FeaturesAutoLearn: Artificial Intelligence Protection
The Escort Passport 9500ix is equipped with AutoLearn, which uses artificial intelligence to automatically "learn" (by exact location and frequency) each radar signal and determines if it's a real threat. The result is the most accurate long-range protection in the industry and a permanent solution to false alarms.
DEFENDER® Database
Speed traps and camera locations are everywhere. It's a stretch of highway where they always sit, or it's a back road that quickly changes from 45 mph to 25 mph within a few hundred feet. You don't always remember, but your Escort Passport 9500ix will. The detection experts at Escort have addressed the increasing number of "safety" cameras installed throughout the U.S. and Canada, by including red light and fixed-position speed cameras. Each model is shipped pre-loaded with thousands of these camera locations stored in its memory. As you approach these locations, the 9500ix will alert you in advance, keeping you up-to-date and ticket-free. You can even add your own "hot spots" using the exclusive Mark Location feature. And, since the number of "safety" cameras continues to grow each day, Escort will keep you updated.
Web Ready
The Escort Passport 9500ix is the first radar and laser detector that can be easily updated using your computer and the power of the internet. Simply connect your detector to your computer, log on to Escort’s website, and download the most up-to-date locations. You can even back up your data or update the detector's operating software, (firmware), if needed. The database is updated weekly, and Escort provides three months of downloadable updates for free. Defender® Database Subscriptions are also available to keep you up-to-date on future speed traps, red light cameras and speed cameras.
Variable Speed Sensitivity
Patented GPS technology makes your driving experience less complicated. For example, both models use GPS to vary X and K-band sensitivity based on your vehicle's speed. This allows the Escort Passport 9500ix to provide alerts based on what the vehicle is actually doing. At highway speeds you need the best long range sensitivity you can get. At slower speeds, the sensitivity can be adjusted to further reduce unneeded alerts, especially when you're not at risk. The actual alert changes to a short double-tone when your vehicle is moving less than 20 mph.
Simple and Intuitive Controls
The Escort Passport 9500ix is pre-set and ready to go. However, each setting can be customized for your specific type of driving and personal preference. The Preferences option allows you to change several options, including which radar bands you'd like to monitor, which meter you would like to see when a signal is detected and whether you'd like to see your vehicle speed during the initial alert.
SpeedAlert™ Provides Vehicle Speed During Each Alert
The Escort Passport 9500ix radar detector provides all the information you need to make an intelligent decision during each and every alert. The radar or laser band, signal strength, and now your vehicle speed are displayed during an alert to help you make the best possible decision.
Crystal-Clear Voice Alerts
Unique voice alerts provide clear communications for alerts and menu options. Now you can keep your eyes on the road without unnecessary distractions.
AutoVolume
The Escort Passport 9500ix will adjust the alert volume level based on the ambient noise in the vehicle. Using a miniature microphone, it monitors ambient noise and will increase the volume level automatically to ensure you take notice even with loud music, passenger conversations or excessive wind noise. Now each alert will be heard so you can react if needed.
Your Escort Passport 9500ix comes complete with comprehensive owner's manual, quick-release windshield mount, coiled SmartCord, quick reference card and a travel case.
