Speed traps are pretty sneaky and are usually located to catch unsuspecting motorists off-guard.but not if you're equipped with the 9500ix. All four speed cameras are nearly impossible for any radar detector to protect against, which is why the GPS-equipped 9500ix is the perfect system to protect against all speed detection threats. Photo cameras similarly do not use radar or laser signals and use multiple time-stamped photos to recognize speeding vehicles. Induction loop cameras are similar to red light cameras and do not emit a radar signal at all. Laser cameras are even more difficult to detect since the signal is so narrow and does not let off any radiated or leaked signals. Radar based cameras transmit a near-horizontal radar beam across traffic lanes, which is difficult for almost any detector to pick up from a long distance. Speed cameras are just as sneaky, and there are multiple types: radar, laser, induction loop, and photo-based. Thanks to intelligent design, the Passport recognizes an approaching red light camera system and visually and audibly alerts you of the threat. These systems do not emit a radar signal and are therefore undetectable by most other radar detectors.but not the 9500ix.

A photograph is taken of the car and a ticket is mailed to the vehicle's owner. Red light cameras are triggered by sensors built into the road, and activated when they detect a vehicle passing through the intersection illegally. The database is frequently updated, and Escort provides three months of downloadable updates for free. Thanks to an extremely comprehensive database, the 9500ix has the ability to alert you of speed cameras, red light cameras, and common speed traps across North America. Mark Location: Speed Traps, Red Light Cameras, Speed Cameras, and More The AutoLearn feature can also be toggled off in the main menu. If a particular frequency is no longer present at a flagged location, or if the frequency moves to a new location, say across the street or down the road, the Passport will unlock the signal. The 9550ix can also unlock specific signals to protect you from specific threats as well. If the detector picks up a specific frequency from a flagged location three times, it will acknowledge that as a false alert and will lock the frequency and location out of future alerts, alerting you of its decision with a single beep and displaying the locked frequency band on the unit's LED screen. The 9550ix scans for radar threats and associates the specific frequency of an alert to a specific GPS location. The 9500ix also features AutoLearn technology, an artificial intelligence that recognizes false alerts. However, if an actual speed enforcement threat should occur at that same location in the future, the 9550IX is intelligent enough to recognize the new radar frequency and will alert you in plenty of time.ĪutoLearn: Artificial Intelligence Protection When you discover a false alert, simply press the 'mute' button three times, and the 9500ix will record the exact radar frequency and GPS location in its memory, and ignore future alerts.

But thanks to the 9500ix's GPS-powered TrueLock filter, you'll never have to worry about false alerts again. Radar signals are used not only for speed radar guns, but also for everyday devices like the automatic door openers at your local grocery store or motion sensors for home and business alarm systems. It's no secret that radar detectors are susceptible to false alerts. TrueLock/GPS Filter: The False Alert Eliminator The brilliant red LED alpha-numeric display is easily read in direct sunlight, and features five selectable levels of brightness for optimum night or evening use. Distinct audible, visual, and voice alerts provide a separate warning for each band of radar, as well as laser, and traffic safety warnings. As you approach a potential threat, the detector provides an instant audible and visual alert. The Passport's GPS system takes advantage of the same satellites used for GPS navigation to pinpoint your exact location and compares it to the detector's on-board database of red light and speed camera locations.

It even eliminates annoying false alarms. It detect all bands of speed enforcement radar (X, K, Ka, and Ku) from both front and rear, and its programmable GPS-enabled circuitry ensures you won't be caught off-guard by hidden speed traps or pesky speed cameras. The Escort Passport 9500ix is an intelligent and effective radar detector.
