direction the target vehicle is traveling relative to the patrol vehicle.
FAST/MIDDLE WINDOWS: The two red windows in the middle are multi-purpose windows, when the target windows are displaying a strong speed, the fast windows will display the faster target speed if there is one. The two icons to the left of the windows, FAST and LOCK, are used to indicate the state of the middle windows. Whilst a speed is displayed in either the target or middle windows, if the operator presses the front or rear lock key, a speed will then be locked into the relevant middle window, with the LOCK icon also lighting up. Every time an operator locks a speed, it will be followed by a two-word voice enunciator that lets the operator know the antenna/direction, these include: FRONT/AWAY, FRONT/CLOSING, REAR/AWAY, REAR/CLOSING.
PATROL WINDOW: The green window to the right is the patrol window, whilst the patrol vehicle is stationary, the symbol “[]” will be displayed. When the patrol vehicle is moving, the speed will be displayed.
The first press of the MENU button will load the menu and display this option. With faster target speed display on, the fast target windows will display the faster speed calculated by the unit. When it is off, the unit will only display strong target speeds. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the sensitivity (range) for the Same Lane mode. The ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 5 settings: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Lower values are more appropriate for driving on the highway, with higher values being better for monitoring traffic on long roads. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the sensitivity (range) for the Opposite Lane mode. The ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 5 settings: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Lower values are more appropriate for driving on the highway, with higher values being better for monitoring traffic on long roads. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the volume of the audible beeps from the unit, the ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 6 settings: Off, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The beep tones are off when set to Off and loudest when set to 5. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the volume of the verbal lock enunciator, the ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 6 settings: Off, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The voice enunciator is off when set to Off and loudest when set to 5. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the volume of the plate reader, the ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 6 settings: Off, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The plate reader audio is off when set to Off and loudest when set to 5. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
This option allows you to change the unit of measurement, as the Wraith ARS 2X can use either MPH or KMH for all calculations and display. The ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the 2 settings: USA (MPH) and INT (KMH). Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
Note: this option will only be displayed if the server owner has enabled it in the config file. This option allows you to change the fast speed lock state, with it set to on, the radar will automatically lock a speed if it is above the limit set in the next option. When it is off, the radar will function like normal. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
Note: this option will only be displayed if the server owner has enabled it in the config file. This option allows you to change the speed limit required for a vehicle to pass before it is automatically locked by the radar. The ↑ and ↓ buttons are used to cycle through the settings and range from 5 – 200 in steps of 5. Press any of the four Target Zone buttons to exit the Operator Menu.
By pressing the plate reader button on the Remote Control, a display will pop up that will register the plates of the vehicle in front of the police car and behind it. Using the hotkeys the plates will lock on the display and the LOCKED text will light up indicating that it is locked. Pressing the hotkey again will release the locked plate number.
Clicking on the UI Settings on the REMOTE CONTROL will open a window that will allow to edit the size of the Radar Display and the Plate Reader display.
