INTRODUCTION
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. It includes a plethora of features from the DSR 2X such as the new operator
menu, to improve the realism and experience whilst using the newest instalment from the collection of Wraith
radar systems. Previously with WraithRS, vehicle speeds were only displayed in the target window, with no
priority to certain vehicles (such as large and slower vehicles, or smaller and faster vehicles). 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. At the press of a button, the
operator can engage ‘key lock’ that prevents any of the key binds from working, helping to eliminate control
conflicts. The system also has a plate reader built in that scans front and rear plates.
HOW THE RADAR SYSTEM WORKS
When the radar display is enabled and either/both antennas are transmitting, the system sends out a signal that
acquires the speed and direction of travel from vehicles in the radar’s line of sight. All the collected data is then
sent to the radar’s processing core that calculates which vehicle speed needs to be displayed in which box, the
direction a vehicle is going relative to the operator’s vehicle is also displayed next to the target windows. As the
new system splits up larger and smaller but faster vehicles, the operator can more easily distinguish which
vehicle in their view is being displayed on the radar’s interface.
TARGET ZONES
Throughout this manual there are multiple references to the different areas of traffic that the radar system
monitors, they are known as target zones. The Wraith ARS 2X can monitor up to two zones at a time whilst both
antennas are transmitting. The four target zones are:
•Front Same
•Front Opposite
•Rear Same
•Rear Opposite
Due to the way that the radar system works, it treats the opposite target zones like lanes
instead of a diagonal signal being emitted from the antennas.
As of the current version of the radar system (1.0.0), only two target zones can be
monitored, in a future update, the system will be able to monitor four target zones up to
the operator’s discretion.

DEFAULT KEY BINDS
Below are a list of the default keybinds that come with the Wraith ARS 2X. Please note, if you would like to
change a keybind to a different key, open the pause menu, go to settings, then “Key Bindings”, then “FiveM”.
There you will be able to change any of the actions to a different key.

Although most of the actions listed above are self-explanatory, the keylock action may not be. When the
operator presses the key bind to toggle the keylock, all the radar’s key binds seize to work until the operator
toggles the keylock again. This functionality is like the keylock found in Lt. Caine’s ELS.
STARTING THE SYSTEM
At first glance, the Wraith ARS 2X may seem quite daunting, but the system itself is in fact quite simple. Below
are the steps which the operator should take to get the radar system and the antennas up and running.
1. Press the key to open the remote (default: F5)
2. Click the button at the top labelled “Toggle Display”
3. The radar interface should now be displayed, click the button on the radar labelled “PWR”
4. With the remote still open, click the button labelled “XMIT” for one or both antennas
5. Now that the antennas are in transmit mode, click the “SAME” or “OPP” button for one or both
antennas
Following these steps will result in the radar system becoming operational and the antennas detecting vehicle
speeds.

DISPLAY OPERATION
RADAR DISPLAY PANEL
The display of the Wraith ARS 2X has been completely redone to look more realistic whilst also giving the
operator more information about what the radar system is currently doing.
FUNCTIONS OF THE DISPLAY UNIT
POWER BUTTON:
The POWER 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.
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.
ICON DEFINITIONS
XMIT:
When the XMIT icon is illuminated, it means that the associated antenna is
transmitting. When it is off, the fast window will display HLd, indicating the associated
antenna is in hold mode and is not transmitting.
SAME:
When the SAME icon is illuminated, it means that the associated antenna is tracking
targets in the same lane Target Zone.
OPP:
When the OPP icon is illuminated, it means that the associated antenna is tracking
targets in the opposite lane Target Zone.
FAST:
When the FAST icon is illuminated, the associated fast target window will display faster
targets captured by the radar. This will only be lit if the fast display is enabled in the
operator menu. When the FAST and LOCK icons are illuminated, it indicates that a
faster target speed has been locked.

LOCK:
When the LOCK icon is illuminated, it means that the associated fast target window
contains a locked speed. If the FAST icon is also illuminated, it means that the locked
speed is a fast target speed.
↑ OR ↓:
A ↑ or ↓illuminated next to one of the target speed windows indicates the relative
direction of travel of the target displayed in the associated target window. The table
below defines what the arrows mean for the front and rear antenna.

REMOTE CONTROL USAGE
REMOTE BUTTON FUNCTIONS
Toggle Display:
This button is used to toggle the display state of the radar unit. Once the
display has been enabled, the green button labelled “PWR” must be pressed
to power on 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”.
↑ and ↓:
The ↑ (up) and ↓ (down) buttons (which are on the XMIT | HOLD buttons)
are used when in the operator menu to change the value of the currently
displayed option.

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.
MENU:
The MENU button opens the operator menu, when in the menu, the ↑ and
↓buttons are used to change the value of the currently displayed option,
with subsequent presses of the menu button changing the current setting
that is displayed. To exit the operator menu, press any of the mode buttons.
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.
HELP:
The HELP button opens a window that links to the help manual stored
externally, this manual describes everything in detail. The close button at
the bottom can be used to close the manual.
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 the plate reader.
There is also a slider which 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.
