A: Answeryes.Answered by Chatio001
Q: QuestionWhat does download mode mean on a cobra 480i mean(2 answers)
A: AnswerDownload mode is shown when you have connected RAD 480i to a computer using a USB-C cable. When software updates are available, you install them using the USB-C cable and your computer. Note that the detector does not operate when connected to a USB-C cable. For normal operation, use the included 12VDC power cable which connects to your vehicle's cigarette lighter adapter.Answered by Cedar Electronics Team
- A: AnswerI'm sorry, it does not. We have found that some aftermarket adapters that convert USB power into 12 volt power will work with our detectors. We also offer a direct wire option to bypass the lighter. Thanks!~
