Mounting the Device:

The detector detects low-level signals from and must be mounted a minimum of 3 feet away from cell phones, wearables, or any other devices emitting electrical noise. If the detector goes through a sequence of all colors, this indicates that it is detecting electrical noise.

How it Works:

When is first detected (up to 25 miles), the detector will flash all 8 LEDs for 5 minutes. To save battery life, after 5 minutes of detection, the detector switches to blinking every other LED for the remaining time that is detected (red, blue, or green depending on the distance of the ).
